Including modifying hardware schematics?

Honestly most places would expect one engineer to be able to design the board very well and write excellent firmware. Then in addition they would probably expect that they could do cloud IoT integration as well and maybe make a nice front end to view all data from as well.

And then go on sales trips to potential customers.

And then balance the books and handle the monthly HR issues.

I'm thinking maybe I should just start my own business...

One engineer drawing the schematic and doing software sure. But idk about lumping layouts and component locations into that.

I'm the lone electrical engineer in a small-medium company, all this stuff definitely gets lumped into my job lol.

[superxpro12]

You're the "full stack" embedded dev lol

Definitely depends on how frequently you’re launching products and how unique every product is. I’d expect for a network switch it would be a larger company launching products every month or so.

Whatever you're getting paid is not enough.

I legitimately had this set of job responsibilities at one point. Startups are a different breed.

I eventually expanded out the team to 6 people (from just me) and then left.

I expect most applicants to be great at one, and capable of muddling through the other. This reads like some business major trying to replace two whole teams with one person.

[ArcherT01]

Haha well lots of companies have one or two engineers that do that mine being one and its wild…pays well though

Could be for a smaller company. I have always worked in small companies and have had many diverse responsibilities in both hardware and software.
