- Developed a custom initramfs-based installation script to automate the creation and encryption of all filesystem partitions, including rootfs, on Intel-based embedded blades. Implemented secure TPM-integrated decryption logic to seamlessly unlock encrypted partitions during boot.
- Developed a software backplane daemon to manage TCP-based communication with embedded blades, handling time synchronization requests and storing the software version metadata of each connected client for centralized tracking and diagnostics
- Built a lightweight custom Docker container using the Yocto toolchain for Intel-based embedded platforms, deploying a C++ application inside the container to handle software update processing for connected blades in a secure, containerized environment
- Designed and developed a C++ application integrated with backplane software to manage and control multiple blades. Leveraged CMake for flexible cross-compilation and utilized Yocto BitBake recipes to automate the build and deployment process across various blade targets, ensuring consistency and scalability.
- Designed and implemented a gRPC server daemon in C++ using Protocol Buffers (Protobuf) to manage server-side operations for QAM blade configuration. Enabled remote setup of frequencies, services, and service content via structured and efficient RPC communication.
- Developed a custom Board Support Package (BSP) using Yocto, including kernel, bootloader (GRUB), initramfs, and device tree customization; implemented Linux startup scripts and systemd service files for tailored board initialization and service management.
