Strong programming fundamentals with experience in Python, C/C++ or JavaScript
Experience in embedded systems and firmware development.
Comfort working across both software and hardware environments.
Experience with modern web technologies and UI frameworks.
Knowledge of APIs, databases, and cloud platforms.
Familiarity with Git and collaborative development workflows.
A degree in Software Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a related discipline.
