About the role

  • Design, implement, and maintain C++ applications running on a custom Yocto-based Linux platform
  • Integrate and configure Pulseaudio, spdlog, RapidJSON, and related libraries into existing or new services
  • Implement and debug inter-process communication using Linux sockets
  • Manage application configuration and persistence using the Linux filesystem and JSON-based configs
  • Create, configure, and troubleshoot systemd services for application components (start-up, shutdown, restart policies, logging)
  • Work with in-house engineers to diagnose and resolve issues on target hardware (e.g., performance, stability, resource usage)
  • Contribute to build and deployment workflows for Yocto images and application updates

Requirements

  • Strong modern C++ (C++11 or later) application development on Linux targets
  • Hands-on experience with custom Linux distributions built using **Yocto **or OpenEmbedded (building images, debugging target issues, integrating packages)​
  • Comfortable developing Linux user-space applications that use:
  • **Pulseaudio **for audio routing and playback/capture on Linux systems​
  • **spdlog **for structured, high-performance logging in C++​
  • **RapidJSON **(or similar) for efficient JSON parsing/serialization in C++
  • POSIX/Linux sockets (TCP/UDP, basic networking, and IPC)
  • Linux filesystem APIs (file I/O, directory operations, permissions)
  • Linux service management (systemd units, logging, enabling/disabling services, service supervision)
