Experience: 0–2 years
We are seeking a technically inclined and curious Embedded Hardware Engineer to join our IoT hardware design team. The role focuses on developing reliable, low-power embedded systems built around ARM and RISC‑V microcontroller platforms. You will contribute to circuit design, PCB development, and validation, while also participating in product quality improvement through structured Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and data-driven design enhancements.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and develop hardware circuits for microcontroller-based IoT products.
- Create and maintain schematics, libraries, and PCB layouts using Altium Designer.
- Integrate and interface sensors, power management circuits, communication modules (BLE/Wi‑Fi), and external peripherals.
- Assist in hardware bring-up, validation, and debugging during prototyping and production stages.
- Conduct electrical testing and verification—signal integrity checks, power measurements, and EMI/EMC performance observation.
- Participate in Root Cause Analysis (RCA) of field or production failures; identify component, layout, or process-level issues.
- Implement design actions and validation procedures derived from RCA to enhance product robustness and quality.
- Maintain design documentation, revision control, and test records for audit and traceability purposes.
Required Skills and Qualifications
- B.E./B.Tech in Electronics or Electrical Engineering (or related field).
- Solid understanding of analog and digital circuit fundamentals, microcontroller interfaces, and power systems.
- Familiar with ARM or RISC‑V MCU architectures and low-power hardware design techniques.
- Working knowledge of BLE/Wi‑Fi hardware integration and antenna layout considerations.
- Proficiency in Altium Designer for schematic capture and PCB design.
- Comfortable using lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, and logic analysers for hardware debugging.
Preferred / Nice-to-Have Skills
- Exposure to battery management circuits, sensor integration, or power optimisation in embedded systems.
- Familiarity with C-based firmware for hardware validation and diagnosis.
- Understanding of EMI/EMC considerations, signal routing, and thermal design.
- Interest in functional testing, prototype validation, and reliability checks for IoT hardware.
- Candidates with prior experience in PCB layout engineering (Altium Designer), looking to transition into full hardware design roles are strongly encouraged to apply.
