POSITION TITLE : OS kernel LINUX embedded RTOS file system; Silicon Valley
SKILLS REQUIREMENTS: OS kernel LINUX embedded RTOS file system

LOCATION : CA 408 Sunnyvale
START DATE : asap
PAY RATE : Full-time Permanent open
LENGTH : permanent
POSITION ID: 1091

COMMENTS: OS kernel LINUX embedded RTOS file system; Silicon
Valley
Our client develops advanced set-top boxes for digital
television. Initial product, which is in development,
will include an embedded operating system to manage
and present streamed multimedia content; box will be
networked with TV sets to receive broadband data
delivery via satellite
.
This company looks for very high caliber engineering
talent. Candidates with high energy, enthusiasm,
self-starters, and very team oriented people who also
are able to work independently. They must have a
passion for building leading edge technology, positive
attitudes regarding start up environments, i.e. wear a
lot of hats, implementers 1st, architects 2nd. Must
show a strong history of designing, implementing and
delivering, i.e. full cycle experience!
Generally, candidates from the Interactive TV,
embedded systems, multimedia (video, audio, and
compression) set top box and/or consumer electronics
arenas are particularly interesting.
Role:
Sr. member of their core OS design team designing,
developing and supporting a real-time embedded OS
based on LINUX. The overall project will involve
advanced technologies for streaming media management,
deterministic networking, high-performance file
systems, driver engineering, hardware bring-up
support, micro coding and more. This OS team member
will "own" the core kernel. They will be the "go to"
core kernel person. This is a phenominal opportunity
for anyone who wants to write fresh new code for a 1st
version embedded OS. Not to mention the exposure this
box will have once it hits the streets next January.
They are building the future of TV
. A lot of
engineers like the idea of building something that
their non technical friends and family can appreciate.
Experience:
Minimum of 2 years of industry experience.
Solid understanding and industry experience w/UNIX
(ideally LINUX) at the kernel level (File Systems, VM,
etc.).
RTOS & Embedded OS experience is a plus as long as
they have the solid UNIX systems level
experience/background.
Solid C / C++ programming experience. Full Cycle,
concept to production, project experience.
If interested and qualified, please contact:

OpenQs

When they say next Jan. they must mean Jan '00?

Who are these people? An established player, or someone with some VC money who wants to shake upthe established order?

Thanks in advance for any help.
