Systems software developers are involved with research, design, development and test operations of systems-level software, compilers, and network distribution. They create the systems that keep computers functioning properly. These could be operating systems for computers that the general public buys or systems built specifically for an organization. Often, systems software developers build the system’s interface, which is what allows users to interact with the computer. Systems software developers create the operating systems that control most of the consumer electronics in use today, including the systems in phones or cars. They sometimes design embedded systems software, applying principles and techniques of computer science, engineering and mathematical analysis.
