Embedded software development: challenges and opportunities coexist!

The entry threshold of embedded software development field is very high, which requires a deep understanding of the underlying hardware and software principles, so IT is difficult for non-professional IT personnel to cut into this field. However, the advantages of embedded software development are also obvious. This paper will discuss the advantages and challenges of embedded software development in depth to help readers better understand this field.

High social status

Because of the high entry threshold in the field of embedded software development, talents who master these new technologies are very scarce. This makes the value of embedded developers rise, and the more experienced they are, the higher their treatment will naturally be.

The working intensity is relatively low.

Compared with the traditional enterprise application software development, the work intensity of embedded software development is relatively small. In the field of embedded development, companies usually have their own product plans and act at their own pace, avoiding the situation of being exhausted in the development of enterprise application software.

There are many entrepreneurial opportunities.

Due to the high technical threshold in the field of embedded software development, there are relatively many entrepreneurial opportunities. You can use your technological advantages and innovative ability to develop products with market competitiveness.

High starting point entry

The development of embedded software involves great technical difficulty, which requires a certain software and hardware foundation and operating system-level software foundation. For beginners, it takes a lot of learning cost and time.

Small number of enterprises

Compared with enterprises engaged in enterprise computing software, there are fewer enterprises engaged in embedded software development. This makes embedded developers face certain challenges when looking for a job.

High academic requirements

Although most companies do not require high academic qualifications for embedded developers, some companies still require a master's degree or above. This makes some embedded developers with low academic qualifications but practical experience face certain employment pressure.
