• Implement wireless communication protocols like BLE, LoRa, Wi-Fi, and 4G LTE for data acquisition and transmission.
• Implement communication protocols like SPI, I2C, UART, RS485, RS232, CAN, etc.
• Oversee and manage the entire Electronics Department, including firmware and hardware teams.
• Understand project requirements from clients, break them down into firmware and hardware tasks, and allocate responsibilities accordingly.
• Evaluate the time and cost required for tasks in firmware and hardware domains.
• Device driver development for various sensors and modules.
• Contribute to various stages of the firmware development lifecycle, including requirements analysis, design, coding, testing, and debugging.
• Write clean, efficient, and well-documented code adhering to best practices.
• Collaborate effectively with engineers from various disciplines (hardware, software, etc.).
• Proactively identify and propose solutions to technical challenges.
• Contribute hands-on to hardware development at a basic to intermediate level, including schematic design, PCB design review, and hardware debugging.
• Identify specialized expertise or resources required for tasks beyond personal hardware capabilities.
• Document design decisions and development progress effectively.
• Ensure collaboration and integration between firmware and hardware for cohesive project delivery.
• Support the team with functional prototypes.
• Documentation, specification, and quality audits (advice) with external partners.
• Design and verification of simulated signal processing systems with hardware (mainly FPGA/VHDL).
• Commissioning and tests of control systems.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics Engineering or a related field.
• 5–10 years of experience in embedded firmware development, with additional experience or exposure in hardware development.
• Proficient in C/C++ programming for embedded systems.
• Experience with wireless communication protocols like BLE, LoRa, WiFi, and 4G LTE.
• Experience with communication protocols like UART, I2C, SPI, RS485, RS232, and CAN.
• Hands-on experience in basic to intermediate-level hardware tasks, including schematic design, PCB design review, and hardware debugging.
