• Industry experience with communication technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or PLC.
• OpenEmbedded and/or Yocto.
• Familiarity with automated testing tools and debugging methodologies.
• Experience working with Board Support Packages and Hardware bring-up. 
• Interest in the energy sector or distributed IoT systems.
• Experience working in cross-functional teams.

You should be: 

• Happy working in a fast-moving team in which your initiative and contributions have a big impact. 
• Motivated and enthusiastic, open to learn new things and face problems that have not been solved before.
