As a senior member of the Android Wi-Fi team, you will be responsible for implementing new Wi-Fi features and standards (Wi-Fi 6/6E/7) that can span across different layers of Android (apps/framework/HAL), Wi-Fi Driver and Wi-Fi Firmware. You will be responsible for debugging connection, low-power and other performance related issues. You will be responsible for keeping track of all changes the Google does to Android Wi-Fi stack and implementing support for different Infineon chips. Responsible for keeping track of supplicant/ hostapd changes in the open-source community and planning those support for Infineon Wi-Fi Chips and upstreaming those patches to open source and Google repos. You are also responsible for ramping up on other skillsets like RTOS, Firmware and Linux Drivers.

In your new role you will:

• Will be responsible for bring up of Android on different H/W platforms which will include debugging at driver, Linux Kernel, SDIO/PCIe bus driver and android Wi-fi stack layers.
• Will be responsible for developing new Wi-Fi features that could span across android stack, Wi-Fi driver and firmware and should be able to debug Wi-Fi driver and firmware level issues.
• Will be responsible for understanding the changes done by Google to Wi-Fi architecture for new android versions at different layers: APPs, framework, HAL, supplicant, hostapd, driver and implement those support for Infineon Driver and Firmware.
• Should have good knowledge and able to debug issues at all layers of Android Wi-Fi Stack including Drivers.
• Should have good understanding of the Android CTS/VTS flow and be able to debug issues and add new test cases.
