 * HIL - Hardware in the loop testing, debugging, and validation.
 * Contribute to architecture concepts, navigation tasks, and development projects as part of a cross-functional engineering team.
 * Identifying opportunities for software efficiency improvements through code re-use across a varied range of products and projects.
 * Partnering with other members across the engineering department to enable the fusion of hardware and software; adding value to the customer.
