Principal Linux/Android Platform Developer
We’re hiring a Principal Linux / Android Platform Developer to join a highly respected engineering team building mission-critical communication devices used by emergency services, transport networks, and infrastructure organisations worldwide.
This isn’t app development. This is low-level, platform engineering on products that need to perform in the real world, where reliability is essential.
The Role
You’ll play a key role in developing and evolving Android-based embedded platforms used in next-generation communication devices.
This is a broad, hands-on platform role, working across Linux and Android to solve complex system-level challenges.
You’ll be involved in:
- Android platform development (AOSP)
- Linux kernel and system-level programming
- Platform configuration, optimisation and tuning
- Android framework and service-level changes
- Performance, latency and power optimisation
- Debugging, profiling and system analysis
- Integration, testing and issue resolution
- Contributing to technical design and architecture
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for a strong engineer with experience across Linux and Android platform development, ideally within embedded or device-based environments.
Key skills:
- Strong understanding of Android internals and architecture
- Experience working with AOSP
- Solid Linux systems / kernel experience
- Strong C++ development skills
- Experience with embedded or battery-powered devices
- Experience optimising system performance and behaviour
