You cannot redeploy a device on a roof

Once hardware is in the field, every mistake costs a van and a technician.

No update path

Firmware that can only be changed by hand, so a fix means visiting every installation.

Assumes a good network

Software written for the workshop and deployed where connectivity drops for hours.

Security added at the end

Devices shipped with shared credentials and open ports, which become somebody else's botnet.

We screen embedded engineers on hardware that shipped and on what happened afterwards. Failures in the field, power behaviour, memory limits and the update mechanism are what separate product engineers from prototype builders.

Over the air updates, offline behaviour and device identity are designed before the first unit leaves, because they cannot be retrofitted cheaply. Our screening asks candidates to describe their update strategy before anything else.

Heat matters here. Devices deployed in the Gulf run in conditions that a temperate specification does not describe, and engineers who have worked with hardware in this climate ask about enclosure and thermal behaviour without being prompted.

How it works

A clear process from brief to launch, with your approval at every stage.

Tell us the gap

One call about the work, the stack and the deadline. You get a written shortlist, not a stack of unfiltered profiles.

01
Meet two or three

You interview a short list we have already tested ourselves, and you set the technical exercise if you want one.

02
Start, with cover

The engineer starts inside your tools and your process, and we replace anyone who is not right without an argument.

03
Technology

Tools we build with

Proven platforms your team can run after launch.

The benefits of working with us

Why Dubai companies choose Codeeo for Iot and embedded engineers

  • Tested before you meet them

    Every engineer is screened by our own developers on real work, not on a keyword match against a CV.

  • Working hours that overlap yours

    Teams that sit in the Gulf working day, so review, standup and escalation happen inside your hours.

  • Your code, your accounts

    Repositories, cloud accounts and credentials stay yours. Engineers work inside them and leave nothing behind.

  • One invoice, no visa admin

    We carry the employment, the visas and the payroll, so you add and remove capacity without an HR project.

Questions founders ask us

Do they have experience with devices in the field?

That is what we screen for. Prototype experience and product experience are different, and only one of them survives a summer on a roof.

Can they design the update mechanism?

Yes, and we insist on it early. Devices without an update path become expensive very quickly.

Do they cover the cloud side as well?

Usually with a second engineer. Device firmware and platform engineering are different skills.

What about device security?

Identity, credentials and update signing are part of the design rather than an afterthought.

Can they work with our hardware supplier?

Yes, and that coordination is a normal part of this work.
