The Embedded Platform organization of the Core Operating Systems group is committed to building fully integrated operating systems that combine hardware, software, and apps into a single experience.
Your dedication to cross-disciplinary collaboration will help develop groundbreaking technologies, such as iOS, watchOS, and tvOS. By crafting these distinct, holistic user experiences, youll continue to uphold and advance the excellence people expect from devices.
The Embedded Platform Team within CoreOS organization is looking for a talented embedded software engineer to help with pre-silicon simulation, early silicon support and development of the boot-loader, device drivers and platform software for future generations of iOS devices.
Working on a core technology, you have the opportunity to make a major impact in the way that develops and ships iOS products.
Our environment fosters product innovation, rapid product iteration, and a liberating amount of autonomy.
Weʼre looking for detail-oriented engineers with exceptional problem-solving skills and a passion for quality who want to define and build future iOS systems.
Description
You will play a central role in building the support for iOS system development ranging from the pre-silicon and early silicon phases, including involvement in specification review for new SoCs, work with system simulation technologies, boot firmware, low-level device drivers, and new system bring up.
You will work closely with internal and external teams to enable firmware development long before first hardware availability and will continue to work on system software until the product ships.
The ideal candidate should be comfortable working on a large spectrum of issues ranging from hardware/silicon issues to overall system operation, performance and power management.
A genuine passion for embedded development:
Highly proficient in C/C++.
Understanding of ARM assembly is a plus.
