A bit about us:

Our client is a technology-driven organization focused on delivering intelligent hardware and software solutions that protect assets, improve operational visibility, and enhance public safety. Their systems combine embedded electronics, wireless connectivity, cloud platforms, and data intelligence to solve real-world problems at scale.

This company partners with major retailers, municipalities, and enterprise customers across North America. Their solutions are deployed in the field, operating in dynamic, high-traffic environments where reliability, durability, and performance matter.

They are growing and investing heavily in next-generation connected devices that integrate edge computing, video, sensors, and cloud-based analytics.

Why join us?

This is an opportunity to get hands-on embedded experience in a real production environment, not just lab prototypes. You'll work alongside experienced engineers and contribute to products that operate in the field every day.

You'll gain exposure to:

  • Microcontroller-based firmware development
  • Embedded Linux environments
  • Wireless and network-connected devices
  • Hardware bring-up and board-level debugging
  • Full product lifecycle development

This company values mentorship and hands-on learning. You won't be siloed. You'll collaborate directly with hardware engineers, senior firmware engineers, and cross-functional teams while building practical skills that accelerate your growth.

If you want to move beyond theory and build embedded systems that ship, this is a strong entry-level platform.
