Job Overview:

BlackBerry QNX stands as a reliable provider of secure and safe operating systems, hypervisors, frameworks, and development tools, offering expert support and services for constructing the world's most critical embedded systems.

  • Provide technical leadership in QNX kernel and core OS research and development.
  • Develop and document software specifications and designs that fulfill customer requirements.
  • Conduct peer reviews to ensure adherence to design guidelines.
  • Write code and execute programming tasks according to specifications.
  • Create and run automated unit tests.
  • Identify, analyze, and resolve complex software deficiencies.
  • Provide project estimates for requirements, design, implementation, and testing efforts.

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Familiarity with POSIX-based operating system architectures.
  • Understanding of user-level processes across all layers of the operating system, including process and thread life cycles, memory management, system calls, and inter-process communication.
  • Knowledge of operating system principles, including scheduling, concurrency, and resource management.
  • Understanding of multi-CPU, multithreaded architectures and real-time systems.
  • Strong problem-solving and debugging capabilities.
  • Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written.
  • High motivation and ability to work independently as well as collaboratively.

Additional Assets:

  • Experience with version control systems such as git and SVN, as well as the GNU toolset.
