Job Title: Linux Power & Thermal Validation Engineer Location: Hyderabad Experience Level: 1 to 7 years Job Type: Full-Time Notice Period: Immediate to 15days Key Responsibilities: Validate and optimize Linux-based power and thermal management features for embedded or consumer-grade systems. Test and verify power states (e.g., CPUIdle, CPUFreq, suspend/resume, SoC low-power modes). Analyze power consumption and thermal behavior under various workloads using tools like powertop , thermal_zone , perf , and trace-cmd . Validate drivers for power domains, regulators, clocks, and thermal sensors. Work closely with SoC and kernel teams to ensure proper implementation of power and thermal policies. Perform regression testing for new kernel drops and patches related to power/thermal subsystems. Identify and debug power anomalies or overheating issues by analyzing kernel logs and hardware signals. Generate technical reports on power consumption, thermal profiles, and system behavior across test conditions. Required Skills: Strong understanding of Linux power management subsystems (suspend/resume, DVFS, PM QoS). Deep knowledge of Linux thermal framework , thermal governors, and sensor calibration/validation. Experience in driver testing and validation , particularly for PMICs, thermal sensors, and regulator frameworks. Proficient in kernel debugging tools and interpreting dmesg/logcat outputs. Hands-on experience with performance and thermal profiling tools (e.g., powertop, turbostat, iostat, sar). Scripting skills for automation using Shell , Python , or similar languages. Solid understanding of hardware-software interaction in power and thermal domains. Note - Exclude Saturdays and Sundays for Walk-in
