Job Description:
The role
Engineers at Imagination Technologies are currently designing the world’s highest performing graphics processors. We need you to join the Linux driver development team and put your software development skills to the test. You will focus on developing and supporting the Linux driver stack, including Mesa, Wayland, DRI and kernel-mode graphics drivers. You will be a member of a small team, working alongside other software teams implementing the full driver stack for PowerVR graphics hardware.
As Linux is our main development and build environment, the Linux team are key to making sure that we and our partners can work at their best. This means that as well as developing Linux and Open Source specific portions of our proprietary driver - display, kernel interfaces and hardware-specific portions of Mesa and Wayland - there's exposure to build and source control.
This role will bring you into contact with current and future generations of 3D hardware targeting consumer and desktop devices.
You will:
* Design and develop Linux graphics drivers to drive our current and next generation graphics cores
* Maintain the drivers throughout the whole software and hardware lifecycles
* Be involved in the production and release of the driver software
* Work closely within the team and liaise with other research and development teams
About you
Committed to making your customers, stakeholders and colleagues successful, you’re an excellent communicator, listener and collaborator who builds trusted partnerships by delivering what you say, when you say. You’re curious, solutions orientated and a world-class problem solver who constantly seeks opportunities to innovate and achieve the best possible outcome to the highest imaginable standard.
You'll have:
* Experience with managing and configuring a Linux system
* A good understanding of computer architecture issues (virtual memory, MMUs, caches, etc.)
You might also have:
* Experience in low-level driver development for Linux or Windows
* Knowledge of the Linux graphics stack (XOrg, Mesa, Wayland, etc.)
* Some experience with graphics APIs (EGL, OpenGL ES, Vulkan etc.)
* Knowledge of how graphics hardware works
* Experience with platform bring-up, such as BSP development
* BEng or BSc in electronics, computer science or relevant experience
