Job Description:

As a Senior Embedded Engineer at Syntech, you will play a key role in driving the development of our industry-leading fuel control and accounting systems. Our embedded platforms are built around Linux, and we leverage the Yocto Project to craft custom Linux distributions that support our Java/OSGi applications and edge devices. At Syntech, we take IoT seriously—and we’re looking for someone who shares that passion, especially when it comes to Linux’s role within that space.

Job Responsibility:

Support software running on hardware that interacts with users and other connected devices
Innovate and problem-solve to create effective technical solutions to complex challenges

Requirements:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field — or show us why your experience speaks louder than a diploma
Requires a consistent and dependable work history, ideally reflecting 3-5 years of tenure with each previous employer
Strong experience with Linux, including at least 5 years building and maintaining Linux distributions
Proficiency in Python and POSIX shell scripting
Comfortable using Git and modern source control workflows
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Able to produce clear, effective documentation — from design specs to code comments
A passion for technology, combined with a collaborative and self-driven attitude

Nice to have:

Building custom Linux distributions with Yocto
Modifying and configuring U-Boot bootloaders
Writing, debugging, or customizing Linux device drivers
Integrating and adapting open-source software for embedded platforms
IoT security principles and best practices
