Embedded Systems School

Who this is for

Embedded teams shipping hardware-software products who need agile development practices that work when “fail fast” is not an option – safety-critical systems, real-time constraints, multi-disciplinary teams.

What you'll be able to do

  • Ship safety-critical embedded software with the agile cadence your product actually needs.
  • Make hardware-software development traceable and audit-ready – ISO 26262 AND the freedom to iterate, not one or the other.
  • Hit real-time deadlines with practices designed for systems where microseconds matter.
  • Bridge hardware, software, and systems teams with communication patterns that hold up under release pressure.

Courses in this school

Embedded Agile & Scrum

Agile, Scrum, SAFe, and product-management practices, rewritten for hardware-software teams. From one-day “kickstart your transformation” workshops up to multi-day DASA and SAFe certifications.

Why Embedded Teams Need Specialized Training

You can't 'fail fast' when your product controls a vehicle's braking system. We teach agile that works when hardware meets software.

Real Hardware, Real Problems

Work with actual development boards and hardware-in-the-loop setups, not theoretical software-only examples

Safety-First Agility

Create traceable, auditable processes that satisfy both ISO 26262 regulators and your need for speed

Real-Time Reality

Master practices designed for systems where missing deadlines by microseconds means failure

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Bridge hardware, software, and systems teams with communication patterns that actually work

About this school

The Embedded Systems school exists because the standard agile playbook breaks down where hardware enters the picture. “Fail fast” is fine for a web app; it’s a non-starter for a brake controller. Standups are useful, but they don’t fix the fact that your hardware engineer can only get bench time twice a week. The school’s job is to teach agile, DevOps, and engineering leadership practices that survive these constraints, instead of pretending the constraints aren’t there.

The largest cluster of courses is embedded-agile: agile, Scrum, SAFe, and product-management practices rewritten for hardware-software teams. We don’t translate cloud-native agile into embedded by hand-waving – we work through the specific frictions (hardware procurement cycles, multi-disciplinary teams, regulated domains) and the patterns that handle them. This includes the DASA DevOps and SAFe certification tracks adapted for embedded contexts.

The engineering practices track is the daily-tool layer: test-driven development for embedded, architecture for resource-constrained systems, embedded testing fundamentals, RTOS introduction. It also houses the AI-augmented development workshop for embedded firmware – the bridge to the Embedded AI school for teams whose engineers want to use modern coding assistants on driver-level work.

The DevOps and version control track addresses the part that gets hardest in embedded: continuous integration when hardware is in the loop, observability for embedded systems in production, and version control practices that work across hardware design files and firmware code.
