Senior Systems Analyst​/Engineer

Role Summary:

As the lead for authoring engineering requirements and system specifications, you will partner closely with cross-functional teams including Product, OS/Firmware, Middleware, App, Quality Assurance (QA), and Original Design Manufacturer (ODM) partners. Your goal will be to align requirements, architecture, and delivery across all platform layers.

Key Responsibilities:

• Requirements Ownership
• Maintain bi-directional traceability from product needs to requirements, design, verification, and release artifacts.
• Define interface contracts (APIs/ABIs, IPC, HAL boundaries), sequence/state diagrams, and configuration schemas.
• Create governance for all driver API and registries.
• Establish compatibility and deprecation policies; manage versioning and change control for platform interfaces.
• Define requirements for Web View/HTML5 runtimes, extensions, and integration with platform services.
• Set requirements for core services: input, display/composition, audio routing, networking, time/services, storage/FS, power/thermal, and updates.
• Capture constraints for startup ordering, service health, watchdogs, and recovery behaviors.
• Define measurable targets (boot/app launch, responsiveness, memory footprint, standby power, stability) with SLAs and measurement methods.
• Specify profiling/observability requirements (logs, metrics, traces) and acceptance of thresholds without prescribing implementation.
• Author policies for OTA rollout/rollback, gating, and fleet segmentation; define readiness and exit criteria for releases.
• Translate requirements into TDD requirements for test automation.
• Define soak, longevity, and environmental test entry/exit criteria tied to nonfunctional targets.
• Specify SELinux/App Armor policy requirements at a high level, permission models, data retention, and privacy-by-default behaviors.
• Capture regional/regulatory requirements, accessibility expectations, localization/internationalization boundaries, and time-to-cert readiness.
• Coordinate with Product, OS/FW, Middleware, App, QA, and ODM partners to resolve requirement conflicts and align on scope, sequencing, and resourcing.

Required Qualifications:

• Experience
• 7+ years in embedded systems/platforms focused on requirements, system analysis, or platform engineering for consumer devices.
• Embedded Linux and/or Android TV (AOSP) knowledge, including bootloaders, kernel configuration, device trees, init/systemd, and power management concepts.
• Understanding of services/demons, IPC, and HAL abstractions.
• Strong C/C++ literacy; fundamentals in algorithms, data structures, concurrency, and memory.
• Ability to read schematics/datasheets; comfort with I2C/SPI/UART, GPIO, display/audio paths, input, storage, and connectivity peripherals.
• Proficient with Git, CI/CD, Jira/Confluence; excellent written and verbal communication for cross-functional audiences.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Android TV (AOSP), webOS, Tizen, or Roku OS.
• Exposure to Yocto/Buildroot; familiarity with BSP/device drivers.
• Awareness of graphics/composition (OpenGL ES/Vulkan).
• Experience with factory/production test flows; telemetry/analytics for fleet health. If you are passionate about building robust Smart TV platforms and enjoy collaborating across disciplines to define and deliver high-impact requirements, we encourage you to apply.
