Key Responsibilities:
Embedded Systems Design and Development:
* Design, prototype, and implement embedded systems for remotely operated devices.
* Implement and maintain CAN-BUS network protocols to ensure seamless communication within the robotic system.
* Preferably develop and optimize firmware for microcontrollers and embedded platforms.
* Integrate sensors, actuators, and other components into embedded systems.
Hardware Development and Optimization:
* Collaborate on hardware design, including circuit board layout and component selection.
* Optimize power management and electronic systems for reliability and efficiency.
* Conduct testing and debugging of hardware and firmware in laboratory and real-world conditions.
Communication Systems Integration:
* Implement communication protocols for remotely operated such as LoRaWAN, Wi-Fi.
* Work on solutions for long-range, low-power, and reliable remote connectivity.
* Ensure seamless integration of communication modules with embedded systems.
Documentation and Compliance:
* Maintain detailed documentation for designs, code, and testing procedures.
* Ensure all work adheres to industry standards and safety regulations.
Essential Qualifications and Experience:
* Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics Engineering, Embedded Systems, Electronics and Communications or a related field.
* Proven experience in embedded systems development, including hardware and firmware design.
* Strong knowledge of microcontrollers (e.g., STM32, PIC, or ARM Cortex) and embedded platforms.
* Proficiency in embedded programming (e.g., C, C++) and real-time operating systems (RTOS).
* Experience in PCB design and layout using tools like Altium or Eagle.
* Hands-on experience with hardware debugging tools (e.g., oscilloscopes, logic analyzers).
Preferred Skills and Experience:
* Familiarity with communication systems such as LoRaWAN, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or similar.
* Knowledge of IoT and remote device communication frameworks.
* Experience with integrating sensors, motor controllers, and other hardware into embedded systems.
* Understanding of power management and optimization for low-power devices.
* Exposure to robotics, UAVs, or other remotely operated systems.
