Job description

We're looking for a versatile and highly motivated Software Engineer to join our team. In this role, you'll play a crucial part in enhancing our engineering capabilities across the entire software development lifecycle.

You'll be instrumental in developing and optimizing our build, test, and release processes, ensuring the quality and stability of our products through comprehensive testing, and deriving actionable insights from system telemetry. This position requires a strong problem-solver who thrives in a collaborative environment and is passionate about driving efficiency and quality through automation and data.

Job Description

What you will be doing:

• Build, Release & Infrastructure Automation: Design, implement, and maintain robust build flows for embedded software; automate complex release processes; and manage underlying infrastructure for continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines. Troubleshoot build failures and infrastructure issues and optimize CI/CD workflows for efficiency and reliability.
• Comprehensive Testing & OS Vetting: Develop and enhance automated frameworks for System-on-Chip (SOC) validation, including daily sanity and regression testing. Integrate testing scripts into CI/CD pipelines to ensure continuous quality. Perform thorough sanity testing of various System Windows and Linux hardware and software components, ensuring high-quality releases. Develop comprehensive regression reports and scale stress/smoke testing on device farms.
• Data Analytics & Telemetry: Implement metrics collection and analytics systems to monitor software, build quality, and performance. Analyze telemetry and log data from distributed systems to identify patterns, anomalies, and derive actionable insights that guide development priorities and improve product quality.

What we need to see:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Data Science, or a related technical field (or equivalent experience).
• 5 years of professional experience as a Software Engineer, with significant contributions in at least one, and preferably more, of the following areas:
  • Build & Release Engineering / DevOps: Experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, build systems, and infrastructure automation.
  • Software Quality Assurance / Test Automation: Proficiency in developing automated test frameworks, writing comprehensive test suites, and performing system/OS validation.
  • Data Engineering / Systems Analysis: Experience with data ingestion, processing, analysis, and visualization from telemetry and logs to derive insights.

Technical Skills

• Automation: Python, Bash/Shell scripting, C/C++, pytest, robot or similar
• CI/CD & Build Tools: Jenkins, GitLab CI, Make, CMake or similar
• Cloud & Analytic Platforms: AWS, Azure, OpenSearch, Logstash/Fluent
• Operating Systems: Windows (ETW, WMI), Linux (systemd journal, syslog, dmesg)

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Strong programming skills in Python, Bash, or other automation scripting languages.
• Experience with CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI) and Version Control Systems (Git, P4).
• Understanding of software testing methodologies and experience with test automation frameworks (e.g., pytest, Robot Framework, Unittest).
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure) and/or observability stacks (e.g., OpenSearch/Elasticsearch, Kibana) for data processing, log aggregation, and visualization.
• Working knowledge of Windows OS, Linux, and their respective diagnostic and monitoring tools (e.g., ETW, systemd journal, dmesg, eBPF).

Salary and Benefits

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 148,000 USD - 235,750 USD for Level 3, and 184,000 USD - 287,500 USD for Level 4. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
