Job description
As an Embedded Linux Engineer, your mission will be to design, bring up, and maintain robust Linux-based systems on advanced embedded platforms. You will be responsible for the complete Linux lifecycle on Cortex-A SoCs and AMD Versal FPGA-based platforms, ensuring reliable boot, configuration, update, and long-term maintainability of our embedded products.
You will work closely with hardware, FPGA, and software teams to transform new platforms into production-ready Linux systems., * Bring up Linux on embedded platforms based on ARM Cortex-A and AMD Versal architectures
- Configure, build, and customize bootloaders (e.g. U-Boot) and Linux kernels
- Design and control the boot sequence, from power-on to user space
- Integrate and configure device trees, drivers, and board support packages (BSPs)
- Set up and maintain build systems (Yocto, Buildroot or similar)
- Define and implement flashing and deployment procedures
- Design and maintain robust software update mechanisms (field updates, rollback strategies, etc.)
- Debug low-level boot and runtime issues (bootloader, kernel, root filesystem)
- Collaborate with hardware and FPGA teams during board bring-up and validation
- Produce clear technical documentation for systems, processes, and procedures, You will be part of one the fastest-growing start-ups in Spain with global reach along getting into the challenging world of New Space & Telecommunication.
