　　Define tasks and create work breakdown including estimation of tasks.

　　Ability to prioritize requests and communicate priorities.

　　Develop and test software of major scale and complexity to agreed timescales.

　　Maintain firmware software components including defect investigation.

　　Conduct software peer reviews.

　　Create relevant documentation following the department’s processes.

　　Track hardware changes and understand impact on firmware.

　　Design firmware components that require to be enhanced and adapted to existing design.

　　Deliver high-quality firmware in line with the department’s processes.

　　Contribute to continuous development of the department’s processes.

　　Person Specification:

　　Required:

　　Desired:
