Engineering

The charter for this section is 3 fold

  1. Tools - Apart from Code, several elements go into implementing a design. This section will shed light on the supporting ecosystem, such as, build tools (Makefile, C and Python scripts); regression frameworks; tools for diagramming, and a lot more.
  2. Culture - Discuss the behavioral side of Engineering. How do you buid a Hardware team? How to effectively analyze or post-mortem a project so that you can improve on the next. How do you prevent burn-out?
  3. Art - Bring out the art behind Hardware Engineering so that we can all take a step back from our daily work and tasklists, and appreciate what we've collectively built. And also offer a view into our world for those outside this discipline.
