Software Engineer - RISC-V MPU SoC Platform

Description :

We are building a next-generation application-class RISC-V MPU SoC platform for Linux systems, integrating multimedia, industrial connectivity, security, and heterogeneous compute subsystems. The role involves Linux bring-up, SDK validation, platform debugging, and close collaboration with architecture and hardware teams.

The core responsibilities for the job include the following :

Linux SDK Development and Validation :

- Develop and maintain Linux SDK for 64-bit RISC-V MPU platforms.

- Enable boot and firmware stack, including early platform initialization, U-Boot, and OpenSBI.

- Perform Linux kernel/BSP bring-up and Device Tree enablement.

- Develop and debug drivers for multimedia, connectivity, DMA, power, clock, reset, and platform services.

- Deliver SDK integration, validation, and developer documentation.

Pre- and Post-Silicon Validation :

- Contribute to validation using FPGA, emulation, and virtual platforms.

- Develop platform-level tests and validate on FPGA/first silicon.

- Debug and root-cause HW/FW/kernel-level issues.

Cross-Functional Collaboration :

- Work closely with architecture, hardware, and safety teams.

- Provide bring-up feedback influencing next-generation RISC-V CPU/SoC features.

- Support SDK adoption, release readiness, and customer enablement activities.

Requirements :

- 5+ years of experience in Embedded Linux Platform/BSP Development.

- Strong understanding of Embedded Systems and Linux Internals.

- Need Basic Knowledge On :

1. RISC-V (RV64) architecture

2. Multimedia stack exposure (camera/display/audio)

3. Secure boot and platform security

- QEMU or virtual platforms

- CI/CD and automated validation frameworks.

- B. E. /B. Tech or M. E. /M. Tech in Computer Engineering, Electronics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.

Mandatory Skills :

- Expert-level C programming.

- Embedded Linux, BSP, and Linux SDK development.

- Linux boot flow, MMU, interrupts, SMP concepts.

- U-Boot, OpenSBI, Linux Kernel, and Device Tree.

- Yocto/OpenEmbedded.

- SoC/platform bring-up and debugging.

- GDB and JTAG/OpenOCD/Lauterbach debugging tools.

- FPGA, emulation, or early silicon validation experience.
