  • Write high-quality code to create new features and contribute upstream.
  • Contribute to feature and bug fixes in projects including Grub, shim, u-boot, and associated tools.
  • Debug issues and produce high-quality fixes.
  • Review code produced by other engineers.

Valued Skills and Qualifications:
  • Development experience with early boot software like TF-A, OP-TEE, U-Boot, shim, GRUB, or the Linux kernel.
  • Experience on non-x86 platforms such as ARM, RISC-V.
  • A love of technology and working with brilliant people.
  • Motivated, curious, flexible, articulate, and accountable.
  • A long-time Linux user with broad interests in the future of Linux.
  • Experience or interest in learning how to package software for Debian and Ubuntu.
