Intel Hiring Two More Experienced Linux Kernel Engineers
While there have been a number of Intel Linux engineers laid off over roughly the past year, other Linux kernel engineers opting to pursue employment opportunities elsewhere amid the ongoing challenges and restructuring at the company, and shifts in their open-source strategy, there's some good news as we work toward the 2025 holidays. Intel is currently hiring for two more experienced Linux kernel software engineers.
Kristen Accardi as Intel's Director of Upstream Linux Kernel Engineering at the company recently announced she is hiring for two more experienced Linux kernel engineers. Writing recently on LinkedIn:
Position 1 is for a Linux kernel engineer working to drive Intel-optimized system software for the Linux ecosystem. The senior-level position will be working on Intel drivers and low-level system software, without going deeper into the specifics. The Oregon position will have a salary range from $196~277k USD.
Position 2 is another Linux kernel engineer working on various OS internals to work on unnamed Intel device drivers and Linux kernel optimizations for specific hardware platforms. This position has a salary range of $146~206k USD.
Good seeing Intel hiring more Linux kernel engineers amid their setbacks in staff they have seen over the past year. Here's to hoping they are able to ramp up more of their Linux and open-source efforts in 2026.
