You'll work closely with Product, Software Engineering, Operations, Procurement, and external manufacturers to build reliable hardware products that perform flawlessly in demanding live-event environments. This is a hands-on role requiring strong technical ownership, practical engineering skills, and the ability to make sound design decisions balancing reliability, cost, manufacturability, and scalability. What you'll do Own the full hardware development lifecycle * Lead the design and development of hardware products from concept through production and post-launch support. * Design electronic solutions using microcontrollers and Single Board Computers (Raspberry Pi, Khadas, or similar). * Build prototypes, validate solutions, and prepare products for mass production. * Continuously improve existing hardware based on operational feedback and customer needs. Design reliable products for production * Design and review electronic architectures, schematics, PCB layouts, and component selection. * Manage Bills of Materials (BOMs), component sourcing, second-source strategies, and obsolescence planning. * Define manufacturing requirements and support industrialization processes. * Collaborate with suppliers and manufacturers throughout production. Ensure product quality * Define validation plans, testing protocols, and acceptance criteria. * Perform hardware debugging using laboratory equipment (oscilloscope, logic analyzer, multimeter, power supplies, etc.). * Diagnose production and field issues, identify root causes, and implement permanent solutions. * Ensure products comply with applicable European regulations (CE, RoHS, EMC, Radio Directives where applicable). Build scalable hardware operations * Plan production capacity according to business needs and event schedules. * Monitor inventories and component availability. * Evaluate suppliers and packaging solutions. * Participate in budgeting and cost optimization decisions. Document and share knowledge * Create technical documentation, manufacturing guides, repair manuals, FAQs, and operational procedures. * Maintain design documentation, firmware versions, BOMs, and change history. * Train junior engineers on production and repair processes. * Act as the technical reference for hardware-related incidents., * Take ownership from concept to production. * Make pragmatic technical decisions balancing quality, cost and delivery. * Feel comfortable working under pressure in business-critical environments. * Communicate technical concepts clearly to both engineering and non-technical teams. * Enjoy collaborating across Hardware, Software, Product, Operations and Procurement. * Are curious, hands-on, and continuously looking for better solutions. Portfolio & project experience As part of the hiring process, candidates will be asked to present at least three relevant hardware projects demonstrating their contribution to products that reached production. For each project, we expect to understand: * The business or user problem being solved. * Your specific role and responsibilities. * Technical architecture and design decisions. * Evidence of your work (schematics, BOMs, test reports, product photos or similar, anonymized if necessary). * Measurable outcomes (production volume, quality improvements, costs, reliability, etc.). During the final stages of the process, we'll also request professional references for at least two of these projects (with your prior consent). ## Related Videos - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Playing Pong on a shoulder press machine](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100140-playing-pong-on-a-shoulder-press-machine) - [More efficient software for more efficient microchips](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1164-more-efficient-software-for-more-efficient-microchips) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) - [Smart, Connected, Unexpected: The Wild Side of IoT and AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1113-smart-connected-unexpected-the-wild-side-of-iot-and-ai) - [Agent Smith Gets Hardware: Autonomous IoT Hacking From Debug Port to Cloud API](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100258-agent-smith-gets-hardware-autonomous-iot-hacking-from-debug-port-to-cloud-api) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers)
