They help them by creating game-changing (wireless) connected products and platforms that are deployed at scale to improve and enrich lives. Most of the team are based here in NZ – between the mighty Waikato and a small but growing footprint in Auckland.

Our customer is proudly Kiwi but have been global since day one, with mostly international customers in Europe and North America – and range from exciting start-ups to blue chips (including Qualcomm, Samsung, Trimble and Toyota).

We are looking for someone to join our team of subject matter experts on Bluetooth. You’ll be working on diverse range of projects for our clients worldwide.

Some of the benefits for the role:

Excellent base remuneration
Value-added staff benefits including life/trauma and health/medical insurance
Ongoing professional development opportunities
Flexible working arrangements

Skills and experience

In order to be successful in this role, we’ll expect you to have proven experience as a leader or senior contributor in the development of Bluetooth-based systems. You may have:

Been in the thick of designing and implementing Bluetooth or BLE link layer protocols and schedulers.
Developed non-trivial Bluetooth/BLE applications on silicon from a wide range of market-leading transceivers from vendors such as Qualcomm, Cypress/Infineon, Nordic Semiconductor, Dialog or others.
Built a deep understanding of the relevant protocols through participation in standardisation efforts, or through a long history of developing/debugging these solutions at the lowest level.
Demostrable real-world experience of the vagaries of Bluetooth interoperability – especially across modern smartphone platforms.

You’ll be an expert C programmer with strong attention to detail, and a knack for producing tidy, efficient code. You’ll be great at documentation – both visual and written, and will have excellent written and verbal technical communication skills in English.

You’ll be able to talk to customers, and bridge between the world of technical detail, and that of commercial outcomes.

We can shape the other aspects of the role to suit the strengths and preferences of a great applicant, so please tell us why and how you’re going to contribute to our team!

Our recruiter Jose Delgado is a former electrical engineer with experience in research and development within different areas – he’s happy to provide support for relevant questions that may arise about the role and the company.
