C, very strong skill with high code quality standards - Good experience in writing low level C code in boot loaders, Linux kernel and lower user space, especially in embedded device environment - Wide understanding over various subsystems within the Linux kernel. Good experience with debugging issues all the way from user space through the kernel to the device register level- Deep understanding over the memory management in the kernel and inter process memory sharing models- Good understanding over concurrency and locking problems on parallel execution environment - Optimization experience eg. with boot time, memory usage, file system footprint, especially in low level environment from lower user space stack to all the way to hardware level- Collaborating with mainline Linux kernel community to get patches merged - scripting (bash, sed, awk, Makefile, CMake), everything that is needed when things are needed to be put together quickly Specialities: Strong C programming skills with high code quality standards. Linux kernel and device driver development, good understanding over many kernel interfaces all the way from user space to HW. Good experience with git version control system and Linux kernel patchwork.
