Jobbannons

Do you want to work with the latest technologies and highly skilled colleagues, at a world leading company? Then you might be the one we are looking for to join us at Technologies, one of the departments within Axis R&D, with responsibility for developing Axis product platforms that are the base for all Axis Video Surveillance Products.

Who is your future team?

Product Platforms is a key part of the Technologies department at Axis R&D. Currently, it consists of four highly skilled and motivated R&D teams based in Lund, featuring a great mix of junior and senior team members. Our teams value personal growth, collaboration, and teamwork. If you're someone who enjoys making an impact and contributing to positive change, you'll feel right at home with us.

We are now expanding and building a new team in our Stockholm office to strengthen our capabilities.

The Product Platforms team in Stockholm will play a vital role in developing and configuring the software for Axis' new technology platforms based on our in-house engineered ARTPEC system-on-chips, which will be used in our next generations of video surveillance products. The platforms we develop are Linux-based and the the development environment is also Linux. The initial work for the team will focus on requirements, design, implementation, and validation of the boot, security and CPU subsystems. In addition to working closely with some of the Product Platform teams in Lund, the new team will also collaborate closely with the ASIC team based in our Stockholm office.

What you'll do here as Linux Kernel Engineer?

In your daily work, you will typically engage in the following activities:

• Participate in development and maintenance of existing Linux kernel platforms (e.g. previously developed platforms and products)
• Prepare SW for and participate in bring-up and validation of our SoCs. This includes debugging issues and implementing solutions.
• Evaluation of hardware blocks, platforms and related documentation (mainly from a SW perspective, Linux kernel in particular)
• Interact with internal and external teams (e.g. customers, partners or suppliers)

In this role, you will be working with all kinds of engineering activities related to Linux kernel development (e.g. driver development, kernel configuration, upstream activities, kernel maintenance, provide domain expertise to other teams, etc).

Who are we looking for/Who are you?

You are an analytic and dedicated person with a strong personal drive and an ability to work both unsupervised and as a part of a team. You have the ability to think ahead and understand and manage consequences of complex decisions or findings. You are good at collaborating with people with different backgrounds (e.g. ASIC engineers, other SW teams, external partners and managers) and have a strong attention to detail.

Required qualifications:

• A master's degree in computer science, physics, mathematics, electrical engineering or similar
• Background in Linux kernel development
• Experience in embedded C development and debugging, particularly close to hardware
• Familiarity with version control systems and code review tools (Git and Gerrit)

Additional valuable qualifications:

• Experience in working with Linux kernel upstream
• Background including SoC design work from a SW perspective
• ASIC IP configuration experience
• A good understanding of the boot process of embedded devices
• Basic understanding of ASIC design
• Experience from using QEMU as a tool to make a system simulation environment
• Experience with Python and Rust development

The position is office-based and you will be located in Axis office in Stockholm, Sweden.

What Axis have to offer

We are a world leader in network video, where cutting-edge technology meets global impact.

Here, you'll contribute to meaningful projects that shape the future of security and surveillance - developing solutions used worldwide.

As a fast-growing company, we offer exciting career opportunities. You'll grow professionally through continuous learning, supported by a collaborative team that values creativity, innovation, and work-life balance.

This is a unique opportunity to be part of building our new R&D office in central Stockholm. You'll enjoy the advantages of working at a small, agile site while also being part of a successful organization that is already the world leader in network video.

Your well-being matters to us. We offer a range of benefits, including a company bonus, Friday cake, wellness allowance, health insurance - and even your own Axis bicycle.
