Embedded Systems Analyst or Engineer

Title: Embedded Systems Analyst or Engineer

Location: Dallas TX Onsite

Key Responsibilities

Requirements Ownership
o Write clear testable engineering requirements and acceptance criteria for OS services middleware and native/browser app runtimes.
o Maintain bi-directional traceability from product needs to requirementsdesign verification and release artifacts.
o Define interface contracts (APIs/ABIs IPC HAL boundaries) sequence/state diagrams and configuration schemas.
o Create governance for all driver API and registries.
o Establish compatibility and deprecation policies; manage versioning and change control for platform interfaces.
o Specify app lifecycle foreground/background rules resource quotas storage and caching policies permissions and update behaviors for native and
browser apps.
o Define requirements for WebView/HTML5 runtimes extensions and integration with platform services.
o Set requirements for core services: input display/composition audio routing networking time/services storage/FS power/thermal and updates.
o Capture constraints for startup ordering service health watchdogs and recovery behaviors.
o Define measurable targets (boot/app launch responsiveness memory footprint standby power stability) with SLAs and measurement methods.
o Specify profiling/observability requirements (logs metrics traces) and acceptance of thresholds without prescribing implementation.
o Author policies for OTA rollout/rollback gating and fleet segmentation; define readiness and exit criteria for releases.
o Translate requirements into TDD requirements for test automation.
o Define soak longevity and environmental test entry/exit criteria tied to non-functional targets.
o Specify SELinux/AppArmor policy requirements at a high level permission models data retention and privacy-by-default behaviors.
o Capture regional/regulatory requirements accessibility expectations localization/internationalization boundaries and time-to-cert readiness.
o Coordinate with Product OS/FW Middleware App QA and ODM partners to resolve requirement conflicts and align on scope sequencing and
resourcing.

Required Qualifications
o 7 years in embedded systems/platforms focused on requirements system analysis or platform engineering for consumer devices.
o Embedded Linux and/or Android TV (AOSP) knowledge including bootloaders kernel configuration device trees init/systemd and power
management concepts.
o Familiarity with native runtimes/SDKs and browser/HTML5/WebView app models (lifecycle packaging permissions update flows).
o Understanding of services/demons IPC and HAL abstractions.
o Strong C/C literacy; fundamentals in algorithms data structures concurrency and memory.
o Ability to read schematics/datasheets; comfort with I2C/SPI/UART GPIO display/audio paths input storage and connectivity peripherals.
o Proficient with Git CI/CD Jira/Confluence; excellent written and verbal communication for cross-functional audiences.

Preferred Qualifications
Experience with Android TV (AOSP) webOS Tizen or Roku OS.
Exposure to Yocto/Buildroot; familiarity with BSP/device drivers.
Awareness of graphics/composition (OpenGL ES/Vulkan).
Experience with factory/production test flows; telemetry/analytics for fleet health.
