Philadelphia, PA
About the Job
JD:
At least 12-15 years experience in working with development of broadband devices and its releated components.
* Understanding of embedded systems and experience working with low-level hardware, including an understanding of CPU architectures, memory management, and device drivers.
· Proficiency in Linux and experience in configuring, customizing, and building Linux distributions, as RDK-B is built on top of Linux.
· Strong programming skills in C and C++, which are the primary languages used in RDK-B development.
· Familiarity with networking protocols, including TCP/IP, UDP, DHCP, DHCP, and VLANs and other relevant protocols for networking devices.
· Knowledge of the Yocto build system.
· Understanding of the Linux kernel, as RDK-B often involves kernel-level customization. This includes kernel configuration, device drivers, and kernel modules.
· Understanding of Linux system programming.
· Lead the design and development of software architecture, defining the structure and components of complex systems. Create architectural blueprints that guide the development team.
· You should have experience in defining the architecture for at least one broadband component.
· Proficiency with version control systems like Git for managing code repositories and collaboration with other developers.
· Scripting skills in shell languages like Bash for automation and scripting tasks in RDK-B
· Awareness of security best practices, as network devices need to be secure. This includes understanding encryption, authentication, and network security.
· Understanding of wireless technologies, including Wi-Fi, and how to configure wireless interfaces in RDK-B
