• Independently drive tasks and deliverables, demonstrating strong ownership and accountability.
• Communicate effectively with cross-functional teams and stakeholders.

Your Profile

• 4–5 years of experience in RTOS-based software development, preferably in WLAN systems.
• Strong hands-on experience with RTOS platforms such as Zephyr, FreeRTOS, or QNX.
• Solid understanding of operating system fundamentals including synchronization, process/thread management, memory management, and IPC.
• Experience designing and implementing peripheral drivers (SPI/UART/SDIO/PCIe) in an OS environment.
• Exposure to transport-level flow control mechanisms.
• Protocol knowledge in IEEE 802.11 or other networking protocols.
• Proven ability to work independently and collaborate with distributed teams.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electronics, or a related field.
• Experience with Qualcomm chipsets or WLAN system development is a plus.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
