About Glydways

Glydways, Inc. is an American transportation technology and clean energy company based in South San Francisco, CA. The company specializes in the design, manufacture, installation and operation of affordable autonomous transportation for low, medium and extremely high capacity needs. Founded in 2016 by engineer and entrepreneur Mark Seeger, the company was started with the goal of providing affordable mobility for communities across the world. This goal is founded in the belief that access to affordable housing, employment, education and care lead to economic and social prosperity, and the key to this equity is mobility for as many people as possible. Lead by Seeger who serves as CEO, the company’s core objectives are to provide a 24/7 mobility service solution that is environmentally net-negative in terms of greenhouse gas production (GHG), and, inherently profitable. GHG-negative is achieved through the invention and use of power-efficient technologies to reduce the watt-hours-per-person-per-unit-distance traveled, and, photovoltaics embedded into the infrastructure. Economic sustainability is achieved by designing for operational costs that are inherently lower than revenue collected when selling a ride. The key comes from decoupling the unit-costs from the utilization of the system, something that is not possible with existing pubic/mass transportation systems. By being financially sustainable, Glydways relieves municipalities of the vast annual subsidies required to operate existing solutions, which are inherently unprofitable and thereby a fiscal burden to public budgets. Further, the Glydways business model allows for private capitalization of entire systems.Glydways provides the highest capacity, at the lowest cost, with the best user experience, and the lowest greenhouse gas footprint of any mobility solution, providing a personal, on-demand, and point-to-point journey with no stops between origin and destination.

Job description

Who we are:

Glydways is reimagining what public transit can be. We believe that mobility is the gateway to opportunity—connecting people to housing, education, employment, commerce, and care. By making transportation more accessible, affordable, and sustainable, we empower communities to thrive and unlock economic and social prosperity.

Our mission is to revolutionize transit with a solution that delivers high capacity, exceptional user experiences, unmatched affordability, and minimal environmental impact.

The Glydways system is a groundbreaking network of carbon-neutral, interconnected transit pathways powered by standardized autonomous vehicles on dedicated roadways. Operating 24/7 with on-demand access, it offers personalized and efficient mobility—without the burden of heavy upfront infrastructure costs or ongoing taxpayer subsidies.

Roles & Responsibilities:

Maintain a custom, Yocto-based, Linux distribution, supporting multiple custom computer platforms, both with and without displays.
Board bring up of NVIDIA Tegra and NXP i.MX based compute platforms.
Linux kernel driver development for NVIDIA Tegra and NXP i.MX platforms.
Linux kernel support for full network, audio, and visual hardware.
Contribute to and select patches from various upstream, open-source projects.
Test custom board features in CI & HIL environments.
Long term support of Yocto linux distributions and Linux kernel for deployed products.

Knowledge, Skills and Abilities:

Strong knowledge of Linux kernel development.
In-depth knowledge of build systems like Yocto and Buildroot
Experience submitting and getting patches accepted by open source projects.
Advanced knowledge of C/C++ programming and shell scripting; other languages and skills are also valuable.
Experience developing on resource-constrained embedded hardware.
