• Implement PWM control, ADC/DAC interfacing, and protection logic.

• Ensure safe operation and deterministic response under fault conditions.

Networking & Wireless Integration

• Implement wired communication protocols including TCP/IP, RS485/RS232, and Modbus.

• Contribute to real-time communication implementations where applicable.

• Integrate and troubleshoot wireless technologies such as Zigbee, BLE, LoRa / LoRaWAN, Mesh networking architectures.

• Support OTA firmware updates over wired and wireless channels.

Secure Cloud Connectivity

• Implement device-to-cloud communication using MQTT/TLS or equivalent secure protocols.

• Support telemetry, provisioning, remote diagnostics, and firmware update mechanisms.

Hardware/Firmware Integration & Validation

• Participate in board bring-up, hardware debugging, and system integration.

• Use oscilloscopes, logic analysers, and protocol analysers for root cause analysis.

• Collaborate with hardware and verification teams to execute validation plans.

Compliance & Documentation

• Develop documentation required for UL/ULC/FM/FCC/CE/VDS/LPCB regulatory compliance.

• Maintain traceability of firmware features and changes.

• Support manufacturing release and production testing.
