Embedded Hardware Engineer

Position: Embedded Hardware Engineer

Experience Level: 5 6 years

Location: Kochi 100 % onsite

Employment Type: Full-time

Role Summary

We're searching for an Embedded Hardware Engineer with strong microcontroller (MCU) design and bring-up expertise to take boards from concept to production. You'll own schematic capture, multilayer PCB layout, MCU selection, firmware-ready bring-up, and validation for our next-generation IoT and industrial-automation products. You'll collaborate closelyon sitewith firmware, mechanical, compliance, and manufacturing teams to ship reliable, cost-optimized boards.

Key Responsibilities

Area

What You'll Do

Microcontroller Design & Bring-Up

Select and integrate MCUs/SoCs (Cortex-M/A, ESP32, STM32, NXP i.MX, PI etc.) Define pin-muxing, boot modes, power sequencing Lead board bring-up and initial firmware flashing via UART/JTAG/SWD

Circuit Design

Convert product requirements into detailed analog, digital, and mixed-signal schematics Component selection for power, signal integrity, thermal, cost, and lifecycle

PCB Layout

Execute 28-layer PCB layouts with controlled-impedance routing and DFM/DFA/DFT best practices

Prototyping & Validation

Generate fabrication/assembly packages and BOMs Oversee on-site/EMS prototype builds Conduct functional, SI, thermal, and environmental tests; iterate for robust MCU performance

Compliance & Certification

Implement EMI/EMC mitigation; drive updates to pass CE/FCC/IEC/UL Support RF certifications when wireless modules are used

Documentation & Release

Maintain complete design artifacts in PLM tools Produce design reviews, test reports, and production release notes

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Work daily with firmware, mechanical, and manufacturing teams to resolve on-site issues quickly and optimize designs

Must-Have Qualifications

• Education: B.E./B.Tech/Diploma in Electronics, Electrical, or related discipline
• Experience: 45 years delivering at least two MCU-based products to mass production
• Technical Skills:
• Deep understanding of MCU/SoC architectures and peripheral integration
• Proficiency with Altium Designer, KiCad, or Cadence Allegro for schematic and PCB layout
• High-speed interface design (DDR, USB 3.x, Gigabit Ethernet), mixed-signal design, and power-supply design
• Skilled with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG/SWD debuggers, spectrum analyzers
• Working knowledge of EMI/EMC compliance workflows
• Grasp of IPC-2221/2222 standards and DFM/DFA practices
• Soft Skills:
• Analytical mindset and ownership attitude
• Clear communication; able to document design decisions and mentor juniors
• Comfortable with fast-moving, iterative development cycles conducted on site

Nice-to-Have

• RF/antenna design (Wi-Fi, BLE, LoRa)
• Functional-safety or automotive compliance experience
• Familiarity with PLM systems (Arena, Windchill) and Git/SVN
• Experience developing production-test fixtures or ATE scripts
