I'm an embedded qa engineer, but electronic engineer by education and most of my experience. The hardest part of my job is creating tests which take into account hardware that our software runs on and the level of unpredictability that comes with realworld hardware. Cloud services are one thing, with virtually limitless resources and scalability, real embedded computers you can hold in the palm of your hand don't behave like that, level of abstraction is much lower.

Wow I cant imagine having to write tests for hardware, thats impressive!
