· Embedded systems expertise spanning hardware, software, and system architecture.

· Strong software background with modern development, integration, and debugging experience.

· Strategic thinker who converts ambiguity into clear direction and execution.

· Exceptional critical thinker with strong judgment and problem-solving skills.

· Customer-obsessed leader with experience managing complex technical engagements and escalations.

· Influential stakeholder manager able to align engineering, product, sales, and executive leadership.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
