Who we are looking for
- A creative problem solver who can use engineering fundamentals to connect scientific theory with engineering design to create novel software solutions. While we value experience with specific tools (like C/C++, RTOS, or Linux), we care more about your ability to architect scalable systems and solve the 'impossible' problems that don't have a manual.
- A strong communicator who can describe technical solutions to colleagues and clients.
- A hands-on firmware engineer who likes to build breadboards, use software to debug hardware, and bring electromechanical systems to life.
