as the technical leader for the embedded software build system within software product development (swpd), you will work in a fast moving environment to evolve and improve this system. The build system is used by hundreds of engineers on a daily basis and its ease of use, health, and performance have a huge impact on productivity and the ability to meet our product vision and goals. We view the build system as not just a set of tools but as much a part of the products as any feature or function. It's an area in which innovation and planning for the future matter as much as for any product feature roadmap. In the process, you will find yourself working with some of the brightest minds in the business across multiple disciplines of software, hardware, and release engineering.
how the code is built is inherently part of the codebase, these are interdependent. Therefore, the role requires understanding and modifying the codebase like a senior engineer working on product features. It's necessary to have a background in embedded linux development and the skills to implement product features.
responsibilities:
1. principal owner of the yocto and meson-based build system for linux-based products
2. design, build, analyze, enhance, and refactor elements of the build system used to power products
3. improve development workflows to continually decrease build times and increase build reliability and reproducibility, including consistency in build processes across platforms
4. work with teams across swpd to help them understand and use the build system
5. consult to the mobile controller application teams on their build system (platform-native build systems, cmake-based build system, etc)
6. track industry trends in build tools and processes and create a vision and strategy for evolving the build system
7. own the regular third-party library upgrade cycle tied to yocto lts releases
8. patch third-party libraries as needed as part of yocto maintenance releases
9. collaborate with internal infrastructure/devops teams around build infrastructure needs and implementation
10. develop and mentor junior engineers
required qualifications:
1. passion for build tools and build performance
2. strong experience with yocto
3. strong experience programming in python
4. 3+ years of industry experience with git, and branching strategies and best practices
5. experience with embedded linux development: 7+ years of industry experience writing c/c++ code and/or developing c/c++ build systems in a linux environment
6. detail-oriented
7. self-motivated
preferred qualifications:
1. experience with meson or cmake
2. experience with rust and cargo
3. experience with jenkins
