Take part in researching, estimating and prioritising features for roadmap
Troubleshoot any issues reported by our customer happiness team

In-depth knowledge on multithreaded programming in RTOS, preferably with FreeRTOS
Confidence with debugging code in an embedded system
Agile approach - CI/CD and fully automated testing of developed modules and systems
Experience with cloud based IoT platforms, OTA updates, pub/sub messaging
Good knowledge of IoT/HW protocols and interfaces, e.g. BT/BLE, RFID/NFC, WiFi; SPI, I2S, I2C, Matter, MQTT
Familiarity with electronics principles & design
Solid understanding of security best practices
What you can expect from Yoto: Salary:
