• Hands-on work building or customizing embedded Linux systems using Yocto.
• Strong knowledge of Linux internals, including processes, memory, IPC, and filesystems.
• Practical use of Linux debugging tools such as gdb, valgrind, and strace.
• Background developing applications with the Qt Framework (Qt/QML, Qt Widgets).
• Familiarity with Git and Atlassian tools, including Bitbucket, Jira, and Confluence.
• Exposure to IoT platforms, telematics systems, wireless devices, or connected products.

Where and When You'll Work:

• This is an in-person role located at our Greene, New York office - ideal for those who thrive in a hands-on, team-oriented environment.
