Senior Embedded Linux Engineer (m/f/d)

Your mission The future of AI computing is light, not electrons. At Q.ANT , we are building photonic processing systems that compute with light—delivering a scalable, energy-efficient alternative to transistor-based architectures for next-generation AI and high-performance computing. As Senior Embedded Linux Engineer (m/f/d) , you take technical ownership of our embedded Linux stack: from custom Linux images and kernel/device drivers to production-ready field deployments.

You'll work with technologies such as Yocto, PetaLinux, and Zephyr RTOS, actively shaping the interface between photonic hardware and software. Your Impact &

Define and own the in-house embedded Linux stack and embedded software for our photonic AI accelerators Develop and maintain custom Linux images (Yocto/PetaLinux) as well as kernel and device drivers Interface on-chip and off-chip components via MMIO, AXI, PCIe, SPI, I2C, and UART under real-time requirements Define and develop host-Linux-based components, including Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability (RAS) tasks in the Linux host system Establish best practices, tools, and methods for building custom Linux and embedded software solutions Coach and develop junior and mid-level engineers Collaborate closely with R&D software engineers, processor architects, and digital design engineers Ensure successful bring-ups and field deployments Your profile M.
