Arbeitsbeschreibung - Embedded Linux Platform Engineer (UAV)

The day-to-day

  • Own the Linux platform: design, build, and maintain our embedded Linux distribution (Yocto Project) across our UAV compute boards — you are the owner of the whole Linux stack.
  • Bring up hardware: bootloader (U-Boot), kernel configuration, device tree, and driver integration for new boards, sensors, and peripherals.
  • Own the update strategy: design and maintain robust, fail-safe update mechanisms (A/B, atomic rollback) for OS, kernel, and firmware on deployed drones — ideally OTA.
  • Integrate the flight stack: work alongside the PX4 flight controller and companion compute, wiring the Linux side into the wider system.
  • Collaborate cross-team: work with hardware, avionics, and systems teams to ensure robust end-to-end UAV operation.
  • Test in the field: support lab testing and live flight trials, including debugging and performance tuning on-site.

You should apply if you

  • Experience: you bring 4+ years in embedded Linux development, ideally on UAV/robotics or other mission-critical platforms.
  • Embedded Linux: you go deep — Yocto, bootloaders (U-Boot), the Linux kernel, device tree, and board bring-up are your home turf.
  • Update strategy: you have designed robust update/OTA mechanisms (A/B, fail-safe rollback) for fielded devices.
  • Languages: you are proficient in C and C++, and use Python for tooling.
  • Microcontroller awareness: you understand what it means to write firmware on a microcontroller — bare-metal/RTOS, constrained resources, real-time constraints — even if it is not your daily focus.
  • Systems: you understand real-time systems, communication protocols, and low-level Linux internals.
  • Mindset: you thrive in a fast-paced, early-stage environment and are eligible for EU security clearance. 
  • Education: you hold a completed degree or equivalent training in a relevant field, e.g.:
    • Computer science / software engineering
    • Electrical / aerospace engineering
    • Embedded systems / real-time computing
    • Robotics / mechatronics

  • Language skills: English is required; German is a plus.

Nice to haves

  • PX4: familiarity with PX4 (or ArduPilot) flight control software.
  • Containers & CI: Docker and CI/CD pipelines for reproducible builds.
  • Fleet scale: experience operating OTA updates across a fleet of devices.
  • Domain: exposure to defence, aerospace, or other mission-critical sectors.
  • Electronics: background in electronics development, including schematic design and Altium Designer.
