What can smart homes bring to us?

Hello, smart home is an integrated multi-functional technology system based on housing. It connects the Internet with various devices at home to achieve intelligence and provide people with various conveniences in life. . At present, major Internet companies are exploring the road of product intelligence, including Xiaomi, Huawei, etc., and have achieved very good results.

1. What is the goal of major Internet companies to connect homes to the Internet?

In smart homes, compared with ordinary homes, the word "smart" is particularly prominent. The convenience brought by its functions is far beyond the reach of ordinary homes. It will create a safer, more convenient, comfortable and energy-saving living environment.

Most of the common products on the market are from mainstream manufacturers such as Huawei, Xiaomi, and Haier, and they are also the leaders of smart homes.

As a representative enterprise of mobile phone manufacturers, Huawei actively promotes a full-scenario smart strategy and builds a smart home ecological platform with strong technical support such as HiLink platform, chips, OS, and artificial intelligence.

But it has to be said that Huawei’s smart home products are far less abundant than Xiaomi’s. The image of Xiao Ai, as we all know it, is the wake-up word for Xiaomi’s first smart speaker. The development of the smart home industry chain is relatively mature. In the 2020 iiMedia Gold List Smart Speaker Brand Ranking, Xiaomi Xiaoai ranked first with a high score of 95.4.

Xiaomi’s industrial chain is indeed very rich, but it is this that leads to the lack of Xiaomi’s core technology, but Huawei has seized this point and is in 5G, chips, systems, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing. , big data and other technologies have significant advantages.

Haier has been in the home appliance industry for many years and has been well received, so Haier understands that the single home appliance market can no longer meet the needs of users. Sub-platforms such as the Internet of Clothing and the Internet of Food, which are generated based on people's daily life scenarios such as food, clothing, housing and transportation, provide customers with the most comprehensive life experience. Haier has become a benchmark for the transformation of the Internet of Things in the home appliance industry.

But whether it is Xiaomi, Huawei, Haier or other Internet companies, if they want to promote home intelligence, they need a lot of technical support. This cannot be achieved by one person or a single team. As an emerging industry, the demand for IT technical talents and their salaries are very high.

2. Huawei smart home engineers

Taking Huawei’s latest recruitment as an example, the salary of big data engineers is 18k-35k, and there is no limit on experience. Referring to other Internet companies such as Tencent, Alibaba, and iQiyi, the experience requirements for big data engineers with salaries of 20k-40k are also 1-3 years, which is not very high.

In this Huawei recruitment, you can see that this position is for 5G commercial scenarios and provides technical support for the monitoring of new generation networks. Similar applications are similar to the real-time traffic function of Amap, which also monitors traffic conditions, analyzes big data of traffic conditions, and finally displays them on the terminal to avoid congestion for users.

According to the "Big Data Talent Report", there are currently only 460,000 big data talents in the country, and the gap in big data talents will be as high as 1.5 million in the next 3-5 years. It is precisely because of the demand for talents and the actual gap that major Internet companies are willing to pay high salaries to attract IT talents such as big data and cloud computing. Judging from the salary offered by Huawei, even big data engineers with 1-3 years are graded at level 14-15. It can be said that big data and cloud computing are still the current bonus positions.
