About The JobWe're building a next-generation, application-class RISC-V MPU SoC platform for Linux systems - bringing together multimedia, industrial connectivity, security, and heterogeneous compute subsystems. In the Platform Software team, you'll own key pieces of Linux bring-up and SDK validation, partner closely with architecture and hardware teams, and help shape SoC/CPU decisions with hands-on data from pre-silicon, FPGA, and first-silicon debug. Key ResponsibilitiesLinux SDK development & validation : build, enable, and release a production-quality SDK for a 64-bit RISC-V MPU.Enable the boot and firmware stack (boot flow, early platform initialization, U-Boot, OpenSBI).Drive Linux kernel/BSP enablement : SoC bring-up, Device Tree, CPU/memory/interrupt subsystems.Develop and debug device drivers (multimedia, connectivity, DMA, power/clock/reset, platform services).Deliver SDK releases : integration, validation, and developer-facing documentation.Pre- & post-silicon validation (AVV) : create tests, validate FPGA/first silicon, and unblock teams through system-level debug.Contribute to pre-silicon validation using FPGA, emulation, and virtual platforms.Cross-functional execution : work day-to-day with architects, hardware, and safety teams to land features and de-risk schedules.Customer & ecosystem engagement : support early adopters and contribute fixes upstream when appropriate.Required QualificationsB.E./B.Tech or M.E./M.Tech in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.Strong experience (typically 5+ years) in Embedded Linux platform/BSP development.Expert-level C programming; comfortable reading low-level firmware and kernel code.Strong Linux internals knowledge : boot flow, memory management/MMU, interrupts, SMP.Hands-on SoC/platform bring-up experience and ownership mindset for BSP quality.Hands-on with U-Boot, Linux kernel, Device Tree, and Yocto/OpenEmbedded.Strong debugging skills with GDB and at least one of OpenOCD/JTAG, Lauterbach, or similar tools.Experience working on FPGA, emulation, or early-silicon platforms.Desired SkillsRISC-V (RV64) experience or strong exposure to other application-class CPU architectures.Background in pre-silicon/FPGA validation or post-silicon debug and triage.Experience with multimedia subsystems (camera, display, audio) and their Linux stacks.Familiarity with platform security (secure boot, trusted firmware, firmware/OS boundaries).Experience with QEMU, virtual platforms, or emulation workflows.Exposure to CI/CD and automated validation (test frameworks, dashboards, regressions).What We OfferBuild a RISC-V MPU platform from the ground up and see it shipped in real products.End-to-end ownership across pre-silicon - FPGA - first silicon - production SDK releases.Work closely with CPU architects and SoC teams; your data drives decisions.Deep technical work, strong peer group, and long-term growth on a strategic platform.(ref:hirist.tech) .
Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
