Job description

Who we are: Lynx delivers modular, open standards-based software solutions that redefine the economics of developing, deploying, and maintaining high assurance, mission critical edge platforms. These secure edge computing solutions are designed to drive innovation and operational excellence in today's most demanding environments. From advancing aerospace and defense capabilities to transforming commercial and industrial systems, Lynx collaborates across a wide range of industries, including automotive, medical, and critical infrastructure, to deliver tailored, high assurance solutions aligned with specific mission and operational requirements. Our key products and services are:

  • LYNX MOSA.ic: A software platform that can include a LYNX safety-critical real-time operating system. MOSA.ic's modular design provides robust support for multicore processing. It allows different operating systems and applications of different criticality levels to be run on separate cores for improved performance, reliability, and security.
  • CoreSuite 2.0: A suite of graphics libraries and tools that enable GPU hardware acceleration for both graphics and "GPU Compute", supporting applications such as machine learning and AI processing in edge devices.
  • MOSA.ic.SCA and Vigiles, tools that provide Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) and Common Vulnerabilities Exposure (CVE) management for embedded Linux-based and other applications.
  • Software development services for high-reliability applications that can include initial setup of a "DevSecOps" development environment, software application development, and long-term product lifecycle management., We are seeking a Embedded Software Developer to drive the technical direction, architecture, and implementation of our LynxOS-178 RTOS and hypervisor features for our Mosaic platform per customer needs. This role requires deep expertise in driver development, virtualization across x86 and ARM architectures, as well as the ability to influence product roadmaps, guide cross-functional teams, and tackle the most complex technical challenges. You will be instrumental in ensuring our LynxOS-178 RTOS and hypervisor solutions meet the demanding performance, scalability, and safety-critical requirements of aerospace, defense, industrial, and edge markets., · Develop and maintain software for embedded systems, ensuring real-time performance and reliability.

· Integrate, develop, and optimize core hypervisor components with a focus on performance, scalability, and security.

· Troubleshoot and resolve complex system-level issues, including differentiating hardware vs. software challenges.

· Ensure integration with RTOS, Linux, and mixed-criticality applications within Mosaic., The Embedded Software Engineer will develop and verify embedded software per DO-178C guidelines for safety-critical avionics systems, collaborate with various teams, and perform testing on target hardware.
