System Stability and Debug Engineer

About Company

Founded in 2022, XG Tech is driving the future of smart vehicles. Its mission is to empower the digital transformation of automobiles, moving from distributed computing to a centralized, cross-domain platform.

XG Tech focuses on the intelligent cockpit—the next frontier of differentiation—while seamlessly integrating advanced driving systems. By reimagining cars as mobile living spaces, XG Tech aligns with the evolving trend of vehicles becoming the “third living space.”

Role Summary

As a System Stability and Debug Engineer, you will develop and optimize system-level software for next-generation SoCs, focusing on Linux kernel, RTOS, and driver layers. You will tackle complex stability challenges—such as system crashes, deadlocks, memory leaks, and performance bottlenecks—ensuring reliable and high-performance operation for smart vehicle and embedded platforms.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement underlying stability solutions for chip software systems, resolving critical issues like system crashes, deadlocks, memory leaks, and performance degradation
• Participate in chip bring-up debugging, including Bootloader startup, Linux kernel initialization, and hardware exception troubleshooting
• Analyze chip-level anomalies (e.g., cache consistency, bus errors) and system-level faults (e.g., scheduling delays, I/O bottlenecks, power management issues), promoting collaborative software-hardware optimization
• Investigate and resolve Linux kernel and driver layer issues, including scheduling, memory management, file systems, and I/O performance
• Develop product performance and stability verification plans, implement automated tests (e.g., kernel panic injection, long-term stability frameworks), and enhance system reliability
• Modify, optimize, and extend Linux/RTOS system-level code to meet feature, performance, and stability requirements

How will you stand out

• Bachelor’s degree or above in Electronics, Computer Science, Automation, or related fields, with ≥5 years of experience in Linux kernel or embedded system development
• Deep understanding of Linux kernel architecture and core mechanisms, including memory management, file systems, process scheduling, and driver frameworks
• Proficient in debugging toolchains (GDB, ftrace, perf, crash, addr2line) and stability debugging tools (KASAN, memoryleak, pageowner); capable of independently analyzing kernel Oops/Panic logs
• Skilled in real-time online debugging (JTAG/T32) and offline ramdump analysis
• Hands-on experience with chip/embedded system bring-up, Bootloader (LK/U-Boot/UEFI) porting, Linux kernel porting, driver development; familiar with ATF, Device Tree (DTS), and low-level driver debugging (clock/interrupt/DMA)
• Familiar with ARM or RISC-V architectures; experience in automotive, mobile, or SoC/GPU/NPU stability development is a strong advantage
• Strong technical curiosity with systematic problem-solving skills to reproduce and resolve complex issues
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, driving closed-loop resolution across multiple teams
