- Familiarity with hardware design principles, reading complex schematics, PCB layout reviews, and lab tools (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers).
- Demonstrated ability to lead, inspire, and manage team dynamics while maintaining high engineering rigor.

Eligibility
- B.Tech / M.Tech in Electronics & Communication (ECE), Electrical Engineering (EE), Computer Science, or Embedded Systems.
- 6+ years of hands-on experience in embedded systems and firmware development, with at least 2+ years leading engineering teams or hardware projects.
- Proven experience delivering commercial-grade IoT/embedded hardware products to production.

What we are looking for
- A hands-on technical leader who balances deep embedded engineering expertise with structured project management.
- Proactive problem-solver committed to code quality, product durability, and timely milestones.
- Excellent communicator capable of translating complex engineering details across multidisciplinary teams.

What we Offer
- Lead key engineering initiatives at an innovative clean-tech startup.
- Work with cutting-edge optical, chemical, and IoT sensing technologies.
- World-class lab and prototyping infrastructure at IIT Delhi R&I; Park.
- Market-competitive salary package with strong professional recognition and growth.
