Sound Recording and Reproduction Software Debugging Linux Linux on Embedded Systems Open Source Technology Software Engineering Real Time Systems

Requirements

You will design, develop, and troubleshoot Linux based audio solutions for embedded and connected products. You’ll work across the software stack to integrate complex systems, solve challenging technical issues, collaborate with engineering teams, and provide guidance on architecture and implementation decisions. The role also involves contributing to related open-source components where appropriate.

We’re looking for someone with strong experience developing and debugging Linux based audio systems, including hands on knowledge of modern audio frameworks. You must be proficient in C and systems level software development, with an understanding of core audio concepts and the ability to troubleshoot complex issues across multiple layers of a Linux environment.

Experience working directly with external stakeholders or product teams is important, as is familiarity with open-source development workflows. Exposure to embedded Linux and real time systems would also be highly beneficial.

If you’re passionate about Linux, audio technology, and solving the kind of problems that require both technical depth and practical engineering judgment, we’d love to hear from you.
