 * Design and optimize embedded software for microcontroller-based systems with a focus on reliability and performance
 * Develop and refine open- and closed-loop control systems for haptic and pneumatic actuation
 * Build deep expertise in our SMA-based hardware and continuously improve system behavior
 * Implement real-time sensor processing to enable interactive, user-facing experiences
