Responsibilities

Design and implement Linux kernel and userspace drivers for our custom and third-party hardware

Debug problems that cross the hardware/software boundary, often with early hardware and incomplete information

Comfort with ambiguity

Deep systems programming experience in C on Linux
Hands-on Linux kernel development experience — you've written and shipped drivers, not just read about them
Strong understanding of how hardware and software interact: buses, interrupts, DMA, memory-mapped I/O
Experience designing long-running system services and their interfaces
Comfort with ambiguity: new hardware, evolving specs, and problems nobody has hit before
Clear communication with teams outside software

Experience with hardware bring-up on new platforms
Contributions to the Linux kernel or related open-source infrastructure projects
Familiarity with platform management standards and server-class hardware
