Linux Diagnostics Engineer

Linux Diagnostics Software Engineer

Job Title: Linux Diagnostics Software Engineer

Job Description:

Candidate will work in a team of Linux software engineers to design and implement diagnostic software intended to test and validate hardware systems and components for STBU security appliances. The code must support several operational environments, from prototype bench testing to high volume manufacturing. The diagnostic software is intended to fully exercise state of the art circuit boards and their components (e.g. processor support chips, memory systems, I/O components and their mutual interconnections). As well as developing code in ‘C’, a primary job function is integrating test and exercise code supplied by vendors of the hardware components utilized on the particular sub-system for which the diagnostic code is being developed. Scripting is utilized extensively. This is a senior/lead role and candidate is expected to mentor and coach junior engineers in addition to hand-on development.

Skills/experience required:

- (minimum) BS in EE, CS, or CE (or similar)
- strong Linux skills, including kernel modification experience and experience with low level Linux device drivers
- Strong 'C' programming skills
- minimum five years experience (ten or more preferred) with embedded systems
- Ability to understand hardware datasheets and schematics (with ability to write code to exercise the respective hardware)
- Ability to write clear and concise diagnostic software specifications derived from hardware data sheets and schematics
- Ability to implement diagnostic software derived from diagnostic specifications written by others.
- Ability to work with a geographically dispersed cross-functional team made up of hardware engineers, manufacturing test technicians, other software engineers, and managers.
- strong verbal (e.g. conference calls) and written communication skills.
- Ability to write code in an integrated team environment with documented procedures for specification reviews, code reviews, version control, bug tracking, and formal make and build procedures.

Skills/experience desired:

- experience writing board-level (OS-less) diagnostic software for highly structured, high volume, manufacturing environments
- Assembly language programming skills
- Ethernet driver development experience
- experience with, and/or knowledge of, networking equipment and systems
- Ability to lead and mentor junior engineers
