#### Description
We are on a mission to disrupt the beverage supply chain and replace single-
use water bottles with smart water machines. Thousands of companies use the
client product to sustainably provide their employees with pure, sparkling,
and flavored water at work. As the market leader in IoT-enabled beverage
machines, we’ve raised over $160M in venture capital and we have grown
tremendously each year since launch. In addition to maintaining hypergrowth
with our current product line.
You would start from our existing Android OS build and help us with defining a
process around making modifications to it for different tablet variants. Help
us with the QA and rollout of these modifications. Examples of modifications
are: device tree modifications, (i2c, GPIO pins, MIPI), applying security
patches and updating configuration parameters of the touch panel.
