• Contribute to a team culture of mentorship, shared ownership, and mutual support.

Requirements

• Strong experience writing Go (Golang), especially in embedded or systems-level contexts.
• Skilled in C or C++, with experience building GUIs for embedded Linux.
• Deep understanding of embedded Linux environments, including boot systems, system, and resource constraints.
• Familiarity with device I/O protocols (I2C, SPI, serial), network protocols (gRPC, MQTT, HTTP), and IPC mechanisms.
• Practical experience building testable systems and working within a test-first development mindset.
• Experience with CI/CD, version control (Git), and modern development workflows.
• Passionate about Test-Driven Design and building systems that are easy to test, maintain, and extend.
• Brings a critical thinking mindset—questions assumptions and designs with a purpose.
• Willing to collaborate actively with team members, participate in reviews, and share technical insights.
• Values clean architecture, documentation, and modular codebases.
• Shows an all-around willingness to help—whether it is pairing on debugging, onboarding a teammate, or refining documentation.
• Experience with secure boot, firmware updates, and OTA infrastructure.
• Containerized workflows on embedded platforms (e.g., Docker on ARM).
• CI/CD Pipeline testing experience configuration using yaml.
• Prior work with RS485 Serial communications or other similar protocol stacks.
• Exposure to UI toolkits like Qt, LVGL, or GTK on constrained systems.
• Open-source contributions or portfolio IoT projects.
