Testing & Validation: Using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and multimeters to debug hardware.
Documentation: Keeping clear records of designs, test results, and component specifications.

Requirements (The "Must-Haves")

Education: A degree (BEng/BSc or MEng) in Electronic Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
Foundational Knowledge: A solid grasp of Ohm’s Law, semiconductor physics, and circuit analysis.
Hand Skills: Ability to handle a soldering iron without burning the desk (or yourself).
Soft Skills: A genuine "can-do" attitude and the ability to explain complex ideas without using too much jargon.
