This is a hands-on, cross-functional role with global collaboration at its core.

To succeed in this role, you'll also need:

  • Diploma or Degree in Electronics Engineering (or related field), with 10+ years' experience in embedded firmware and hardware development
  • Strong proficiency in C/C++, Go, embedded Linux, Docker, and IoT systems
  • Hands-on experience with hardware-in-the-loop testing, validation, and full product lifecycle support
  • Ability to navigate complex priorities, collaborate across onshore/offshore teams, and drive effective knowledge transfer
  • Advantageous: Ability to interpret and translate Slovakian technical documentation into clear, accurate English
