The Opportunity

We’re seeking a skilled Junior Embedded Support Engineer to advance their career in embedded software for IoT devices within our RaptorOS fleet management platform. You’ll develop and support robust MicroPython code running on a MCU platform to ensure reliable functionality and connectivity in challenging mining settings. Collaborating with hardware and software teams, you’ll contribute to mission-critical systems that enhance safety and efficiency in global mining operations.

Key Responsibilities

Troubleshoot, debug, and maintain existing MicroPython/Python applications on IoT hardware (sensors, communications).

Identify and fix issues in control logic to ensure reliable operation.

Support network connectivity (WiFi, LTE, Bluetooth) and protocols (e.g., MQTT) through diagnostics and configuration fixes.

Implement and improve error-handling routines and basic diagnostic tools for system stability.

Assist with serial interface integration (e.g., UART, CAN) by testing and resolving hardware-software interaction problems, in collaboration with hardware teams.

Perform device-level operations and firmware updates via SSH on Unix-based edge gateways (e.g., Raspberry Pi, custom Linux boards).

Update and maintain clear technical documentation

About You

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).

Hands-on experience supporting embedded software, ideally with MicroPython or Python-based IoT devices.

Working knowledge of MicroPython, basic embedded networking, and serial interfaces (e.g., UART, CAN).

Familiarity with state machines, Git/GitHub, and simple testing practices.

Comfortable using SSH and Unix-based terminals (navigation, scripting, log analysis, process management).

Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, especially for hardware-software integration issues.

Why Join Us?

Competitive Package & Perks: Attractive salary and free lunches on select days.

Career Growth: Work on innovative embedded systems with opportunities for leadership roles.
