Lead Hardware Engineer

Technical & Product Leadership

• Lead end-to-end product development from concept, design, and prototyping to testing, validation, and production.
  Architect and guide hardware–firmware co-design for embedded and edge computing systems. Collaborate with product management, operations, and QA teams to align engineering goals with business and customer needs. Ensure system integration, performance optimization, and long-term reliability. Drive innovation and applied R&D in emerging DeepTech domains including AgriTech automation, MedTech instrumentation, and secure embedded systems.

Hardware Expertise

• Deep, hands-on experience with microcontrollers and processors (ESP32, STM32, NXP, Raspberry Pi, etc.).
  Exposure to FPGAs, Nvidia Jetson, and custom SoCs for defence- or space-grade systems. Strong background in circuit design, PCB review, debugging, and validation. Expertise in communication protocols: UART, SPI, IC, CAN, USB, Ethernet. Skilled in sensor interfacing, power management, and rugged hardware design for field and industrial environments.

Firmware & Embedded Software

• Proficiency in C/C++ and Python for embedded systems.
  Experience with FreeRTOS, Zephyr, or vendor SDKs (STM HAL, ESP-IDF, etc.). Strong understanding of firmware security, OTA mechanisms, and hardware–software interfacing. Familiar with connectivity stacks: BLE, Wi-Fi, LoRa, Modbus, ZigBee, etc. Competence in embedded data logging, diagnostics, and performance tuning.

Domain-Specific Contributions

• Smart & Secure Systems: Edge controllers, authentication modules, secure hardware tokens.
  AgriTech: Sensor-driven automation, irrigation and environment monitoring systems. MedTech/HealthTech: Portable diagnostic and health monitoring devices with regulatory compliance. Defence & Space: Ruggedized, precision-embedded systems with emphasis on reliability and environmental resilience.

Team & Client Management

• Lead, mentor, and upskill hardware and firmware engineers across projects. Conduct technical reviews of schematics, layouts, and firmware architecture. Collaborate directly with international clients and partners for design validation, updates, and technology transfers. Contribute to project planning, documentation, and delivery with strong ownership and clear communication.
