  • Create reusable workflow components, tools, or skills that connect AI assistants to approved engineering context and systems, such as source repositories, technical documentation, issue trackers, build environments, and test infrastructure.
  • Define clear validation and review steps for AI-assisted work. Evaluate generated changes and results for correctness, security, reliability, and maintainability before they are integrated.
  • Work across firmware and system software interfaces, including early boot, EL3 runtime services, power management, operating system and hypervisors.
  • Involving in sophisticated and next generation CPU architecture that drives our Tegra platform.
  • Work with upstream community to develop software for latest ARM technologies such as Confidential Compute and help drive improvements to various specs such as PSCI, FFA, RMI.

  • Deep understanding of operating system fundamentals and computer architecture concepts such as MMU, Cache Coherency, TLB, Timers, ISRs is a must.
  • Knowledge in Safety and Security standards such as ISO26262, CERT-C and MISRA-C would be a plus.
  • Demonstrated use of AI-assisted development tools for software engineering tasks such as firmware debugging, regression triage, log analysis, test generation and technical research.
  • Experience building AI agents or engineering assistants using retrieval-augmented generation, tool use or function calling, agent skills, or multi-step orchestration is a plus.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
