Job Summary
Your mission
The future of AI computing is light not electrons.
At we are building photonic processing systems that compute with lightdelivering a scalable energy-efficient alternative to transistor-based architectures for next-generation AI and high-performance computing.
AsSenior Embedded Linux Engineer (m/f/d) you take technical ownership of our embedded Linux stack: from custom Linux images and kernel/device drivers to production-ready field deployments. Youll work with technologies such as Yocto PetaLinux and Zephyr RTOS actively shaping the interface between photonic hardware and software.
