What we are looking for:
As an Android BSP Engineer, you will be responsible for the kernel and driver level system development, which includes building, troubleshooting, and writing automated tests for the Android system on our embedded payments platforms.

•
Own the definition of one or more work streams focused on hardware bring-up, peripheral drivers and communication, and power and performance management and optimization.
•
Analyze bug reports and manage the defect resolution process (disposition issues, resolve issues, and report issue status).
•
Interact with global teams with excellent communication skills to provide support information
•
Routinely perform code reviews to ensure high quality designs and implementation
•
Assist in ensuring quality and timeliness of product/feature development. Work closely with QA staff to ensure appropriate test cases are created, maintained, and executed.
