This role is ideal for an engineer with 2–5 years of experience who enjoys building, testing, debugging, and improving real-world hardware systems. You will work closely with mechanical, software, and systems teams to develop and integrate defence-grade underwater platforms.

? Key Responsibilities

- Translate system requirements into electrical specifications and designs.
- Design and develop multilayer PCBs, including power, ESC, control, and communication boards.
- Develop schematics, PCB layouts, BOMs, and engineering documentation.
- Build prototypes and perform hardware bring-up, debugging, and validation.
- Work with communication protocols such as CAN, RS485, RS232, UART, I2C, SPI, and Ethernet.
- Support electrical architecture development, power distribution, sensor interfaces, and communication networks.
- Perform PCB assembly, SMD/SMT soldering, module integration, and functional testing.
- Support vehicle-level electrical assembly, harnessing, integration, and system validation.
- Conduct root-cause analysis and troubleshoot hardware failures during testing and field trials.
- Support EMI/EMC, thermal, endurance, and environmental testing.
- Maintain design traceability, revision control,



test reports, and technical documentation.
- Work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver reliable and fully tested electrical systems.
- Identify design issues and continuously improve designs based on test data and field feedback.

? Required Skills
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering or a related discipline.
