• Solid understanding of real-time systems, interrupts, scheduling, and timing analysis
• Experience debugging hardware-software interactions (oscilloscope, logic analyzer, JTAG/SWD, schematics)
• Familiarity with common interfaces (I2C, SPI, UART, USB, Ethernet, etc.)
• Experience with modern firmware practices (CI/CD, testing, secure boot, OTA, coding standards)

Considered a Plus

• HDMI, DisplayPort or USB-C expertise
