Job Description

The team is building foundational software to enable faster and more efficient firmware development across the organization. Such software includes simulation frameworks for various stages of pre-silicon development, Real Time Operating System (RTOS) improvements and support, as well as Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment systems. In this role, we are looking for a Zephyr RTOS developer, with previous Zephyr experience to improve our Zephyr infrastructure and best practices, as well as develop drivers and tooling for our products.

Responsibilities:

• Write new, or modify existing, Zephyr firmware such as drivers to enable next generation products.
• Modularize existing firmware to simplify maintenance and reduce tech debt.
• Leverage device tree configs to support the same firmware running against simulation, emulation and physical hardware.
• Identify gaps in test Zephyr test coverage and write tests to improve on it.
• Improve development and test infrastructure and its integrations into existing systems to support other firmware developers.
• Engage with the upstream Zephyr community and back-port upstream changes.
• Upstream new code into the open source repository when appropriate.
• Establish and document best practices for Zephyr development and communicate those to other developers.
• Estimate project complexity, break it down in to milestones and estimate completion times.
  

• Bachelor\xe2\x80\x99s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field with 2 years of relevant work experience.
• Minimum of 1 year experience developing code in the Zephyr RTOS (Real Time Operating System) code base.
• Experience engaging with the Zephyr community and contributing code to upstream.
• Experience with firmware design, implementation and testing.
• Experience triaging and debugging software issues.
• Knowledge of C, Python and Shell programming languages.
• Ability to plan a project, break it down into milestones and estimate completion times.
• Ability to effectively communicate with others asynchronously through chat or email.
• Ability to work independently with little supervision.
• Ability to receive feedback and incorporate it into future tasks.
