· Organized and a strong analytical thinker
· Upbeat and a hard worker who can communicate ideas effectively
· Excited about the role of hardware in
the continued evolution of how people use the internet
· Loves taking things apart and seeing how they work
· Experienced with some (or ideally all) of the following skill sets:
1. Programming embedded devices in C (bonus points for assembly)
2. Mechanical design (Solidworks preferred)
3. Physical prototyping with hand tools and in the machine shop
4. Circuit design and prototyping
5. Integration, testing and debugging of
mechanical, electrical and software systems
6. Higher level programming including user
interfaces and various communication protocols
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?
· A strongly entrepreneurial, work hard /
play hard environment surrounded by people with a
broad and diverse base of experience
· To learn a lot about the technology
development and commercialization processes for a
widely varied set of applications and industries
· To have a meaningful role in the design
and development of novel technologies and systems
· Not to sit in a cubicle
