Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline. Or Equivalent experience
Strong proficiency in C and C++
Understanding of memory management, multithreading, synchronization primitives, and inter-process communication (IPC) in an embedded Linux context
Minimum 2–5 years of hands-on experience in embedded software development
Comfortable working day-to-day in a Linux command-line environment as a primary development platform (no GUI dependency)
Proficient with Bash scripting for task automation, build scripting, log parsing, and development tooling
Experienced with standard Linux utilities and command-line tools: grep, awk, sed, find, make, tar, ssh, scp, rsync, and similar
Familiar with Linux process management and monitoring tools: ps, top, htop, strace, lsof, dmesg.
Able to use gdb and related tools for debugging applications on Linux targets
Experience using git/svn from the command line, including branching, rebasing, cherry-picking, and resolving merge conflicts

Knowledge of video/audio signal processing concepts relevant to broadcast SDI/TDM/MADI
Understanding of data communications fundamentals, including Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking protocols (TCP/IP, UDP, VLAN, multicast).
Familiarity with broadcast industry networking standards such as ST 2022, ST 2110, NMOS, or PTP/IEEE 1588
Familiarity with Open Telemetry (OTel) for instrumentation, observability, and diagnostics in embedded or systems software; experience collecting and exporting telemetry data (traces, metrics, and logs) from Linux-based applications to backends
Familiarity with graphics rendering on embedded Linux platforms, including experience with OpenGL ES, Vulkan, or similar APIs; exposure to GPU-accelerated rendering pipelines and direct framebuffer management using DRM/KMS is an asset. Experience with GPU-accelerated rendering in headless or resource-constrained embedded environments is a plus
Experience with FPGA development or familiarity with HDL (VHDL/Verilog)
