Ensure software quality through robust validation and debugging practices

Your Background
Proven experience with the Yocto Project (layers, recipes, image customization)
Strong C programming skills for Linux kernel driver development
Experience with Git, embedded system debugging tools (GDB, JTAG, etc.)
Familiarity with ARM SoCs, device trees, and secure/unsecure boot processes
Degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, or related field

Bonus Skills
Knowledge of Xilinx MPSoC or NVIDIA Jetson Orin
Understanding of embedded networking protocols (PCIe, UART, SPI, CAN, etc.)
Experience with CI/CD (GitLab pipelines), cross-compilation, and low-resource systems

Why Apply
Join a mission-focused team solving real space engineering challenges
Work on advanced space-grade technologies alongside world-class experts
Access dedicated learning and development pathways, including space education programs
Be part of a culture that values transparency, ownership, and continuous improvement
