We are looking for an experienced Linux Kernel Developer to join our system software engineering team. This position focuses on developing, maintaining, and optimizing Linux kernel components, particularly for x86 architectures. The successful candidate will work closely with Silicon Architects and other engineering teams to support early platform enablement in both presilicon and postsilicon environments. Strong expertise in Linux kernel development and the ability to debug complex system-level issues are essential for this role.

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field with 5+ years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree with 3+ years of relevant experience.
• Strong experience in Linux kernel development with emphasis on x86 platform architecture.
• Hands-on experience developing and debugging Linux kernel drivers and kernel subsystems.
• Experience working with one or more Linux kernel subsystems such as device drivers, memory management, power management, scheduling, or virtualization.

• Develop and maintain Linux kernel modules and device drivers for x86-based platforms.
• Support platform bring-up activities and early boot enablement in both presilicon and postsilicon environments.
• Collaborate with SoC design, firmware, and platform teams to define OS and kernel requirements for new hardware features.
• Implement and debug kernel functionality including ACPI integration and hardware interface protocols.
• Backport patches, apply security updates, and maintain stable kernel branches as part of platform productization.
• Contribute patches and enhancements to upstream Linux kernel subsystems when applicable.
• Optimize system performance through power/performance tuning and memory management improvements.
• Maintain kernel configuration, build environments, and development workflows using Git-based version control systems.

• Intel offers a comprehensive benefits package including competitive pay, stock programs, healthcare coverage, retirement plans, paid time off, parental leave, and programs supporting employee wellbeing and professional development.
