Senior Embedded Linux / Device OS Engineer
We’re a start-up company based in London and building building a privacy-first, offline-first edge AI platform that runs on real devices (camera boards, HDMI sticks, edge nodes).
We need a Senior Embedded Linux / Device OS Engineer to own the device OS end-to-end (bootloader → kernel → userspace), including Yocto/Buildroot, secure boot & device identity at OS level, OTA with rollback/recovery, and driver integration (V4L2/USB/HDMI/GPIO/I2C/SPI). This is not a research role. This is about shipping reliable hardware into the real world. Please see more details of the role as follows:
Location: Remote / Hybrid (UK / EU preferred)
Type: Full-time
Responsibilities
· Linux bring-up on custom hardware (bootloader → kernel → userspace)
· Yocto or Buildroot build systems
· Device provisioning, secure boot, identity at OS level
· OTA updates with rollback and recovery
· Driver integration (V4L2, USB, HDMI, GPIO, I2C, SPI)
· Power, thermal, watchdog, storage integrity
· Debugging at the metal (serial, JTAG, logic analyser)
Required Experience
· 5+ years embedded Linux
· Shipped production devices
· Comfortable with poor documentation and hardware quirks
· Strong C / shell / low-level Linux skills
We are committed to remote/hybrid(UK/EU preferred), and we offer a competitive salary and a senior role that allows you to get the full picture of the project as well. That said, would you be open to a short intro call to see if there’s a good fit? If yes, please feel free to contact ayeeye.career@gmail.com

Look forward to hearing from you.
