GPU ENGINEER
We are looking for a GPU Engineer with expertise in Linux media frameworks, GPU optimization, and embedded development. You will enhance graphics and media pipelines for edge devices like drones, laptops, and robotics platforms using NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel technologies. This role focuses on balancing real-time streaming performance with thermal and power efficiency and offers opportunities for open-source collaboration.
Key Responsibilities
- Graphics/Media Pipeline Optimization: Design and optimize systems for real-time streaming and media processing on edge devices.
- GPU Performance Tuning: Improve performance for real-time and low-latency streaming using NVIDIA and other accelerators.
- Linux Driver & Kernel Development: Develop and maintain Linux drivers for NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel graphics hardware.
- Cross-Platform Acceleration: Optimize hardware acceleration for video encoding/decoding using CUDA, OpenGL, Vulkan, TensorRT, and GStreamer.
- Virtualization & Security: Use Linux virtualization technologies to securely isolate workloads and ensure robust performance.
- Troubleshooting & Performance Analysis: Diagnose and debug performance bottlenecks in media processing pipelines.
- Open Source Contributions: Contribute to Linux graphics and media subsystems projects.
- Documentation & Mentorship: Create technical documentation and mentor junior engineers.
-
Applied R&D: Collaborate with researchers to develop functional prototypes from advanced concepts.
- 5+ years of experience in a position in graphics/media software development on Linux systems.
- Strong understanding of NVIDIA GPUs and familiarity with AMD and Intel platforms.
- Extensive experience with Linux kernel graphics and media subsystems, including custom driver development.
- Experience with GStreamer, V4L2, VAAPI, or similar pipelines.
- Proficiency with OpenGL, Vulkan, and real-time streaming protocols.
- Expertise in developing and debugging Linux device drivers for graphics hardware.
- Mastery of C/C++ with performance profiling and debugging tools.
-
Proven track record of contributions to Linux kernel, GPU drivers, or media frameworks that can be verified.
Senior Embedded Software Engineer
@ Embedd 
What we're looking for
At embedd.it, we power hardware-software integration in embedded devices. We turn fragmented semiconductor chip data into configurable digital twins, then deterministically generate code, tests, and documentation – making integration faster, cheaper, and resilient to supply chain shocks.
We’re looking for a true legend – someone with abstract thinking and deep expertise in low-level software development. You’ll build vendor-agnostic tooling for MCU and peripheral integration to solve hardware-software integration once and for all. We work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generation, compilers, and machine learning. It’s your chance to help redefine how low-level development is done.
Responsibilities
- Drive the architecture of the driver structures and system layout
- Define scalable patterns for cross-architectural integration across bare-metal, Zephyr, Linux, and other environments
- Deconstruct complex SoC device trees and translate hardware descriptions into structured internal models for automated reasoning
- Partner with the ML team to shape data and annotation models for AI-driven data-extraction tooling
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in embedded systems development, including bare-metal and RTOS-based systems
- Proficiency in C/C++
- Familiarity with firmware configuration, SoC bring-up, and system-level debugging
- Hands-on experience with code generation tools, or low-level compiler/decompiler/emulator technologies
- Strong background in embedded toolchains: compilers, linkers, debuggers, and build systems
- Python or scripting for automation and tooling is a plus
- Experience with functional-safety standards is a plus
Why embedd.it?
- Dynamic, venture-backed team of engineers challenging the status quo 🚀
- Work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generators, compilers, and ML 🤖
- Unusual challenges requiring out-of-the-box abstract thinking 🧠
- Competitive compensation: cash + equity 💰
- Remote work possible 🌍
About Us
embedd.it is a UK-based startup reinventing embedded development. Our platform transforms unstructured semiconductor data into structured digital twins, enabling automatic generation of drivers, tests, and documentation. We're building a single, traceable source of truth to make integration fast, vendor-agnostic, and future-proof.
