Lead the delivery. Align the teams. Turn complex engineering into results.
We’re looking for an experienced Delivery Lead – Embedded OS to lead the execution of a highly specialized embedded engineering team working at the intersection of firmware, embedded Linux, hardware, and connected devices.
This is a key leadership role for someone who combines robust delivery discipline with technical fluency — someone who understands the realities of embedded development, hardware bring-up, and cross-functional dependencies, while keeping teams aligned, risks visible, and critical milestones on track.
You’ll serve as the single point of accountability for delivery, connecting the Embedded OS team with Mobile, Cloud, Network, and external hardware/engineering partners.
