Embedded Firmware Engineer

Description :

We are looking for a highly skilled and passionate Embedded Firmware Engineer with 6 to 8 years of hands-on experience in embedded systems and IoT product development. The ideal candidate will play a key role in designing, developing, debugging, and optimizing firmware solutions for next-generation connected devices and embedded platforms.

This role requires strong expertise in embedded C/C++, microcontroller-based development, communication protocols, RTOS, and hardware-software integration. The candidate will work closely with cross-functional teams including hardware engineering, cloud engineering, mobile/web application teams, QA, and product management to build reliable and scalable IoT products.

Key Responsibilities :

- Design, develop, test, and maintain firmware for embedded and IoT-based products.

- Develop low-level drivers, middleware, communication stacks, and device interfaces for embedded platforms.

- Work extensively on microcontrollers such as ARM Cortex, STM32, ESP32, PIC, or similar embedded chipsets.

- Implement and optimize communication protocols including UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, MQTT, TCP/IP, BLE, and Wi-Fi.

- Integrate embedded firmware with cloud platforms, mobile applications, and web-based monitoring systems.

- Troubleshoot firmware and hardware integration issues during product development and production stages.

- Collaborate with hardware engineers during board bring-up, prototype validation, and debugging activities.

- Optimize firmware for performance, memory utilization, low power consumption, and reliability.

- Participate in code reviews, documentation, firmware testing, and release management activities.

- Support OTA firmware upgrade implementation and field deployment processes.

- Work closely with QA and validation teams to ensure product stability and compliance.

Required Skills :

- Strong programming expertise in Embedded C and C++.

- Solid experience with RTOS concepts and implementation (FreeRTOS or similar).

- Hands-on experience with embedded debugging tools such as JTAG, Oscilloscope, Logic Analyzer, and Serial Debugging tools.

- Strong understanding of embedded system architecture and firmware lifecycle.

- Experience working with IoT products and connected device ecosystems.

- Familiarity with Git version control and collaborative development workflows.

- Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills.

Preferred Skills :

- Experience with AWS IoT, Azure IoT, or similar cloud platforms.

- Knowledge of OTA firmware update mechanisms.

- Understanding of hardware schematics, PCB design concepts, and hardware interfaces.

- Experience in low-power firmware optimization techniques.

- Exposure to secure firmware development and device authentication mechanisms is an added advantage.

Education : B.Tech / B.E / M.Tech in Electronics, Embedded Systems, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.

Why Join?

- Opportunity to work on innovative IoT and embedded products.

- Exposure to end-to-end product development lifecycle.

- Collaborative and technology-driven work environment.

- Opportunity to work with cross-functional engineering teams on cutting-edge embedded solutions.
