We are seeking a highly skilled Embedded Engineer with strong experience in PCB design to join our engineering team. The ideal candidate will be responsible for developing embedded systems, designing and testing hardware circuits, creating PCB layouts, and ensuring reliable integration between hardware and firmware components.

Key ResponsibilitiesEmbedded Systems Development

• Design, develop, and test embedded software/firmware for microcontrollers, microprocessors, and SoCs.
• Write efficient, well-structured, and well-documented code in languages such as C, C++, and Python.
• Integrate sensors, communication modules, and peripherals (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, USB, BLE, Wi-Fi, etc.)
• Debug and optimize firmware for performance, power consumption, and reliability.
• Conduct system-level testing, validation, and troubleshooting.

PCB Design & Hardware Development

• Create schematic designs for electronic circuits using tools like Altium, KiCad, OrCAD, or Eagle.
• Develop multi-layer PCB layouts considering signal integrity, EMI/EMC, and manufacturability guidelines.
• Select electronic components based on design requirements, cost, and availability.
• Collaborate with fabrication and assembly vendors to ensure production-quality PCBs.
• Conduct board bring-up, testing, and fault analysis.

Product Development & Collaboration

• Work closely with mechanical, electrical, and software teams to develop end-to-end solutions.
• Participate in design reviews, architecture discussions, and project planning.
• Prepare documentation including schematics, BOM, test procedures, and technical reports.
• Support prototype development, field testing, and product certification.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Embedded Systems, or related field.
• 2–5+ years of experience in embedded system development.
• Strong knowledge of microcontrollers (ARM Cortex, PIC, AVR, ESP32, STM32, etc.)
• Proven experience in PCB schematic design and layout.
• Proficiency with embedded development tools (JTAG, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers).
• Familiarity with real-time operating systems (RTOS), device drivers, and communication protocols.
• Strong problem-solving and debugging skills.
• Ability to read and interpret datasheets, circuit diagrams, and technical documentation.

Preferred Skills (Nice to Have)

• Experience in IoT product design (BLE, Wi-Fi, LoRa, NB-IoT).
• Knowledge of power electronics, SMPS, and battery-based systems.
• Understanding of EMI/EMC compliance and testing.
• Experience with automotive, industrial, or medical embedded systems.
• Familiarity with version control systems (Git) and CI/CD pipelines.
• Knowledge of MATLAB, LabVIEW, or hardware simulation tools.

Soft Skills

• Strong communication and teamwork abilities.
• Detail-oriented with a focus on quality and reliability.
• Ability to manage multiple tasks and meet project deadlines.
• Analytical mindset with a proactive approach to problem-solving.
