IoT connectivity modules and antennas for cellular, GNSS, and WiFi/BT applications
Quectel manufactures cellular, GNSS, and WiFi/BT modules for IoT and M2M devices, with a stack rooted in embedded systems (C/C++, FreeRTOS, RTOS) and infrastructure tooling (Salesforce, SAP, MQTT). Sales hiring is outpacing engineering 1.2x—a pattern consistent with market-expansion focus—while active projects center on GTM strategy, sales training, and new product launches.
