Senior/Staff AOSP Platform Engineer
Blue, Santa Clara, California
The role
You will own Blue OS below the app layer: the system image, framework and SystemUI changes, privileged services, and the release pipeline that gets each build onto customers' phones. When a build goes out, you decide whether it is ready and how it rolls out. This role is as much about safety, review and releases, as new features. Expect to say no.
What you will do
- The OS image. Framework overlays, SystemUI and keyguard changes, default permissions and role grants, SELinux policy, and our privileged system app.
- Releases and OTA. Staged rollouts, update signing, recovery from a failed update, and staying current with new Android releases.
- Platform quality. Device tests on real hardware for every image, crash and ANR reports from the field, and review of every change that touches the OS.
