CTO OF AN IOT STARTUP
You have to build a connected object, but you don’t know exactly how yet. Then you want to
sell it, but you are not exactly sure who will buy it, why, for what price and what will be their
favorite color.

PURPOSE
OS is running on hardware. You are also responsible for this. Have you ever made a PCB?
Sorry, most of the time Arduino & Raspberry pi is not the solution.

PURPOSE
Now, you have to put everything in a box. In a nice box. With a lot of constraints. It is easy to
design, hard to design for manufacturing.
Sorry, 3D printing is not the solution.

By the way, you also have to manage the assembly, shipping, quality tests, customer
service.
On a human level, you also manage developers, partners, customers.
