PLEASE NOTE: My position is Sr. Electrical Engineer but, I worked on Embedded systems. My time allotted to coding is more than 90-95% and the rest includes talking with Vendors, Suppliers or any place where the team needs technical support. It is a small team and have to wear multiple hats as needed.
