We are looking for a seasoned and hands-on Embedded Systems Lead to architect, develop, and optimize the embedded platforms driving our UAVs, UGVs, and autonomous robotics systems. This role is critical to advancing capabilities in battery optimization, obstacle avoidance, and navigation autonomy, ensuring high reliability embedded solutions in dynamic and rugged environments.

Key Responsibilities :

Embedded Systems Architecture & Development :

- Architect and develop embedded solutions for UAVs, UGVs, and robotics, with a focus on autonomy and reliability.

- Design and optimize firmware for microcontrollers, sensor interfacing, and real-time processing.

Battery Systems & Power Optimization :

- Collaborate with electronics and battery teams to implement and optimize Battery Management Systems (BMS) for high-efficiency power usage.

- Optimize energy consumption strategies across sensors, compute modules, and communication systems.

Obstacle Avaoidance & Navigation :

- Integrate and optimize sensor fusion algorithms combining data from LiDAR, stereo cameras, IMUs, GNSS, ultrasonic sensors, and radar.

- Collaborate with AI and systems software teams to enable real-time SLAM, path planning, and autonomous navigation.

Hardware-Software Co-Design :

- Work closely with the Electronics, Mechanical, and Systems Integration teams to ensure tight coupling between hardware capabilities and embedded firmware.

- Review and contribute to PCB design for signal integrity, thermal considerations, and EMI/EMC compliance.

Team Leadership & Technical Mentorship :

- Build, mentor, and lead a high-performance embedded engineering team.

- Conduct technical reviews and provide architectural guidance.

Testing, Validation & Compliance :

- Define and drive testing strategies for embedded platforms under real-world and extreme conditions (temperature, vibration, dust).

- Implement robust debugging, diagnostics, and performance monitoring mechanisms.

Required Skills & Experience :

- Bachelors/Masters in Electronics, Computer science, IT, Embedded Systems, Robotics, or related field.

- 8+ years experience in embedded systems development, ideally in drones, UGVs, robotics, or aerospace electronics.

- Expertise in Embedded C/C++, RTOS, and low-level driver development.

- Power management and battery systems integration.

- Sensor fusion and control systems for navigation.

- PCB design tools and hardware debugging (Altium, Eagle, oscilloscopes, JTAG).

- Communication protocols: CAN, I2C, SPI, UART.

- Prior experience with SLAM, obstacle avoidance systems, or autonomy-enabling technologies is highly

preferred.

Preferred Skills :

- Familiarity with AI/ML inference on embedded platforms for perception tasks.

- Experience with motor control, ESC optimization, and propulsion systems.

- Knowledge of safety-critical systems and functional safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262).

Personal Attributes :

- Problem-solving mindset with a hands-on approach.

- Strong leadership skills and ability to work in a cross-functional startup environment.

- Passionate about building cutting-edge autonomous systems.
