Design and implement secure communications capabilities, including encryption, authentication, and key exchange for next-generation data links

Build and maintain low-level software components including device drivers, kernel modules, hardware interfaces, and platform services

Develop automated tests, validation tools, and technical documentation to support robust software delivery and long-term maintainability

Participate in software architecture discussions, design reviews, and code reviews to ensure software quality and system reliability

Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to define system requirements, debug complex issues, and evolve system architecture

Identify performance gaps, reliability risks, and architectural shortcomings in existing systems, and drive improvements across the software stack

Provide technical leadership, mentorship, and guidance to junior engineers while contributing to engineering best practices and development standards

Required Skills & Qualifications:

Experience developing software for embedded Linux and/or RTOS environments, including familiarity with build systems such as Yocto/OpenEmbedded and operating systems such as FreeRTOS

Experience developing low-level embedded Linux components including kernel modules, device drivers, and device tree integrations

Experience developing and maintaining automated test frameworks, validation tooling, or hardware/software integration test environments

Strong cross-functional collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across software, hardware, and operations teams

Proficiency with modern software development workflows and tools, including Git-based version control and code review practices

"Demonstrates a willingness to adopt and effectively utilize AI-assisted engineering tools, applying sound judgment to improve productivity, quality, and innovation while continuously adapting to evolving technologies"

Bonus Points:

Familiarity with Linux networking concepts and infrastructure, including routing, interfaces, netlink, or packet-processing pipelines

Experience developing multi-stage bootloaders

Strong knowledge of computer networking and modern networking protocols

Experience with RTL (Verilog and/or VHDL) and embedded SoCs

Salary Range: $159,288 - $209,288 CAD

Actual total compensation will be determined at the Company’s discretion and is based on a variety of job-related factors, which may include, but are not limited to, relevant knowledge, skills, experience, performance, and education and/or training.
