Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 2+ years of Software Engineering or related work experience. OR Master's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 1+ year of Software Engineering or related work experience. OR PhD in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field. 2+ years of academic or work experience with Programming Language such as C, C++, Java, Python, etc. Master's Degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field. Strong background in computer science fundamentals and software engineering principles. Proficiency in Bash and Python for automation and tooling, working knowledge of C/C++ Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Mature interpersonal skills with ability to collaborate across diverse teams. Proven ability to debug complex Linux systems across kernel and userspace. Ability to quickly learn new tools and workflows in a fast-evolving environment. Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in non-linear, dynamic environments. Proficiency with Git and experience in GitHub-based workflows (or similar), including integration with modern CI/CD systems for open-source or large-scale projects. Deep experience with enterprise Linux distributions (e.g., RHEL/Fedora, Ubuntu/Debian) and build frameworks, including packaging, update mechanisms, and upstream integration, and data center deployment practices. Familiarity with Linux packaging systems (Debian, RPM) and CI/CD automation tools (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins). Working knowledge of Linux kernel configuration and platform enablement (e.g., ACPI, UEFI, kconfig). Experience contributing to upstream Linux kernel or userspace projects is a strong plus. Familiarity with virtualization, containerization, and orchestration tools (QEMU, KVM, Docker, Kubernetes) is desirable. Collaborate with team members to bring up Linux kernel and userspace on new server-class hardware, ensuring core functionality and stability. Implement and maintain build, packaging, and test workflows within the team's CI/CD infrastructure. Assist in developing internal Linux distribution integration Debug and triage issues related to build failures, packaging, and platform bring-up. Work with hardware and firmware engineers to resolve platform-specific issues (e.g., bootloader, ACPI, secure boot). Support upstream readiness efforts by testing and validating changes needed for major Linux distributions (e.g., RHEL, Ubuntu). Contribute patches and collaborate with upstream communities under guidance from senior team members. Document processes and share knowledge to enable other internal developers. Works under supervision with moderate autonomy. Decision-making may affect work beyond immediate work group. Requires strong communication skills and ability to influence and negotiate across teams. Tasks require planning, prioritization, and creative problem-solving.
