Location: Pune
JobType: full time
We are seeking an experienced hardware engineering lead to drive the
design, development, and validation of advanced power electronics and mixed-signal systems
for UAV and aerospace applications. This role involves full product lifecycle ownership—from requirements and architecture to prototyping, testing, and production—while ensuring compliance with stringent military and EMI/EMC standards.
Key Responsibilities
Lead the architecture, schematic design, PCB development, and validation of high-reliability hardware systems.
Design
high-power and mixed-signal electronics
, including motor controllers, power converters, sensor interfaces, and embedded hardware.
Develop
multilayer PCB layouts (10+ layers)
with controlled impedance, high-speed routing, differential pairs, and thermal optimization.
Own end-to-end hardware delivery: requirements, simulation, prototyping, testing, certification, release to manufacturing.
Ensure compliance with
defence/aerospace standards
such as MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-810,



and equivalent qualification frameworks.
Implement
EMI/EMC mitigation strategies
across design, layout, and enclosure levels.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (firmware, mechanical, systems, testing) to deliver mission-critical products.
Conduct DFMEA, validation testing, thermal analysis, and design reviews for reliability and robustness.
Integrate communication interfaces and sensors into embedded hardware platforms.
Required Expertise
Robust hands-on experience in
power stage design, thermal engineering, and EMI/EMC control
.
Deep knowledge of
closed-loop control systems
, sensor integration, and high-speed interfaces.
Proven experience in
aerospace/defence or mission-critical electronics environments
.
Proficiency in interfaces such as
I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, RS232/RS485, USB, Ethernet, HDMI, MIPI CSI/DSI
, etc.
