**Department:**Research & Development (R&D)**Experience:5 - 6 YearsLocation:Bangalore OfficeEmployment Type:**Full-Time
Job Summary
We are seeking an experienced and practical Embedded Hardware Engineer with 5 to 6 years of hands-on experience to join our R&D team in Bangalore. In this role, you will own the hardware lifecycle - from schematic design and PCB layout to component selection, prototyping, and hardware validation. While the primary focus is robust electronic circuit design, you should possess the practical programming skills required to write hardware-test scripts and bring up boards. If you thrive in an agile R&D environment and enjoy taking a product from concept to production-ready reality, we want you on our team.
Key Responsibilities & Duties

• Circuit & PCB Design: Design robust analog, digital, and power-management electronic circuits. Create multi-layer schematics and PCB layouts ensuring high signal/power integrity.
• Component Selection & Evaluation: Evaluate and select off-the-shelf components, microcontrollers, and sensor modules based on performance, cost, and supply chain viability.
• Board Bring-up & Troubleshooting: Assemble prototype boards, perform hardware bring-up, and utilize lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters) to debug and resolve hardware issues.
• Hardware Validation & Testing: Develop basic testing scripts/firmware to validate hardware functionality, peripheral interfaces, and ensure overall system stability before production hand-off.
• Design for Manufacturing (DFM): Ensure designs adhere to standard manufacturing and assembly guidelines (IPC standards) and support compliance preparation (EMI/EMC, CE/FCC).
• Technical Documentation: Maintain clean, detailed documentation including Bill of Materials (BOM), schematics, design specifications, and hardware errata sheets.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Education: Bachelor's degree in Electronics & Communication (ECE), Electrical & Electronics (EEE), or a related technical field.
• Experience: 5 - 6 years of proven experience in embedded hardware development and circuit design.
• EDA Tools: Strong proficiency in PCB design tools such as Eagle CAD, EasyEDA, or Altium Designer.
• Hardware Architectures: Practical experience working with 32-bit microcontrollers (e.g., ARM Cortex, ESP32) and standard peripherals (I2C, SPI, UART, ADC, PWM).
• Testing & Scripting: Solid foundational programming skills in C or Arduino for hardware verification, and familiarity with Python for test automation or data logging is highly desirable.
• Lab Skills: Excellent hands-on SMD soldering, reworking, and prototyping skills.
