• Contribute to the full product lifecycle – concept, development, testing, release.

Requirements
• Tertiary qualification in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field (master’s or PhD preferred).
• Strong C/C++ development skills and experience with embedded Linux.
• Hands-on knowledge of bootloaders (e.g. U-Boot), kernel development, and device drivers.
• Experience working with interfaces such as UART, I2C, SPI, GPIO, and Flash memory.
• Understanding of L2/L3 networking protocols (e.g. Ethernet, TCP/IP, MAC/PHY).
• Proactive, independent problem-solver with strong debugging skills.

Desirable (Not Essential)
• Experience with networking protocols such as NAT, VPN, VLAN, STP, IGMP, LLDP, DHCP, QoS.
• Familiarity with routing protocols such as OSPF or BGP.
• Exposure to manufacturing processes and taking products to mass production.
