Senior Embedded Linux Engineer

Nordic Investin is recruiting a Senior Embedded Linux Engineer on behalf of one of our partner companies. You enjoy the point where kernel behaviour, board constraints and product requirements meet. The partner is creating a Linux based device platform for connected products. You will own essential parts of the operating system layer, support new hardware and give application teams a stable, secure foundation. The environment will suit someone who enjoys building systems, testing assumptions in code and taking responsibility for production behaviour. Technical choices are expected to be explained in terms of maintainability, reliability and the people who use the product. How you will work You will work in short delivery cycles with direct access to product, domain and operational colleagues. The partner expects engineers to review designs, test assumptions early and follow important changes into production. Decisions should be recorded clearly enough that another engineer can understand the tradeoff months later. As a senior colleague, you will own substantial outcomes and help others make stronger decisions. You are expected to recognise risk early, communicate it without drama and move work forward with practical alternatives. The role still includes hands on delivery; seniority here means broader judgement, not distance from the work. What you will do Perform board bring up and hardware focused fault isolation. Configure and maintain Linux kernels, bootloaders and device trees. Develop or adapt device drivers and low level services. Build reproducible images with Yocto or Buildroot. Strengthen update, networking and security mechanisms. Improve diagnostics, performance and long term maintainability. What you will bring Strong C or C plus plus programming ability. Hands on embedded Linux and board bring up experience. Knowledge of kernel interfaces, drivers and hardware debugging. Production experience with Yocto or Buildroot. Understanding of
