Job Summary

This role serves as the critical technical bridge between product architects and the development team, translating high-level product visions into concrete technical solutions. As a Technical Team Lead, you will drive architecture decisions—evaluating platforms like Zephyr and Linux—while managing effort estimations and system modernization strategies. Day-to-day, you will balance hands-on firmware development using C, CMake, and Yocto with technical leadership duties such as conducting code reviews and mentoring junior developers. You will oversee the full lifecycle of IoT products, from low-level hardware integration (I²C, SPI) to cloud connectivity (MQTT, TLS). This position is ideal for an expert who enjoys both deep technical work and cross-functional coordination. The role offers a high degree of flexibility through hybrid work models and the opportunity to work on high-precision measurement technology that contributes to environmental and health protection within a globally recognized company.
