Staff Embedded Software Engineer, Pixel

Job description

Define and maintain the multi-generation software architecture for Low-Speed IO (LSIO) subsystems across Linux kernel (upstream/GKI and vendor modules) and bare-metal/Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) firmware environments. Lead pre-silicon validation strategies using Gem5, QEMU, and FPGA emulation platforms to enable day-one silicon bring-up and maximize pre-silicon driver coverage. Partner closely with Silicon Architecture, Digital Design, Board EE, and peripheral client teams (Camera, Audio, Touch, Sensors, Wireless) to ensure seamless connectivity with LSIO peripherals. Provide technical guidance, code reviews, and architectural mentorship to team members across global sites.
