Impulse Space is seeking a Linux Platform Software Engineer to develop and maintain the foundational software stack that powers our avionics platforms. This role requires deep expertise in embedded Linux, low-level hardware/software integration, and platform engineering practices to ensure secure, reliable, and maintainable systems. 

Responsibilities

  • Linux Distribution Development: 
    • Build, configure, and maintain a Yocto-based Linux distribution for custom avionics hardware. 
    • Manage kernel configuration, system services, and integration of middleware components. 
  • Board Bring-Up & Hardware Integration: 
    • Perform initial board bring-up of avionics computers. 
    • Debug hardware/software integration issues across CPU, memory, and peripheral subsystems. 
  • Driver Development & Debugging: 
    • Develop, port, and maintain Linux device drivers for sensors, communication buses, and memory devices. 
    • Debug kernel-space and user-space interactions using hardware debuggers and tracing tools. 
  • Platform Engineering & System Hardening: 
    • Implement secure boot and code signing for flight-critical binaries. 
    • Configure and manage router certificates and other cryptographic assets. 
    • Apply Linux security frameworks such as AppArmor and SELinux for mandatory access control. 
    • Design and maintain OTA update infrastructure with rollback/A-B partitioning support. 
    • Manage system configuration, startup scripts, and fault-tolerant resource allocation. 

Minimum Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related degrees. 
  • Experience building and maintaining Yocto-based embedded Linux distributions for custom boards. 
  • Demonstrated ability to develop, configure, and debug Linux kernel drivers. 
  • Demonstrated experience developing in C/C++, with ability to work in constrained, low-level environments. 

Preferred Skills and Experience

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills for technical documentation, design reviews, and cross-discipline collaboration. 
  • Experience with UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, and similar buses. 
  • Strong understanding of embedded software principles, real-time constraints, and resource-limited systems. 
  • Experience with OTA update design and deployment (e.g., dual-partition or rollback-safe systems). 
  • Familiarity with system hardening and security frameworks (SELinux, AppArmor, secure boot, TPM/cryptographic key management). 
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines for embedded systems (e.g., GitLab, Jenkins, CircleCI). 
  • Familiarity with containerization and reproducible build techniques for embedded platforms. 
  • Hands-on experience with oscilloscopes, hardware debuggers, and signal analyzers.
