• Degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Electrical Engineering, or comparable technical training.
• 7+ years of professional experience in Linux system development.
• Strong understanding of Linux architecture and subsystems.
• Proficiency in C/C++, Python, and Bash.
• Advanced skills in at least one specialised area (e.g., base system, kernel, hardware support, display, audio, bootloader, or window manager).

• A mindset that values collaboration, innovation, and continuous learning.

What’s on offer

• Hybrid working options with a base in Augsburg.
• The chance to work on a product used globally, influencing the evolution of secure Linux computing.
