  • Review code produced by other engineers.
Requirements

  • Development experience with early boot software like TF-A, OP-TEE, U-Boot, shim, GRUB, or the Linux kernel.
  • Experience on non-x86 platforms such as ARM, RISC-V.
  • A love of technology and working with brilliant people.
  • Motivated, curious, flexible, articulate, and accountable.
  • A long-time Linux user with broad interests in the future of Linux.
  • Experience or interest in learning how to package software for Debian and Ubuntu.
  • You have a Bachelor's or equivalent in Computer Science, STEM or similar degree.
What We Offer
  • Personal learning and development budget.

We are proud to foster a workplace free from discrimination. Diversity of experience, perspectives, and background create a better work environment and better products. Whatever your identity, we will give your application fair consideration.
