Robotics OS Engineer — Real-Time Embedded Linux

Meta; Redmond; Sur place; AUD 315 000 - 433 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Meta Robotics Studio is hiring a software engineer to architect and evolve the Robotics OS for Thor-class robots. You will shape multi-year technical direction for BSP, kernel, OS image and update systems, balancing real-time control with AI workloads on NVIDIA Jetson hardware.

You will collaborate across hardware, firmware, controls, and AI teams, aligning with Jetson Linux/JetPack releases, and help scale prototypes into a production fleet while ensuring secure boot and reliable updates.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in CS/CE or equivalent practical experience.
• 10+ years of experience shipping embedded Linux or Android-based system software.
• Experience architecting and owning an OS, BSP or platform stack on shipped hardware.
• Deep experience with C and Linux kernel internals including drivers, device tree, interrupts, memory management.
• Proficient in C++, Rust or Python.
• Experience driving new-SoC or new-board bring-up on ARM64 from boot to production OS.
• Experience designing OS image build and release systems (Yocto/OpenEmbedded, Buildroot, Debian, or AOSP) including update strategies.
• Experience debugging cross-layer hardware/firmware/kernel/user-space problems.
• Experience influencing technical direction across multiple teams or external vendors.

Responsabilités

• Contribute to the technical strategy and multi-year roadmap for the Robotics OS (BSP, kernel, OS image, update system, real-time behavior, GPU platform, fleet tooling).
• Architect the next-generation OS image, including move to a Yocto / meta-tegra build; make it hermetic and fast to iterate on.
• Define and drive production update strategy: atomic A/B, OTA, rollback, secure and verified boot, fusing and signing, provisioning for fleet scale.
• Shape the platform's real-time architecture: define CPU core distribution, interrupts, memory, GPU partitioning and latency budgets with measurement infra.
• Collaborate with NVIDIA's Jetson teams and Meta engineers; push fixes upstream and align with Jetson Linux / JetPack releases.
• Partner with electrical, firmware, and mechanical engineers on compute and carrier-board designs; advise on SoC config, interfaces, power and thermal.
• Drive bring-up of new boards/modules end to end: boot chain, BPMP, device tree, pinmux, PCIe/USB/Ethernet, drivers for robot hardware.
• Help set the quality bar for RT kernel and out-of-tree drivers: kernel config, ABI compatibility, upstream plans.
• Build reliability/observability: crash and kernel-log capture, symbolization, boot-time tracing, health telemetry, fleet triage tooling.
• Raise the bar for engineers via design reviews, mentorship, and technical hiring; shape on-call practices.
