 This is a hands‑on, hardware‑proximal role focused on enabling new platforms, building robust BSPs, and delivering reliable system performance on ARM‑based architectures.

- Lead BSP development, hardware enablement, and board bring‑up activities.
- Design and implement Embedded C software for constrained environments.
- Own and enhance bootloader functionality and early system initialisation.
- Configure, integrate, and debug the Linux kernel for new and existing platforms.
- Build, customise, and maintain Yocto‑based Linux distributions.
- Work closely with hardware, firmware, and systems engineering to resolve issues early and ensure smooth integration.
  
 About You
- Strong experience in embedded software development within engineering or technology environments.
- Proven background in BSP development, device drivers, bootloaders, and kernel‑level work.
- Solid understanding of Yocto, build systems, and Linux internals.
- Confident working with ARM processors, toolchains, and debugging tools.
- Analytical, detail‑focused, and able to collaborate effectively across functions.
  
 Qualifications
- Degree or equivalent experience in Embedded Systems, Electronics, Computer Engineering, or similar.
- Experience with BSPs, Linux kernel development
- Yocto is highly advantageous.
