You will play a key role in supporting the development and integration of the RAVE2 platform, ensuring that technical information is clearly documented and communicated to both internal and external stakeholders. As the team and platform evolve, you will have the opportunity to expand into areas such as embedded AI inference, computer vision pipelines, robotics software, graphics technologies, and simulation environments used to develop intelligent systems.

You will work closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams across hardware, FPGA, AI, and software engineering in a collaborative and innovation-driven environment, helping to bring cutting-edge Physical AI solutions into real-world applications.

THE PERSON:

You are an engineer who enjoys working close to the hardware while building scalable and high-performance software systems. You thrive in complex, multidisciplinary environments and are motivated by solving real-world challenges through innovation.

You are detail-oriented and take pride in producing high-quality technical documentation. You communicate effectively across teams and can simplify complex system interactions for diverse audiences. You are curious, adaptable, and eager to expand your expertise across embedded systems, AI, and robotics technologies.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Contribute to the development, integration, and support of embedded Linux platforms.
• Support the bring-up, debugging, validation, and optimisation of embedded systems.
• Develop and maintain high-quality technical documentation for the RAVE2 platform.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams across hardware, FPGA, AI, and software domains.
• Investigate and resolve software, hardware, and system-level challenges.
• Contribute to system design, performance analysis, and validation activities.
• Help define and improve engineering best practices and development processes.
• Establish strong familiarity with the RAVE2 platform and documentation standards.
• Contribute to platform bring-up, integration, and system validation efforts.
• Begin supporting broader development areas such as AI inference, vision, or robotics pipelines.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• Experience in software development using C/C++ and/or Python.
• Strong familiarity with Linux operating systems and development environments.
• Understanding of embedded systems architecture and hardware/software interactions.
• Experience debugging complex system-level issues.
• Exposure to multidisciplinary engineering environments.

Nice to have:

• Experience with FPGA-based systems or hardware acceleration.
• Knowledge of SoCs and ASIC-based platforms.
• Familiarity with RTOS or automotive software architectures such as AUTOSAR.
• Experience with graphics stacks (e.g., OpenGL, Vulkan, Wayland).
• Exposure to ROS 2, robotics middleware, or sensor integration.
• Experience with simulation environments (e.g., Gazebo, Isaac Sim, CARLA).
• Understanding of AI inference deployment and computer vision pipelines.
• Industry exposure to automotive, robotics, or autonomous systems.

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field preferred.
