  • Strong understanding of micro-controller systems, low-power design, sensor integration, and communication protocols (I2C, SPI, UART, BLE).
  • Experience with embedded systems and basic firmware development is preferred.
  • Ability to rapidly prototype and iterate on electronic subsystems.
  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.
  • Knowledge of safety, EMI/EMC, and regulatory standards (FCC, CE, IEC, ISO 60601, etc.) is a strong advantage.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience in client-facing or cross-disciplinary team environments.
  • Prior consulting or agency-based product development experience.
  • Familiarity with medical device development cycles and documentation practices is a plus.
