Experience with Python
Good VB.NET or VC# experience for designing UI/UX simulator tools
Hands on development experience with either of the communication protocols like CAN, RS232, RS422, RS485, SPI, I2C, Timers, EEPROM and Flash Driver interfaces
Experience with source version control systems (Git, Subversion, Atlassian tools)
Experience with multi‑threaded application and real time debugging experience with advanced tools like emulators, logic serial analyzers, remote debugging, scopes, serial line analyzer, JTAG/BDM and CANalyzer
Must be able to travel up to 25% domestically and internationally
Preferred Skills:
Experience on ColdFire and ARM 32‑bit microcontrollers
Experience with defect tracking software such as JIRA, Bugzilla
Able to understand hardware design and schematics, including electrical 1‑line and 3‑line at high level
Able to work in elevator hoist ways and machine rooms as needed
