Foundational programming and problem-solving skills in C or C++, with coursework or personal project experience in data structures, algorithms, and memory management.
Understanding of core computer science fundamentals, including operating systems concepts (processes, threads, concurrency) and basic networking principles (TCP/IP stack, Ethernet, routing/switching).
Familiarity with standard software development workflows in Linux environments and Git version control.

Preferred Qualifications

Hands-on academic or project experience with Embedded Linux, POSIX system calls, device drivers, or microcontroller programming.
Familiarity with networking protocols (such as BGP, OSPF, VLANs, or packet capture tools like Wireshark/tcpdump).
Experience scripting in Python or Bash for test automation, build systems, or CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions).
Exposure to hardware/software co-design, FPGA fundamentals, or low-level debugging using GDB and JTAG.
Strong analytical troubleshooting skills, eager technical curiosity, and an ability to collaborate effectively in an agile engineering team.
