Embedded Firmware Engineer (Media Player Systems) | Immediate Joiners Preferred

We’re seeking a passionate Embedded Engineer to design, develop, and optimize advanced media playback systems for next‑generation advertising solutions. This is a ground‑level opportunity to shape a world‑class technology platform.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect, develop, and maintain high‑performance media playback solutions using C++17/20 or Rust.
• Work with Linux internals (Ubuntu, Debian, Buildroot/Yocto) and cross‑compile for ARM (RK3588, Jetson, Raspberry Pi) & x86 (Intel NUC).
• Integrate and optimize media frameworks like FFmpeg, GStreamer, VLC internals.
• Implement hardware‑accelerated decoding (Intel QuickSync, NVIDIA NVDEC, ARM VPU).
• Develop playback using CEF/WebKit for HTML5 scenarios.
• Ensure secure communication with TLS, certificates, and mTLS.
• Build OTA update systems, rollback mechanisms, watchdog timers.
• Optimize filesystems, caching strategies, and creative delivery.
• Implement Proof‑of‑Play logging & analytics tracking.
• Collaborate on SDK integrations (NovaStar, Colorlight, Huidu, Linsn).
• Work on low‑latency playback, live media feeds (RTSP, HLS, WebRTC).
• Enhance IoT security (secure boot, signed manifests, system integrity).

Required Qualifications

• Proven experience in C++17/20 or Rust for embedded development.
• Strong Linux knowledge and cross‑compilation experience.
• Hands‑on with ARM & x86 platforms and media acceleration.
