As a Senior Software Engineer on the Applied Sciences Group team, you will help build Project Solara, a chip-to-cloud platform for agent-first devices. You will design, implement, and integrate software across Android-based devices and embedded platform components, focusing on hardware abstraction layers and native system services. Your daily work involves driving device connectivity capabilities for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low Energy, USB, audio, and sensors. You will lead hardware bring-up activities, diagnose complex system-level issues across operating-system, driver, firmware, and chipset layers, and develop automated verification and hardware-in-the-loop testing. The role requires proficiency in C, C++, and Python to solve technical problems involving wireless technologies and system protocols. You will collaborate with silicon partners and vendors to move device changes from design through validation and release.
