- Enforce documentation, change management, and quality practices

Required Experience

- 12–18 years in embedded hardware + firmware development
- Strong hands-on experience with industrial electronics (servo drives, inverters, motion products)
- Prior role as Technical Lead / Architect / Hands-on Manager

Must-Have Technical Skills

- MCU/SoC hardware design, analog/digital circuits
- Power management, EMC/EMI fundamentals, PCB designs layout review
- Embedded C, RTOS/bare metal development
- Debugging with JTAG/SWD, oscilloscopes
- Industrial communication protocols – EtherCAT , CAN , Profinet , IO-Link

Positive to Have

- Motor control / drive systems
- Cybersecurity (secure boot, crypto, IEC 62443)
- Functional safety (SIL2/SIL3)
- Automated testing / CI concepts

Pay: ₹4,000,000.00 - ₹5,000,000.00 per year
