Job Description

Senior Embedded Systems Engineer (Linux, Xilinx, Video)
 High Wycombe / Thames Valley area (Hybrid) – 6 – 12 month contract
 For more details contact Adam Mayne, (url removed)  (phone number removed)
   
 We are seeking a highly experienced Embedded Linux specialist to work with a cutting‑edge engineering team developing custom Xilinx‑based platforms. This is a hands‑on role focused on board and system bring‑up, sitting at the boundary between FPGA, boot chain, Linux BSP, and video/display integration, rather than application‑level software.
   
 You will work closely with FPGA and hardware engineers in a lab environment, helping to drive early hardware platforms through bring‑up and into a stable development or product state. The position suits a senior consultant or engineer who enjoys low‑level debugging, hardware/software integration, and solving complex system‑level problems.
   
 Rate is negotiable depending on experience.
   
 Responsibilities of Senior Embedded Systems Engineer (Linux, Xilinx, Video)
  
Work closely with FPGA developers during board and system bring‑up 
Support Embedded Linux integration on Xilinx‑based SoCs / MPSoCs 
Build, customise, and maintain Yocto / PetaLinux‑based distributions 
Debug boot flow issues including U‑Boot, kernel, and device tree 
Investigate and resolve hardware/software integration problems 
Support video and display pipeline integration and troubleshooting 
Contribute hands‑on in the lab to move platforms from early bring‑up to stable operation 
Collaborate effectively with hardware, FPGA, and system engineers    
 Requirements of Senior Embedded Systems Engineer / Bring‑Up Engineer
  
Strong experience with Xilinx SoCs / MPSoCs (Zynq, Zynq UltraScale+) 
Proven experience with Embedded Linux bring‑up and BSP development 
Strong knowledge of Yocto and preferably PetaLinux 
Experience with device tree, U‑Boot, kernel configuration, and low‑level debugging 
Hands‑on hardware/software integration experience 
Comfortable working in a lab-based bring‑up environment 
Ability to work independently while collaborating closely with cross‑disciplinary teams 
Strong problem‑solving and technical communication skills    
 Highly Desirable Experience
  
Video pipeline and display integration experience 
DisplayPort knowledge 
DRM/KMS, V4L2, GStreamer, or related Linux video/display stacks 
Low‑level driver or platform‑level integration work 
Experience with custom board bring‑up    
 Working Model: Hybrid, with some onsite presence required due to lab and bring‑up activities
