About this role

Mach Industries seeks an Embedded Autonomy Engineer to own the Linux mission computer powering autonomous defense systems in GPS-denied environments. You'll integrate high-bandwidth sensors, optimize real-time perception pipelines for NVIDIA Jetson platforms, and bridge embedded Linux infrastructure with autonomy and inference workloads.

What you'll do

  • Bring up and maintain Linux mission computers on NVIDIA Jetson/Tegra SoCs: BSP, device trees, kernel, bootloaders
  • Integrate high-bandwidth MIPI CSI cameras, SerDes (GMSL/FPD-Link), radar, and achieve time-sync across sensor suite
  • Build and optimize zero-copy, DMA-based sensor-to-GPU pipelines for real-time perception and inference
  • Deploy and maintain CUDA/TensorRT runtime, GPU scheduling, edge containers, and autonomy middleware on target hardware
  • Harden compute platform for flight: power, thermal, SWaP, vibration, boot reliability under field constraints
  • Debug integration with logic analyzers and oscilloscopes; define software-hardware specs with electrical engineers

What they're looking for

  • Embedded Linux (5+ years): device tree, BSP, kernel bring-up, Yocto/L4T
  • Camera and sensor integration: MIPI CSI, V4L2, GMSL/FPD-Link SerDes
  • C, C++, Bash, Python
  • Hardware debugging: logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, CAN, UART, schematic reading
  • NVIDIA Jetson, CUDA, TensorRT, GStreamer/DeepStream
  • Real-time optimization and performance tuning under SWaP constraints
  • ROS 2 and autonomy stack integration
  • Multi-sensor time-sync and calibration

Likely interview questions

  • Walk us through a Linux bring-up you've owned on custom SoC hardware—what were the hardest parts with device trees, kernel configuration, or bootloaders?
  • Describe your deepest experience integrating MIPI CSI cameras or SerDes (GMSL/FPD-Link) into a real Linux system. How did you optimize latency and memory efficiency?
