Would be a plus:
Experience of building/optimization software for ARM processors;
Experience with Virtualization software, HyperVisor;
Assembly language (x86_64 or aarch64).
Linux kernel development experience is mandatory. It can be in various forms, candidates could have:
Contributing to actual Linux kernel in any way, Making and supporting custom Linux distributions for their projects/customers, Developing custom *nix-based operating systems, Participating in device driver development for Linux (could be developing a driver for some specific/new device from scratch, or supporting some existing drivers, be it actual new features or just bug fixing). Other kinds of software that could be considered as kernel-level are: custom file systems or file system managers, custom memory management tools, custom process schedulers, custom network protocols (but that anyway would imply doing driver development as well)
Candidates also could have experience developing virtualization tools (and that would automatically imply they’re experienced in kernel stuff as well due to the nature of the job): contributing to any open-source virtualization tools (like KVM or QEMU), working for any of the virtualization or cloud provider projects (VMWare, Azure)

„The whole hiring process was a really positive experience for me. I was given the opportunity to move forward professionally and to test myself in a new, more senior role. I was trusted from the start, and I had all the support I needed to take the next step in my career with confidence. They connected me with the right technical contact, and every question I had was answered quickly and clearly, so I never felt left on my own. Communication was smooth, each step built on the one before, and the whole process moved surprisingly fast and without a hitch.”

“Looking back over more than 15 years, Swicon gets top marks from me: it has built itself into a fast-growing multinational, and all the while it has backed its people professionally across the board — it even supported my PMP certification with a proper training course.”
B. T. – Sr. Projectmanager
“I’ve been working with SWICON for almost a year and a half now, and it’s been a positive experience from start to finish. Both the hiring process and the admin side of things ran smoothly, and whenever I had a question, help came quickly. I particularly appreciate how kind and helpful my colleagues are, and the fact that the company genuinely invests in building a community — there are regular programmes and events.
I’ve grown a lot professionally in my time here, too. My tasks and my responsibilities have kept widening, I’ve been able to take on more complex challenges, and I’ve also had the chance to support and mentor others. On the IT side I’ve been given opportunities that made a real difference to where I am professionally, so on the whole I see SWICON as a supportive place that gives you genuine room to grow.”
