• Apply software design principles to build modular, reusable, and testable firmware components.
• Utilize version control systems (e.g., Git) and contribute to team‑based development workflows.
• Participate in system‑level and architectural design discussions.
• Support risk‑based decision‑making in embedded software development under IEC 62304.
• Contribute to documentation including functional requirements, software design descriptions, and traceability artifacts.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams such as hardware, test, manufacturing, and support to resolve technical issues.
• Participate in design and code reviews, and provide informal mentorship to junior engineers.
• Assist in maintaining and improving firmware build, test, and release processes.
• Support integration with connected systems (e.g., sensors, cloud modules, IoT components).

• Embedded Firmware Development (C/C++)
• RTOS and Low‑Level Hardware Interaction
• Software Design and Modularization
• Firmware Debugging and Troubleshooting
• Basic Understanding of Software Architecture
• Medical Device Software Lifecycle (IEC 62304)
• Collaboration and Communication
