Proven track record designing and delivering complex embedded systems at scale. Strong experience with multi-threaded programming, concurrency models, and synchronization mechanisms. Solid understanding of networking technologies: Ethernet, IP, routing, switching, and LAN/WLAN concepts. Exceptional communication skills with the ability to influence across teams and present complex ideas clearly. Demonstrated ability to lead technical initiatives and drive architectural decision Experience with RF systems, spectrum analyzers, and wireless test equipment. Background in module performance tuning, system profiling, and real-time optimization. Experience contributing to or maintaining Linux kernel components is a strong asset. Familiarity with IEEE Wi-Fi and LAN standards development or participation in standards bodies Technical Leadership & Architecture Lead the architecture, design, and implementation of complex real-time embedded software systems for Wi-Fi products. Define technical direction for embedded Linux components, ensuring long-term maintainability, performance, and scalability. Drive cross-team technical initiatives, aligning embedded software, hardware, and systems engineering. Evaluate new technologies, tools, and methodologies to improve product quality and development efficiency. Execution & Ownership Own critical software modules end-to-end, from requirements and design through implementation, validation, and long-term sustainment. Maintain and enhance existing embedded Wi-Fi products, providing engineering support to customers as needed. Participate in requirements analysis, technical documentation reviews, and specification discussions. Develop and execute component-level, module-level, subsystem, and system-level test procedures. Provide expert-level debugging and root-cause analysis for complex issues across the embedded Linux stack. Lead the development of multi-threaded, high-performance applications under Linux with real-time constraints. Conduct and enforce code reviews sessions, offering constructive feedback and mentoring junior developers. Ensure engineering rigor by defining best practices, coding standards, and design patterns for embedded development. Collaboration & Influence Partner with product management, hardware teams, and customer engineering to translate requirements into robust technical solutions. Act as a senior technical point of escalation for customer issues, guiding teams through complex problem resolution. Lead design and code reviews, providing high-quality feedback and raising the technical bar across the team. Mentorship & Team Development Mentor and coach junior and intermediate engineers, fostering growth in embedded systems, networking, and Linux development.
