Is Hardware Engineering Dead In Nigeria? by Melbrom(m): 11:06pm On Nov 13, 2022
I noticed on nairaland programming sections, people hardly talking about hardware programming with C and embedded systems. Ain't people interested in this area?

Here's filled with web devs noobs, cs f*gs, wannabe hackers ,data gays and failed Yahoo c*nts nowadays

Back in the days , you'll see ee, ce , embedded guys posting meaningful stuffs

Most of them now work for b
I'm into embedded systems and game programming

Looking to get a Arduino very soon

Just got laid off from a retarded company in the UK because I toasted the HR lady

Why would you toast the HR lady though? That's a red flag in every developed country.

LMAO you a funny man. I'm interested in getting into embedded systems but ain't seeing people to put me through and give me motivation. Everybody is into web, data science and others as you said. You live in the UK?

Embedded is scarce yeah, but Interswitch employs embedded devs for their POS but it's with C and Lua. The last Embedded I did was Vibrobox Arduino for school project. You should join the Intwrswitch slack community and reach out.

Lol seriously, see I don't joke with foreign ladies, the fear of EOCC is the beginning of wisdom, saw a colleague get sacked for asking a lady why she's single. It's an American company and that's considered harassment.

Not really a booming industry in naija, but you could google the likes of Victor shoaga and see what embedded machines they are into.

There are few nigerians in embedded systems or system programming because it's tedious and boring to the average Nigerian

No I live on the east coast of naija used to work remotely

Good-day sir, how do I join the interswitch slack community? I am also interested in embedded systems. We did it as a compulsory course and even did a project on it this semester.

They're a lot nowadays than onsite jobs that deals with hardware

The remote one just deals with software entirely

No job for embedded programmer that's the major issue.
Spent good time of my life doing that in Nigeria here.

There are jobs but not in Nigeria

On LinkedIn I keep seeing lot of vacancy from companies interested in embedded systems but very few people apply

oga slow your roll, I have been an embedded programmer for some years now, started with Arduino, moved over to atmel atmega and pic microcontroller. The reason you don't get a lot of posts on it is that there really is no market for it in Nigeria, how many companies build hardware? Except u are out of the country.
P
S y u come go dey toast hr lady na, babes nor dey outside work?

I'll be sending you a mail, I'll like to know what kind of embedded job you do remotely Biko.
Re: Is Hardware Engineering Dead In Nigeria? by davien(m): 12:03am On Nov 25, 2022
It's weird you're looking for an embedded programmer because correct me if I'm wrong but aren't you supposed to be as close to the hardware as possible for those jobs?

Even the ones you can do remote you have to be nearby in case of certain edge cases.

They'll most likely be overseas as such a skill would be drastically underpaid here.
