• Professional experience building embedded software in commercial products
• Hands-on experience with media playback, including audio/video pipelines and real-world debugging
• Strong C and C++ skills
• Solid Linux experience, including comfort with low-level investigation and command-line tooling
• Understanding of media formats, codecs, streaming protocols, and related playback technologies
• Experience with or exposure to technologies such as ffmpeg, gstreamer, 1mpv, mplayer, ALSA, or similar is especially relevant. Experience with git is expected; Gerrit is a plus.
• Our OS group is primarily based in Cambridge, with a small number of remote engineers across the UK and US Eastern time zone. We’d ideally like this role to be based full time in the Cambridge office, but we can be flexible for the right candidate.
• If you want to work on embedded systems where video performance, platform reliability, and hardware-software integration genuinely matter, this is a role with real technical depth and product impact.
