In the realm of engineering, the development of both software and hardware demands rigorous processes to ensure efficiency, reliability, and maintainability. While they serve distinct purposes, the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and the hardware development lifecycle (HDLC) share striking similarities.

Over the last 6 months, the global semiconductor shortage has been consistently making news for the wave of resulting disruption across the hardware world. From automotive to consumer electronics, virtually every hardware industry has had to scramble to find component replacements ranging from sophisticated ICs to simple microcontrollers.

Because software and hardware are so closely connected, they are starting to cross-pollinate across teams. Hardware engineers are cherry picking what can improve their current processes. Although these principles cannot be simply copied and pasted from SW to HW development, much can be borrowed and adapted. We broke down how to do so in 8 ways.

Between your tech stack and colleagues, working on a project can result in being bombarded with thousands of emails. Imagine a world where people and platforms only notify you of what matters, at the ideal time. Begin with these steps to help convince your manager to give everyone cleaner, calmer inboxes.
