About the job Build the Linux distribution foundation that turns upstream software into trusted Graphcore platform releases. You will help create the Linux distribution that powers Graphcore AI systems. The team produces production-ready system images from proven upstream distributions. Your work will shape how releases are built, validated and prepared for deployment. You will strengthen the engineering path from upstream Linux software to dependable platform releases. You will build and improve automated pipelines, run established Linux test suites, and diagnose issues across build and validation flows. As the platform evolves, you will introduce controlled configuration and tuning changes with evidence-led validation. This is hands-on systems engineering with visible impact.
