Embedded Linux Engineer – Drone Systems

About the role

We are looking for an Embedded Linux Engineer to develop and debug software for advanced unmanned aerial systems. The role involves close interaction with hardware to ensure reliable operation of drones used in defense, security and critical infrastructure.

Key responsibilities

• Develop and maintain embedded Linux software for onboard drone systems.
• Interface with hardware components (sensors, cameras, radios) using SPI, I2C, UART, CAN.
• Debug complex issues across software and hardware boundaries.
• Collaborate with hardware engineers to bring up new boards and features.
• Optimize performance, reliability and real-time behavior of the system.
• Contribute to system architecture and integration across the drone platform.

Required profile

• Strong experience with embedded Linux development (not desktop/server).
• Solid understanding of low-level programming, preferably C/C++.
• Hands-on experience with hardware interfaces such as SPI, I2C, UART, CAN.
• Ability to read schematics, datasheets and understand PCB-level interactions.
• Experience debugging real devices (e.g., robotics, drones, IoT, automotive).
• Systems mindset – able to think beyond code and understand full-stack interactions.

Required skills

• Embedded Linux
• C/C++ programming
• SPI, I2C, UART, CAN protocols
• Hardware debugging
• Schematics and PCB interpretation

What we offer

• Competitive salary.
• Work on cutting-edge drone technology used in real-world missions.
• High ownership and impact – your work directly affects deployed systems.
• Fast-moving, engineering-driven environment.
