Back
Tier-1 brand and metro location balanced by niche embedded/kernel specialization and seniority.
High - embedded Linux and device-driver expertise is highly domain-specific and not easily transferable.
Explicit senior-years plus specialized kernel, device-driver and hardware bring-up requirements make screening highly strict.
