• Proven experience in a DevOps, SRE, or embedded systems role.
• Deep expertise in Linux internals and system-level configuration.
• Experience with declarative configuration management, preferably with Nix or NixOS, for creating reproducible build environments.
• Experience with CI/CD tools such as CircleCI .
• Proficiency in scripting languages like Python and Bash.
• Hands-on experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) and system integration labs (SIL).
• Experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration tailored for resource-constrained edge environments.
• Solid understanding of cybersecurity principles for embedded and edge devices, including core hardening techniques.
• Excellent communication and problem-solving skills.
