Implementing and supporting communication protocols such as RS232 and RS485
Collaborating closely with hardware engineers and the wider R&D team to bring products from concept to completion
Contributing ideas on tools, processes and technology choices as the new team takes shape
Supporting testing, debugging and validation through each stage of development

Proven industry experience in an embedded design role
Strong Embedded C programming skills
Experience of bare-metal development
Hands-on experience with ARM, NXP or Atmel microprocessors
A working knowledge of RS232 and RS485 protocols
