Descripción del empleo

iPronics is a deep-tech startup developing silicon photonics optical circuit switches. Over the past years we've built a growing IP working closely with a patent attorney firm specialized in IP. Learn more about us at ipronics.com

Main Responsibilities:

The Electronics Software Engineer will be involved in the following responsibilities:

• Design and develop the software layers and services that expose the physical devices of the system to higher-level applications.
• Own the embedded Linux platform: image and BSP maintenance, kernel configuration and build, device tree description of the board, and root filesystem generation.
• Maintain and troubleshoot the boot flow of the target, from the first stage after power-on through the bootloader to a fully running system.
• Bring up new board peripherals and create, port, or modify drivers when standard support is not available.
• Implement and maintain the communication with the physical devices, inside the board and towards external equipment.
• Testing, profiling and performance analysis of the software developed, running on real hardware.
• Collaborate with the electronics, FPGA, photonics and application teams to understand the subsystems controlled by the core software layer.

Ideal Candidate Requirements:

Education: Degree in Electronics, Telecommunications, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience

Experience: 5+ years (senior) in embedded Linux or low-level systems software.

Technical Skills:

• Advanced level of Python.
• Solid Linux fundamentals from a systems perspective: processes, services, filesystems, permissions, logging and networking.
• Embedded Linux build systems, cross-compilation, image and rootfs customisation.
• Working knowledge of BSP, device tree and kernel configuration, compilation and modules.
• Understanding of the boot chain of an embedded target.
• Proficiency in C to work with kernel-side code and drivers when needed.
• Communication protocols from the operating system side: buses and network interfaces.
• Debugging on target: serial console, system logs, and the usual tracing and debugging tooling.
• Git workflows, code review and software testing practices.

Nice to have:

• Experience with Rust (highly valued).
• Experience on SoC platforms combining a processing system with programmable logic (FPGA).
• Real-time Linux, latency and determinism analysis.
• Containers on embedded targets, OTA updates, secure boot and image signing.
• CI/CD for embedded targets, including hardware-in-the-loop test benches.
• TDD/BDD frameworks and software design patterns.
• Hardware validation using lab equipment (oscilloscope, logic analyser).
• Git portfolio and/or open-source contributions.
• Prior experience in photonics or optical systems.
• Experience in hardware validation using lab equipment.
• Soft Skills: Team player, continuous learner, communicative, adaptable, problem-solving oriented, with ownership of the platform they maintain.

What we offer:

• Permanent full-time position
• December 24th and 31st off
• One extra day off during your birthday month
• Private health insurance
• Flexible compensation plan (restaurant tickets, transport, and childcare vouchers)
• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge photonic technologies for AI infrastructure
