  • Experience with test-driven development using unit testing, software in the loop, or hardware in the loop methodologies. Our developers participate significantly in firmware testing, so a validation mindset is required.
  • Familiarity with electrical test tools like scopes, meters, and power supplies.
  • Desired to have experience developing time-critical code using ADC, PWM for power controls, and battery management.
  • Desired to have experience in the development of embedded software compliant with formal safety certification processes such as UL1998 or similar.
  • Desired to have Python experience for supporting tools and data analysis.
  • Familiarity with a Unix environment.
  • Proficient in standard source control tools like Git.
  • Remain engaged, proactive, and positive when taking on challenging tasks, owning assignments, and taking accountability for personal and overall team success.
