LINUX PLATFORM SOFTWARE ENGINEER

At YORA, we bring together sharp people who want to build, challenge, and move technology forward.

We are now looking for a Linux Platform Software Engineer to develop and evolve advanced Linux-based runtime platforms at the core

of complex, high-performance systems.

You will work close to the hardware, developing everything from operating system components and middleware to system-level

software, automation, and integration.

This is the right role for someone who enjoys Linux, C/C++, system programming, and distributed systems — and wants to understand

how software and hardware work together at a deeper level.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As a Linux Platform Software Engineer, you will work with a core computing platform consisting of multiple Linux-based computers

connected through high-speed fiber-optic networks.

The platform provides the runtime foundation for advanced technical systems, where stability, performance, security, and reliable

communication between components are essential.

You will be involved in designing, developing, integrating, and maintaining the platform software, working across the Linux

operating system, middleware, system services, and development tooling.

You will collaborate closely with system architects, application developers, and testing teams to build a stable and efficient

runtime environment.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Design, develop, and maintain Linux-based runtime platforms

Integrate, configure, and optimize Linux distributions for embedded and distributed systems

Develop system-level software, services, and tools using C/C++ and Python

Build and maintain Bash scripts for automation, deployment, and system administration

Work with Linux kernel configuration, system services, and boot processes

Troubleshoot complex issues involving operating systems, networking, and hardware

Work with Linux networking, including fiber-optic communication and complex network topologies

Integrate and maintain build environments using Yocto or similar tools

Contribute to CI/CD pipelines, version control, and development workflows

Participate in architecture discussions, technical decisions, and continuous platform improvements

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

You have a strong interest in Linux-based software development and enjoy working close to the operating system, hardware, and

underlying system architecture.

We believe you bring:

Several years of experience in software development on Linux platforms

Strong Linux knowledge, including installation, configuration, and troubleshooting of headless systems

Hands-on development experience with C/C++

Good knowledge of Python and/or Bash for automation and tooling

Experience with system-level software development and debugging

Understanding of Linux networking and network communication

Experience with Git and modern software development workflows

Experience working with CI/CD environments, preferably Jenkins

Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently in complex technical environments

NICE TO HAVE

Experience in any of the following areas is highly valued:

Yocto, Buildroot, or other embedded Linux solutions

Linux kernel, device drivers, or Board Support Package (BSP) development

Container technologies such as Docker or Podman

Embedded systems and hardware-near software development

Cybersecurity and Linux system hardening

Distributed systems and advanced network topologies

Experience from defense, aerospace, telecommunications, or automotive industries

WHO YOU ARE

You are a technically curious engineer who enjoys understanding how systems work beneath the surface.

You like solving challenging problems across software, operating systems, networking, and hardware — and you are comfortable

taking ownership from investigation to implementation.

You value collaboration, technical quality, and continuous learning, and enjoy working with other engineers to build robust and

high-performing systems.
