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:

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. |
