Company Description:
SnifferBots is a Pune-based IoT hardware company on a mission to stop electrical fires before they start.
Electrical control panels and switchgear are protected against overcurrent, overvoltage, and short-circuits — but not against the slow build-up of heat, humidity, and gas that actually causes most panel fires. SnifferBots closes that gap. Our sensing units install inside each feeder compartment, continuously monitor conditions in real time, and can proactively trip a feeder before a fault becomes a fire, with live alerts on a connected app.
We're a small, hands-on team building hardware that gets deployed inside real electrical infrastructure, and we're now developing our next-generation device. If you want to build safety-critical technology that protects people, equipment, and uptime, we'd love to hear from you.

Role Description
SnifferBots builds IoT hardware that detects the early warning signs of electrical fires — abnormal heat, humidity, and gas — inside control panels and switchgear, and can proactively trip a feeder before a fault becomes a fire.



We're building our next-generation device and looking for a hands-on engineer to help take it from prototype to product.
What you'll do:
• Build and iterate on hardware prototypes (ESP32-based) integrating temperature, humidity, and gas sensors
• Write and maintain firmware in C/C++ (Arduino framework): sensor logic, alarm thresholds, relay control, OTA updates, offline data buffering
• Integrate the device with a cloud database (Firebase) for real-time and historical data logging
• Build automated SMS (MSG91) and email alerts for warning/critical conditions
• Debug across the full stack — sensors, firmware, and cloud connectivity
• Work directly with the founder on design decisions and the path to a manufacturable product
What you bring:
• Solid C/C++ programming; hands-on with the Arduino IDE and ESP32 (or ESP8266/STM32)
• Practical experience with I2C, SPI, UART, and WiFi
• Basic electr
