AbdelRahman Ali A.

I’m an Embedded Linux Developer with 7+ years of professional experience building, customizing, and maintaining Linux-based systems for embedded products, including projects in the automotive industry. I specialize in developing tailored Linux distributions, BSPs, low-level software, system integration, and debugging across different hardware platforms. I have hands-on experience working throughout the Embedded Linux stack—from bootloaders, kernels, device trees, and drivers to user-space applications and system services. My experience includes: • Embedded development using C, C++, Python, and Shell scripting • Yocto Project and Buildroot customization • Board Support Packages (BSP) for Qualcomm, NXP, BeagleBone, Raspberry Pi, and other platforms • Linux kernel configuration, customization, and debugging • Linux user-space and kernel-space driver development • Device Tree development and hardware bring-up • Bootloader, filesystem, UBI/UBIFS, and embedded storage integration • QEMU-based firmware and embedded system emulation • Automotive Embedded Linux development and system integration • Automotive communication technologies and network troubleshooting • OTA/FOTA software update systems • Debugging and optimization of complex embedded Linux systems I can help you build a customized Linux image from scratch, bring up new hardware, integrate or troubleshoot BSP components, develop low-level software, optimize an existing Embedded Linux system, or investigate difficult system-level issues. I focus on producing reliable, maintainable solutions while understanding both the software architecture and the underlying hardware.
