About the Role
As a Platform Engineer at AeroVect, you will own the reliability, performance, and scalability of the software foundation that powers our autonomous ground vehicle fleet. You will be responsible for managing and optimizing our Ubuntu‑based operating system images, middleware, and device drivers that interface with a diverse multi‑sensor ROS 2 stack. Your work enables our perception and autonomy teams to iterate rapidly and deliver safe, production‑ready capabilities to customers worldwide.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain custom Ubuntu/Linux distributions tailored for real‑time, safety‑critical autonomous vehicle workloads.
- Optimize and tune ROS 2 DDS middleware for low‑latency, high‑throughput multi‑sensor data flows.
- Develop, integrate, and maintain kernel modules and user‑space drivers for LiDARs, cameras, radars, GNSS/INS, CAN, and other vehicle interfaces.
- Maintain and expand the network interfaces of the system.
- Implement observability and logging solutions to monitor system health, performance, and resource utilization.
- Collaborate with autonomy, perception, and controls engineers to profile CPU/GPU usage and remove bottlenecks.
- Harden the platform for production by applying security patches, enforcing secure boot, and implementing over‑the‑air (OTA) update pipelines.
- Own CI/CD pipelines for OS images and driver packages; automate build, test, and deployment processes.
- Provide on‑call support for platform components during field trials and customer pilots.
- Contribute to technical documentation and best‑practice guidelines.
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience developing or maintaining Linux‑based embedded or robotics platforms.
- Deep knowledge of Ubuntu or Linux systems, including package management, systemd, networking, and kernel configuration.
- Proficiency in C/C++ and Python; experience writing or debugging kernel modules and user‑space drivers.
- Hands‑on experience with ROS 1 or ROS 2 in a production or research setting.
- Familiarity with common communication buses and protocols (USB, Ethernet, CAN, PCIe, SPI, I2C).
- Strong grasp of real‑time performance tuning, profiling tools, and resource‑constrained optimization.
- Experience with Git, Docker/OCI containers, and automated build systems (Yocto, Buildroot, or similar).
