  • Hardware Fluency: Deep experience with real-time operating systems (RTOS), motor control logic, sensors, and motion synchronization.

  • Modern Toolset: Practical command of version control (Git), modern IDEs, and CI/CD pipelines to ensure continuous delivery.

  • Technical Leadership: Demonstrated ability to manage small-scale projects and a genuine passion for developing the talents of others.

  • Bonus Assets: Familiarity with industrial protocols, machine vision, web stacks (Node.js/Angular), containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), or database management.
