Unified Global Tech - Embedded Design Engineer - PCB/Firmware

Description :

About the job :

Skills : Altium, Ki cad, BOM, SPI, I2C/SPI/UART, Digital Signal Processing, Embedded Design,

Job Title : Embedded Design Engineer

Location : Bengaluru (Mission Road / Sudhamanagar)

Company : Miniaturize Electronics Private Limited

Experience : Approx.

2 - 5 years

Department : R&D / Embedded Systems Engineering

Company Overview :

Miniaturize Electronics Private Limited is a startup incorporated in June 2024 in Bengaluru, involved in research and development in engineering and electronics.

Address : 76/1, AMR Complex, 3B-3rd Floor, Mission Road, Sudhamanagar, Bengaluru

Role & Key Responsibilities :

- Design and develop embedded hardware and firmware components for new electronic products - possibly involving miniaturised electronics given the company name and startup nature.

- Work on schematic design, component selection and PCB layout for compact/miniaturised systems.

- Develop firmware in C/C++ (and possibly other languages) for microcontrollers or SoCs, manage peripheral interfaces, communication protocols (UART, I2C, SPI, CAN), sensors, etc.

- Perform board bring-up, hardware-software integration, debug systems using test equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters).

- Collaborate with mechanical, hardware, manufacturing and test teams to convert prototypes into production-ready modules.

- Prepare technical documentation : design specifications, BOMs, test plans, user manuals.

- Ensure that designs meet reliability, miniaturisation constraints, power/thermal budgets, versioning and production readiness.

- Stay up to date on newer embedded technologies, support continuous improvement in design methodology.

Required Skills & Qualifications :

- Bachelors (B.Tech/B.E) in Electronics, Electrical, ECE, Instrumentation or equivalent.

- 2 to 5 years of hands-on experience in embedded systems (hardware + firmware).

- Strong understanding of embedded C/C++ programming.

- Experience in schematic/PCB design (tools like Altium, KiCad, Eagle or similar).

- Good knowledge of microcontrollers/SoCs, peripheral interfacing, communication protocols (SPI, IC, UART, CAN, etc).

- Experience with hardware debugging tools and good troubleshooting skills.

- Capable of working in a dynamic startup environment, managing multiple responsibilities and being proactive.

Desirable / Preferred Skills :

- Experience in miniaturised or low-power electronic design (small form-factor, compact systems).

- Familiarity with RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr) or bare-metal firmware design.

- Exposure to manufacturing / production readiness, DFM/DFT considerations.

- Knowledge of power/thermal/EMI constraints for compact electronics.

- Previous experience in R&D environments or startup electronics firms is a plus.
