## About the Role

* Strong expertise in Linux Kernel Development, especially Memory Management (MM subsystem).
 * Hands-on experience with device driver development (PCIe, NVMe, or similar high-speed interfaces).
 * Deep understanding of low-level programming in C/C++ (Assembly is a strong plus).
 * Solid knowledge of hardware-software interaction, including DMA, cache coherency, and memory subsystems.
 * Experience with virtualization technologies (KVM, QEMU, IOMMU).
 * Strong debugging skills in complex, low-level environments., * Experience with CXL (Compute Express Link) or next-gen memory architectures.
 * Exposure to Python, gRPC, or REST APIs for tooling, automation, or integration.
 * Familiarity with ARM or RISC-V architectures.
 * Contributions to mainline Linux kernel or open-source projects.
 * Knowledge of AI/ML or data center workloads at the system level., * MS/BS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field.

## Description

* Design and optimize Linux kernel memory management (paging, allocation, HugePages, page cache, LRU).
 * Develop and maintain Linux device drivers for high-speed interfaces such as PCIe (Gen5/6), NVMe, and accelerator hardware.
 * Work on heterogeneous memory systems, including UVM, memory tiering, and CXL-based memory expansion.
 * Enable and optimize virtualization environments using KVM and QEMU (IOMMU, interrupt handling, memory virtualization).
 * Collaborate with hardware teams on SoC bring-up, register definitions, and memory architecture (ARMv9 / RISC-V).
 * Perform low-level debugging and performance tuning using kernel tracing tools, hardware debuggers (TRACE32), and emulation platforms.
 * Contribute to system-level architecture and resolve complex performance and memory-related issues.
