System Software Engineer, Consumer Products

In this role, you will:

• Design, implement, and debug system‑level components and services across kernel and user space.
• Configure and maintain OS platform services (init, services, networking, security policies) and related tooling.
• Build and operate image and update pipelines, ensuring reliability, reproducibility, and rollback safety.
• Instrument and analyze performance using profiling and tracing; optimize CPU, memory, I/O, and power usage.
• Own platform observability and reliability: logging, crash capture, watchdogs, and diagnostics.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to define interfaces and deliver end‑to‑end features.
• Establish strong engineering practices: code review, CI, reproducible builds, and release management.
• Partner with external suppliers to support builds and deployments.

You might thrive in this role if you:

• Have shipped production systems software on modern operating systems.
• Are proficient in C/C++ and a scripting language, and comfortable with OS internals (concurrency, memory management, filesystems, networking, power management).
• Bring strong systems debugging skills using debuggers, tracers, profilers, and logs across kernel/user‑space boundaries.
• Understand configuration of platform services and interfaces, and can translate requirements into stable, well‑documented APIs.
• Are fluent in user‑space foundations (service management, IPC, networking, packaging, automation).
• Have experience building platform images and designing update mechanisms for reliability and security.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Exposure to platform security (secure boot, sandboxing, mandatory access controls, attestation).
• Experience with graphics/media, hardware acceleration, or high‑throughput data paths.
• Familiarity with connectivity stacks and network configuration.
• Observability and diagnostics in distributed or resource‑constrained environments.
• Work on open‑source platforms or contributions to systems projects.
