• Source code management systems such as Git and Perforce
  
  
• Familiar with automated testing of firmware builds, as well as regression testing
  
  
• Debugging using JTAG interface adapters and testing using oscilloscopes and logic analysers
  
  
• Python
  
  Other advantageous skills include:
  
  
• Development of Windows GUI applications in C#
