• Provide input to the client’s product strategy in improving performance and adding features, as well as extending into new markets.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• 5+ years of experience in electronic design and testing (startup or product‑focused environment preferred).
• Strong understanding of circuit design, analog/digital systems, and power management.
• Experience with PCB design tools (e.g., Altium or similar).
• Familiarity with embedded systems, microcontrollers, and firmware integration.
• Deep understanding of best engineering processes and best practices with respect to version control, drawing, and bill of material review.
• Solid debugging and troubleshooting skills with oscilloscopes, multimeters, and logic analyzers.
• Excellent communication and documentation abilities.
• Experience in managing or playing a major role in complex engineering projects.
• Experience with wireless communication technologies (Wi‑Fi, BLE, cellular).
• Knowledge of video systems, sensors, or high‑speed data interfaces.
