Member of Technical Staff, Linux Kernel

Deepen kernel-level diagnosis and remediation. This is the foundational, cross-substrate seat: the platform's fixes are only as good as its kernel reasoning.

Note: this seat opens later. We're listing it now so the right person can introduce themselves early.

Location: Remote (4h overlap with Pacific or IST; Seattle or Bengaluru on-site preferred). Full-time.

The bar

• 10+ years of relevant engineering experience.

• Deep Linux kernel internals.

• Crash and ramdump forensics, live and post-mortem.

• Kernel tracing and profiling: ftrace, perf, eBPF.

• Driver and BSP experience.

• Strong C.

• Proficient in day-to-day work with CLI-based AI coding tools like Claude Code (or an equivalent). It's how the team operates, not a nice-to-have.

What you'll do

• Build ramdump and crash forensics: drgn, vmcoreinfo, ramdump parsing, post-mortem analysis under customer deadlines.

• Reason across scheduler, memory management, and driver internals.

• Ground remediations in kernel source.

Bonus

• Android kernel.

• ARM64 internals.

• Embedded / hardware bringup.

• drgn and crash tooling.

• Upstream contributions (patches accepted on LKML).

• Yocto distro bring-up.

In your application, tell us what you'd own here, and the hardest thing you've shipped in this domain.
