ABOUT NOVUS HI-TECH
Novus Hi-Tech Robotic Systemz Pvt. Ltd. designs and delivers advanced driver-assistance, robotics, and connected-device solutions across four business units: ADAS, ADAS Aftermarket, Mobile Robotics, and Defence Robotics. The ADAS business builds embedded firmware and sensor-fusion software that runs directly on automotive-grade hardware powering Electronic Control Units (ECUs) that support perception, driver-assistance, and safety functions across vehicle platforms.
ROLE SUMMARY
We're looking for an Embedded Firmware Engineer to join our ADAS team, writing and testing C/C++ firmware that runs directly on automotive-grade ECUs. This is a hands-on individual-contributor role for an engineer who enjoys working close to the hardware debugging at the driver level, working with sensor data, and helping build reliable, safety-critical software. You'll work closely with senior engineers and Engineering Manager, contributing to sensor-fusion and perception modules while growing your expertise in AUTOSAR, RTOS, and automotive-grade development practices.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design, develop, and test embedded firmware in C/C++ for ADAS-related Electronic Control Units (ECUs).
- Contribute to sensor-fusion and perception software modules, working with data from radar, camera, LiDAR, or ultrasonic sensors.
- Write and maintain firmware aligned with AUTOSAR architecture and automotive coding standards.
- Debug and resolve low-level issues involving RTOS, device drivers, and communication protocols (CAN, LIN, Ethernet, SPI, and I2C).
- Participate in code reviews, unit testing, static analysis, and CI/CD practices to maintain firmware quality.
- Support integration and validation activities with hardware, systems, and testing teams.
- Follow MISRA C/C++ coding guidelines and contribute to functional-safety-compliant (ISO 26262) development practices.
- Document design decisions, test results, and known issues clearly for the wider engineering team.
- Collaborate with senior engineers and managers on sprint planning, estimates, and technical trade-offs.
REQUIRED SKILLS & EXPERIENCE
- 2–3 years of hands-on embedded software development experience.
- Strong programming skills in C/C++ for embedded, real-time systems; experience on radar application development is preferred.
- Working knowledge of microcontroller/SoC-based firmware development for automotive or similarly safety-critical domains.
- Understanding of RTOS concepts and real-time system design.
- Exposure to automotive communication protocols such as CAN, LIN, SPI, or I2C.
- Familiarity with embedded debugging tools such as JTAG, emulators, and oscilloscopes/logic analyzers.
- Basic understanding of AUTOSAR concepts and MISRA C/C++ coding practices is a plus.
- Good analytical and debugging skills, with attention to detail in safety-critical code.
- Ability to work collaboratively in a cross-functional engineering environment.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Prior experience with radar, camera, or other ADAS sensor applications.
- Exposure to functional safety standards (ISO 26262) or automotive cybersecurity practices (ISO 21434).
- Familiarity with version control (Git), CI/CD pipelines, and static analysis tools.
- Coursework or project experience involving sensor fusion, signal processing, or embedded Linux.
