Job Summary
- We are looking for a skilled Embedded Systems Engineer to design, develop, and optimize firmware and hardware for embedded applications. The ideal candidate should have experience in C programming, microcontroller-based systems (e.g., STM32, ATtiny), RF design, and low-power embedded systems.
Key Responsibilities
Firmware Development
- Develop firmware in C/C++ for microcontrollers from STM32, Atmel Xmega and ATtiny MCUs among others
- Well versed with peripherals and communications protocols such as SPI, I2C, UART, Timers, DMA
- Implement low-power strategies, sleep modes, and wake-up mechanisms (e.g., LPTIM-based RTC, power gating).
- Develop for communication protocols e.g. Lora, Satellite comms, LTE, sub 1 GHZ
- Design real-time embedded applications with RTOS or bare-metal programming.
- Optimize firmware for size, speed, reliability and power efficiency.
Hardware Design & Integration
- Develop and test embedded hardware prototypes, including RF circuits, amplifiers, and sensor interfaces.
- Work with MCU-PLL interfaces, SPI, I2C, UART, and GPIO-based control.
- Experience with Ecad tools such as Altium, Eagle, KiCad(Altium Preferred)
- Design and test RF amplifiers, oscillators, and impedance matching networks.
- Troubleshoot hardware and firmware issues using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and logic analyzers.
System Optimization & Testing
- Profile and minimize current consumption in battery-powered systems.
- Implement debugging strategies using UART, SWD, and JTAG.
- Perform PCB layout optimization for compact embedded designs
- Test embedded systems for reliability, EMI, and thermal performance.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Electronics,Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, or related field.
- Strong C programming skills and experience with embedded toolchains (Microchip studio, STM32Cube IDE, Keil, GCC, IAR, etc.).
- Experience with microcontrollers (STM32, ATtiny, AVR, etc.) and low-power design.
- Knowledge of RF circuits, impedance matching, and power amplifier design.
- Hands-on experience with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and RF measurement tools, soldering SMD components
- Excellent Debugging and problem-solving skills.
- Able to work in a team and absolute positive attitude.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr).
- Experience Developing Firmware for STM32, ATmel and/or Nordic MCUS
- Knowledge of PCB design (Altium, KiCad, Eagle).
- Understanding of low-power wireless protocols (LoRa, BLE, Zigbee).
- Excellent skills in debugging both hardware and firmware
- Experience with MATLAB, Python for signal analysis.
