Bring new sensors to life-integrating cutting-edge cameras, LiDAR, radar, and GPS/IMU into a high-performance sensor framework powering next-gen systems
Act as a hands-on Technical/Team Lead, driving architecture and technical direction while remaining deeply involved in development, mentoring engineers, and guiding the delivery of high-performance embedded solutions.
Enable advanced silicon and connectivity by supporting modern Image Signal Processors (ISPs) and high-speed SerDes technologies across diverse platforms
Build and optimize deeply embedded systems in C/C++, delivering low-latency, high-throughput performance at scale
Take software to new hardware-porting and tuning the framework across SoCs and platforms, unlocking new capabilities
Shape the developer experience by designing clean, scalable APIs and extending core framework features
Accelerate adoption through robust sample apps and reference implementations that showcase real-world use cases
Solve complex system-level challenges by debugging across the full stack-from drivers to application layers
Collaborate with industry leaders including hardware vendors and cross-functional teams to deliver seamless, production-ready integrations
You will have:
Proven experience building embedded systems software in production environments
Strong grasp of low-level programming (memory management, interrupts, DMA, concurrency)
Hands-on experience with device driver development
Proficiency in C and C++
Experience with static analysis, testing, and code quality practices
A passion for debugging complex systems and solving hard technical problems
Strong communication skills and a collaborative, team-first mindset
If you have any of these then that would be great:
Experience working with QNX, Linux, or Android systems
Experience in a Technical Lead or Team Lead capacity, with a track record of mentoring engineers, influencing technical direction, and driving delivery in hands-on, embedded software environments.
Exposure to computer vision, imaging pipelines, or graphics systems
Familiarity with functional safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262)
Experience with virtualization or hypervisor-based environments
Worker Sub-Type:
Regular
Job Description:
QNX enhances the human experience and amplifies technology-driven industries, providing a trusted foundation for software-defined businesses to thrive. The business leads the way in delivering safe and secure operating systems, hypervisors, middleware, solutions, and development tools, along with support and services delivered by trusted embedded software experts.
