Job Description: 

The Role Mandate

As Research Engineer – CI/CD, Yocto for Advanced System Integration, you will implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines, build automation and integration workflows for embedded Linux platforms. You will develop Python and Shell automation, improve build performance and pipeline stability, manage Git-based workflows, and debug compilation, linker, build and integration issues in collaboration with architects and engineers.

Why This Role – What You Gain

Hands-on build automation
Develop practical CI/CD solutions, scripts and reusable build utilities.

Measurable engineering impact
Improve build efficiency, reliability, pipeline stability and integration quality.

Embedded-platform depth
Work across Linux internals, build tools, integration workflows and real devices.

Architecture collaboration
Implement solutions with architects, platform teams and embedded engineers.

 

The Larger Impact

•  Improve CI/CD reliability and engineering productivity for embedded Linux build environments.

•  Automate build and integration workflows using Python, Shell scripting, Jenkins and Git.

•  Enable faster diagnosis and resolution of build, compilation, linker and integration failures.

•  Support the broader program goals for build-time reduction, platform integration and Yocto-based modernization.

Key Responsibilities

CI/CD and Build Automation

•  Implement, maintain and enhance CI/CD pipelines for embedded Linux build systems.

•  Develop Python and Shell scripts for build modules, automation utilities, log processing and integration workflows.

•  Manage Git-based development, branching and CI/CD integration workflows.

•  Improve pipeline stability, build reliability, failure recovery and automation maintainability.

•  Work with Jenkins and embedded build environments to support repeatable integration and validation activities.

•  Collaborate with architects and engineers to translate build and integration needs into working automation.

Build Engineering and Integration

•  Improve build performance and contribute to build-time reduction initiatives.

•  Debug embedded Linux build and integration issues across compilation, linking, packaging and configuration stages.

•  Use C/C++ knowledge and GDB to trace and patch compilation, linker and system-integration failures.

•  Work with build tools such as CMake and Bazel in large-scale embedded build environments.

•  Support Yocto/OpenEmbedded activities involving BitBake, layers and recipes where required.

•  Troubleshoot embedded Linux graphics and media stack issues (e.g., rendering, playback, HW acceleration).

•  Support integration workflows and platform stability while working with BSP, platform and product teams.

How the Role Works

The Research Engineer works with Research Architects, platform engineers and embedded-system specialists to implement automation, resolve failures and improve build and integration workflows. The role is execution-focused and requires practical scripting, debugging and continuous-improvement capability.

Mandatory Skills and Experience͏

  • 4-8 years of experience in Embedded Linux, build systems, CI/CD or platform integration.
  • Experience in embedded build automation, integration workflows, build tools and embedded build environments.
  • Understanding of Linux internals on embedded platforms.
  • Strong practical experience in build automation using Python, Shell scripting and Git.
  • Experience with Jenkins or comparable CI/CD pipelines and Git-based workflows.
  • C/C++ debugging background covering compilation, linker and integration failures.
  • Hands-on exposure to CMake, Bazel and debugging tools such as GDB.
  • Ability to troubleshoot embedded Linux graphics and media-stack issues, including rendering, playback and hardware acceleration.

Preferred / Good to Have͏

•  Experience with Yocto/OpenEmbedded, including BitBake, layers and recipes.

•  Experience on embedded platforms such as TV, set-top box, automotive or similar products.

•  Exposure to BSP bring-up and low-level embedded Linux debugging.

•  Experience with large-scale build-system or platform migration activities.

•  Exposure to graphics or media-stack integration and troubleshooting on embedded Linux.

Educational Qualification͏

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electronics, Embedded Systems, or a related engineering discipline, or equivalent relevant experience.

What Success Looks Like͏

•  CI/CD pipelines are stable, maintainable and support reliable embedded Linux build execution.

•  Python and Shell automation reduces repetitive effort and improves build and integration workflows.

•  Build failures, compilation errors, linker issues and integration problems are diagnosed and resolved effectively.

•  Git-based workflows and automation support consistent integration across engineering teams.

•  Build-time and pipeline-performance improvements are demonstrated through implemented changes.

•  Yocto, build-tool and embedded-platform knowledge grows through hands-on delivery and collaboration.
