Designing analogue and digital electronics, including PCB layout
Bringing up new hardware and debugging at board level using embedded software
Developing embedded C code to support hardware validation and functionality
Working across the full product lifecycle, from concept through to production
Contributing to a range of projects, including next-generation embedded and IoT-style systemsWhat they're looking for:

A well-rounded electronics engineer with solid embedded software skills
Strong experience in analogue and digital design
Confidence with board bring-up and debugging using embedded C
Experience with common interfaces such as SPI, I²C, UART, CAN
