About The Job
We're building a next-generation, application-class RISC-V MPU SoC platform for Linux systems - bringing together multimedia, industrial connectivity, security, and heterogeneous compute subsystems.
In the Platform Software team, you'll own key pieces of Linux bring-up and SDK validation, partner closely with architecture and hardware teams, and help shape SoC/CPU decisions with hands-on data from pre-silicon, FPGA, and first-silicon debug.

We're building a next-generation, application-class RISC-V MPU SoC platform for Linux systems - bringing together multimedia, industrial connectivity, security, and heterogeneous compute subsystems.
In the Platform Software team, you'll own key pieces of Linux bring-up and SDK validation, partner closely with architecture and hardware teams, and help shape SoC/CPU decisions with hands-on data from pre-silicon, FPGA, and first-silicon debug.
Key Responsibilities
- Linux SDK development & validation : build, enable, and release a production-quality SDK for a 64-bit RISC-V MPU.
- Enable the boot and firmware stack (boot flow, early platform initialization, U-Boot, OpenSBI).
- Drive Linux kernel/BSP enablement : SoC bring-up, Device Tree, CPU/memory/interrupt subsystems.
- Develop and debug device drivers (multimedia, connectivity, DMA, power/clock/reset, platform services).
- Deliver SDK releases : integration, validation, and developer-facing documentation.
- Pre- & post-silicon validation (AVV) : create tests, validate FPGA/first silicon, and unblock teams through system-level debug.
- Contribute to pre-silicon validation using FPGA, emulation, and virtual platforms.
- Cross-functional execution : work day-to-day with architects, hardware, and safety teams to land features and de-risk schedules.
- Customer & ecosystem engagement : support early adopters and contribute fixes upstream when appropriate.
- B.E./B.Tech or M.E./M.Tech in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
- Strong experience (typically 5+ years) in Embedded Linux platform/BSP development.
- Expert-level C programming; comfortable reading low-level firmware and kernel code.
- Strong Linux internals knowledge : boot flow, memory management/MMU, interrupts, SMP.
- Hands-on SoC/platform bring-up experience and ownership mindset for BSP quality.
- Hands-on with U-Boot, Linux kernel, Device Tree, and Yocto/OpenEmbedded.
- Strong debugging skills with GDB and at least one of OpenOCD/JTAG, Lauterbach, or similar tools.
- Experience working on FPGA, emulation, or early-silicon platforms.
- RISC-V (RV64) experience or strong exposure to other application-class CPU architectures.
- Background in pre-silicon/FPGA validation or post-silicon debug and triage.
- Experience with multimedia subsystems (camera, display, audio) and their Linux stacks.
- Familiarity with platform security (secure boot, trusted firmware, firmware/OS boundaries).
- Experience with QEMU, virtual platforms, or emulation workflows.
- Exposure to CI/CD and automated validation (test frameworks, dashboards, regressions).
- Build a RISC-V MPU platform from the ground up and see it shipped in real products.
- End-to-end ownership across pre-silicon - FPGA - first silicon - production SDK releases.
- Work closely with CPU architects and SoC teams; your data drives decisions.
- Deep technical work, strong peer group, and long-term growth on a strategic platform.
