Senior SW Engineer – Embedded Linux SDK & Distribution (M/W/D)

Mobileye is looking for a passionate Systems Software Developer to join the Operating System Team in theEyeQ Platform Software Group. While many work on Linux, we work in Linux. Our team is responsible for thecore OS DNA of the EyeQ computer vision SoC, defining how the system starts, is composed, and manages itslifecycle in a high-performance automotive environment.We are looking for an experienced systems engineer to join our Core Distribution team. The center of this roleis the Linux userspace and the distribution itself: boot and service bring-up, root filesystem composition, andthe integration of external SDK into that platform. You will also build Python-based deployment tooling so theOS and SDK stack can be provisioned reproducibly - infrastructure and tool development in service of the OS. What will your job look like Architect and develop Linux userspace and service bring-up so the distribution boots into a consistent,operational platform under embedded constraints. Enable and integrate an SDK into the OS image - drivers, libraries, runtimes, and filesystem layout asfirst-class distribution components. Own distribution composition, including packages, sysroots, and image features that make the SDK andcore OS a maintainable, versioned platform. Develop Python-based deployment tooling to provision targets with a reproducible OS + SDK environment(image delivery, flashing, and environment setup). Debug at the OS boundary - init/service failures, library and ABI mismatches, missing dependencies, andSDK/runtime issues on the target. Perform root cause analysis on system-level failures in the distribution, from boot and userspace bring-upthrough a fully operational stack. Collaborate on board bring-up, tailoring the distribution and SDK integration to new EyeQ generations andrelated target hardware. All you need is: Outstanding graduate in Computer Science or similar field. 5+ years of experience in Embedded Linux development, with a focus on systems software, userspace, ordistribution work. Strong C/C++ skills and a solid understanding of POSIX APIs, libraries, and how userspace talks to thekernel. Deep knowledge of Linux Internals, specifically the boot process (Bootloaders, Kernel hand-off, Initsystems) and root filesystem layout. Hands-on experience with Embedded Linux Distributions (e.g., custom Yocto recipes, Buildroot, orLinux-from-scratch). Experience enabling vendor SDKs or BSP stacks on Linux — integrating third-party drivers, runtimes, anduserspace components into a custom image. Proficiency in debugging tools like GDB, Valgrind, strace, and perf. Experience with Python for infrastructure and tool development — deployment, packaging, andenvironment setup. Nice to have: Background in Automotive Software .\ Experience with GPU/accelerator compute stacks (driver + userspace runtime, inference/computelibraries, cross-sysroot workflows). Familiarity with reading hardware schematics and reasoning about basic hardware interfaces and signal. Mobileye changes the way we drive, from preventing accidents to semi and fully autonomous vehicles.
