- Work actively to upstream relevant Ericsson kernel code, in areas such as dynamic CPU isolation, scheduling, networking, and performance optimization

- Work with users of our distribution to improve kernel performance 

- Support the technical staff in the organizations inside Ericsson using our Yocto-based distribution, particularly with kernel-related issues

- Setup and configure board support packages (BSPs)

- Interact with, and potentially contribute to, other FOSS projects, such as U-boot, ATF, GLIBC, etc.

- Testing of our distribution

- Bring up prototype boards and hardware in collaboration with hardware and embedded systems software development teams inside Ericsson.

- Analysis of and correction of kernel crashes
