Enthusiastic about working on low-level / systems software (eg loader and bootstrapping for an FPGA board). We also need to modify the standard libraries and managed programming language runtimes to make use of novel memory-management and garbage collection hardware.

Along with a strong understanding of C / C++, ability to ‘self-start’, and co-ordinate with the software and hardware teams, we'd like experience with or a strong desire to work on :

• Board Support Packages
• Modifying or implementing standard libraries e.g. glibc or similar
• Modifying the Toolchain (compiler, linker etc)
• Manipulating ELF files
• Debugging and adding extensions to enable debugging of code running inside an interpreter running inside a software model
• Ideally experience with inline assembly or just assembly programming in general
