Linux Software Engineer

Description

We’re looking for a Linux Device Driver Software Engineer to develop, integrate, and optimize the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) software for our satellites. You will drive the creation of Linux kernel device drivers, OS abstraction components, and related integration procedures. You'll work closely with hardware engineering, integration & test, and GNC teams to establish robust software methodologies and practices that scale effectively as our satellite constellation grows.

This is a hands-on role that will influence many facets of our satellite embedded systems, including Linux kernel development, custom driver creation, hardware / software interface validation, real-time performance optimization, digital tooling, technical documentation, and operational reliability.

What You'll Do

• Develop, integrate, and optimize Linux kernel device drivers and related software components for satellite subsystems, writing production-quality embedded code daily.
• Execute comprehensive hardware / software integration test campaigns, emphasizing detailed driver validation and system stability.
• Collaborate closely with hardware engineering, integration & test, and operations teams to implement robust hardware / software interfaces, manage fault conditions, and develop effective mitigation strategies.
• Continuously improve device driver codebases, HAL components, and integration procedures, contributing to long-term reliability and scalability.
• Translate complex hardware interfaces and operational workflows into clear technical documentation, ensuring maintainability and knowledge transfer.
• Optimize Linux-based software performance, stability, and resilience, enhancing spacecraft operational reliability.
