Requirements
5+ years of embedded Linux development on custom hardware, with deep expertise in device tree configuration, BSP customization, and kernel bring-up.
Camera and sensor integration on Linux: MIPI CSI and V4L2, plus GMSL or FPD-Link SerDes; comfortable owning the sensor-to-memory path.
Experience with Yocto or L4T-based build systems; fluency in C, C++, Bash, and Python.
Strong hardware debugging with logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, CAN, and UART; reads schematics and collaborates fluently with EEs.
Track record taking Linux-based compute platforms from bring-up to real-world deployment, with real-time and performance optimization.
Wants to work up the stack into autonomy and on-target inference, not only maintain the OS and boards.
Responsibilities
Mach Industries is building an AI-forward autonomy stack for contested environments where GPS and other sensing are unavailable or unreliable.
you own the Linux mission computer that manages cameras, sensors, and the autonomy stack in flight.
You bring up Jetson-class compute, integrate high-bandwidth cameras and sensors into Linux, and make perception, planning, decision making, and on-edge inference run in real time under real SWaP, thermal, and vibration constraints.
This is a role for an exceptional embedded Linux engineer who wants to work up into the autonomy stack, not just maintain boards: kernel and camera/SerDes bring-up, the sensor-to-GPU pipeline, on-target CUDA/TensorRT runtime, and the autonomy software that sits on top.
Own bring-up and lifecycle of the Linux mission computer: board support packages, device trees, kernel configuration, and bootloaders on NVIDIA Jetson/Tegra and similar SoCs.
Integrate high-bandwidth sensors into Linux end to end: MIPI CSI cameras with GMSL/FPD-Link SerDes, V4L2, and ISP tuning, plus radar over PCIe or Ethernet; own time-sync and calibration across the sensor suite.
