Job Brief
We are looking for an analytical, results-driven Senior Hardware and Firmware Engineer who can create complex PCB layout while using the least space possible. The designs should allow for easy development and debugging for the firmware engineers while keeping customer requirements, cost constraints and space constraints in mind. Hardware debugging knowledge and soldering skills are essential for this role.
You would also be required to have a keen eye for developing firmware with a low memory footprint and low power consumption while being robust and resistant to errors. You are expected to achieve these goals using your in-depth understanding of the programming language, compilers, microcontroller architectures and debugging tools. You are expected to keep a look out for upcoming advancements in the industry which will help optimize the product.
Main Responsibilities
Your responsibilities will include:
- Would be asked to write efficient, modular and robust firmware which will interface with multiple components like MEMS sensors, battery chargers, secondary microcontrollers etc.
- Writing clean, readable, and modular code
- Would be deeply involved in the schematic design for a product which includes cost-benefit
- analysis of components, component evaluation by designing a proof of concept, suggestions
- in how the components should be connected etc.
- Collaborate with software engineers who would develop companion applications to the
- product
- Creating cost and space optimized layouts for 2/4-layer PCBs
- Collaborating with firmware engineers and supply chain personnel on deciding the
- components to be used on a PCB.
- Collaborate with firmware engineers in designing PCB schematics
- Debugging faulty PCBs using on a hardware level and collaborate with firmware engineers to debug on a firmware level.
- Understanding the manufacturing rules of PCB manufacturers and PCB assembly houses.
Key Requirements
- MSc or PhD in ECE, EEE, EIE or in related fields preferred with a strong technical knowledge and 3-4+ years of experience in designing PCB layouts and developing firmware.
