Who we are: Lynx delivers modular, open standards-based software solutions that redefine the economics of developing, deploying, and maintaining high assurance, mission critical edge platforms. These secure edge computing solutions are designed to drive innovation and operational excellence in today’s most demanding environments. From advancing aerospace and defense capabilities to transforming commercial and industrial systems, Lynx collaborates across a wide range of industries, including automotive, medical, and critical infrastructure, to deliver tailored, high assurance solutions aligned with specific mission and operational requirements. Our key products and services are:
- LYNX Mosaic: A software platform that can include a LYNX safety-critical real-time operating system. MOSAI.ic's modular design provides robust support for multicore processing. It allows different operating systems and applications of different criticality levels to be run on separate cores for improved performance, reliability, and security.
- CoreSuite 2.0: A suite of graphics libraries and tools that enable GPU hardware acceleration for both graphics and "GPU Compute", supporting applications such as machine learning and AI processing in edge devices.
- MOSA.ic.SCA and Vigiles, tools that provide Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) and Common Vulnerabilities Exposure (CVE) management for embedded Linux-based and other applications.
- Software development services for high-reliability applications that can include initial setup of a "DevSecOps" development environment, software application development, and long-term product lifecycle management.
What you will be doing:
- Lead and mentor a small team of embedded engineers on best practices and technical know-how.
- Scheduling customer deliverables, managing team priorities, identifying resource gaps.
- Collaborate with the customer and internal teams to always enhance the overall project experience.
- Developing technical proposals to help customers make technical decisions.
- Working closely with the team to ensure the project deadlines are met and risks/issues are proactively identified and communicated to the customer.
- Ensure high quality of our deliverables.
- Contribute to the overall product design to help customers through various aspects of their product lifecycle.
- Be an embedded expert (kernel, CPU-architecture, general device-drivers, performance optimization, user-space) in the customer engineering team and enable customers in doing their embedded SW development.
- Be the system-SW generalist and take-up any technical challenge and resolve it through the right solution.
- Proactively notify Sales team of potential change order and drive it to completion as required on per-project basis.
- Perform additional job duties as assigned.
What we need to see:
- 5+ years of experience building and shipping embedded systems using RTOS or Linux.
- 2+ years of experience leading software development teams.
- Experience delivering DO-178C capabilities and certifications, or similar such as ISO26262.
- Good breadth of technical knowledge (SoC, Linux SW, Tools, Applications, embedded security).
- Proficiency in C, Git, and Yocto/OpenEmbedded.
- Familiarity with security features such as verified boot and trusted execution environments.
- Experience with root cause analysis, and advanced troubleshooting at kernel-level.
- Ability to track and work on multiple projects simultaneously while meeting schedules.
- Demonstrated experience of leading software projects while providing technical inputs to unblock supporting teams.
- Keen sense of urgency and drive for results.
- Ability to work independently with minimal oversight.
- Over and above, a deep commitment to your own quality work and a strong desire to help the entire team to succeed.
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
- Experience with Linux device drivers and bootloaders is a strong plus.
- Scripting and automation experience with Python, bash or similar languages is a strong plus.
- Experience working with open source communities to fix bugs, add features is a plus.
- Experience migrating drivers from one version of the Linux kernel to another is a plus.

What We Do
For over thirty years, Lynx Software Technologies has helped customers with some of the most demanding, mission critical, system requirements to create, certify, and deploy equipment, above, on and below the surface of the earth..
Lynx for the Internet of Things (IoT):
As billions of ‘things’ are connected to the internet, a new paradigm of security is required. Lynx offers real-time military-grade security products to protect the edge, the gateway and cloud devices while protecting any sensitive data as it traverses the IoT. Key Markets: Automotive, Industrial, Factory Automation, Medical and Transportation. Our LYNX MOSA.ic software framework and LynxSecure separation kernel hypervisor provide a secure foundation for this new generation of connected platforms.
Lynx for Enterprise Cyber Security:
To fight modern day malicious threats, security needs to be built-in rather than implemented as an afterthought. Lynx offers isolation technology that can be implemented in endpoint and cloud deployments to separate and protect critical enterprise infrastructure. This isolation technology separates sensitive information from the key attack points and denies infiltration and exfiltration attempts.
Lynx for Aerospace & Defense:
Lynx provides certified avionics RTOS solutions based on open standards such as POSIX, ARINC and FACE that allow reusability of certified code and systems. The FAA Reusable Software Component (RSC) has been issued to LynxOS-178. The LynxOS 7.0 RTOS and LynxSecure separation kernel technologies were designed to provide the highest levels of security without compromising performance and real-time determinism.
