Worked on the rdkcentral/meta-application-rdke-dev repository to enhance embedded Linux systems by enabling Thunder UI external network communication by default, achieved through a persistent WPEFramework binding patch applied via BitBake build system modifications. Addressed a high-impact bug affecting Amazon Prime app launches by ensuring the amazon user had appropriate DMA heap device node access, resolving a black screen issue and improving reliability for embedded deployments. Utilized skills in build systems, embedded systems, and system administration, with changes validated through full system builds and playback verification. Work demonstrated a methodical approach to both feature enablement and stability improvements using Python and BitBake.

Feb 1, 2026February 2026: Stability improvement for the Amazon Prime app launcher on the rdkcentral meta layer. Key fix: resolved a black screen on launch by ensuring the amazon user has access to DMA heap dev node resources via inclusion in the video group. Implemented and validated with a full build and Prime playback verification on Kernel 6.12.38. Scope included the rdkcentral/meta-application-rdke-dev repository. Impact: eliminates a high-visibility launch failure, enabling consistent Prime app usage in embedded deployments. Commit reference involved: db99abc7978ccafa9053034b352416faa5ea6beb.
