About the project

We are looking for Embedded Linux Engineers to support the New Product Introduction (NPI) phase of a new device. This is a hands-on, engineering-focused role that requires strong experience with Linux-based operating systems, Yocto build system, and C++ development in user space.
You will work as part of a complementary, cross-functional engineering group. While full‑stack skills are welcome, they are not required—we are building a team where different engineers bring their own strengths. Engineers experienced with LVGL or Qt for UI development are also strongly appreciated (the final UI framework is not yet decided).
