• Integrate and control hardware using GPIO, UART/RS232/RS485, SPI, I2C, USB, and Ethernet.
• Integrate RFID readers and industrial peripherals with embedded applications.
• Develop MQTT-based device communication for telemetry, commands, events, and remote configuration.
• Integrate embedded applications with REST APIs and web/backend services.
• Develop background services, device monitoring, diagnostics, logging, and recovery mechanisms.
• Build Python-based automated tests and production tools for device configuration and validation.
• Work with Linux services, systemd, networking, processes, threads, and device interfaces.
• Debug and resolve hardware/software integration issues in development and production.
• Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code and participate in code reviews.

Required Skills

• 4-8 years of software/embedded development experience.
• Strong Python 3 development experience.
• Strong experience with PyQt, PySide, or Qt.

• Experience with Python threading, asyncio, multiprocessing, or event-driven programming.
• Experience with systemd/Linux services and embedded device deployment.
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills.
• Good Git and software development practices.

Good to Have

• ARM64 SBCs such as Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone, or custom boards.
• Yocto or Buildroot.
• Docker on Embedded Linux.
• OTA updates and remote device management.
• WebSockets and cloud IoT platforms.
• Hardware-in-the-loop and production test automation.
• Working knowledge of C/C++ for understanding and debugging low-level components.
