John’s Answer

A Computer Hardware Engineer has a wide variety of choices. One of the new areas of computing is the IOT (Internet of Things), which is just another term for all things can be connected to the internet and create data. This very quickly growing area includes Home electronics gaining intelligent interfaces, like your alarm system, air conditioning, refrigerator, general appliances and home services. All of these have computer hardware that has been engineered for the specific purpose.


A good area to start your budding interests are with small computers that you can build and create new things with like the Rasberry PI or the Arduino computer.

Nithin’s Answer

It completely depends on your interest. We have windows, linux, macOS, and chromeOS. We have a lot of courses available in the market. When I started my career we never had an online class or a youtube. So we used to remove all the hardware parts from the CPU and assemble them back. So that's how I learned. So to become a computer hardware engineer understand the market requirement and find out the most popular hardware running in the market. If you are in India learn more about windows and Mac. A lot of windows courses are available in the market.

AAMIR’s Answer

A good place to start may be areas which are in high demand at the moment. Currently the efforts in the industry behind cloud computing and data analytics are of significant importance. There are many entities requiring actionable use of big data as well as usability via cloud services. The back end hardware requirements to support such technologies (various cloud models like public, private, hybrid as well as data clusters) are constantly improving as well as the need to enable secure and steady services to end user systems.
