IoT Hardware Engineer

We are looking for an experienced *IoT Hardware Engineer* to join our team and lead the hardware development of our upcoming IoT products.

The successful candidate will be responsible for designing and prototyping electronic circuits, selecting components, and ensuring effective communication between hardware and software systems.

This role requires working closely with software engineers to refine device functionality and optimize system performance, ultimately creating reliable, production-ready IoT devices.

Key Responsibilities :
• Design, develop, and prototype IoT hardware, including sensor integration, microcontroller programming, and communication modules.
• Create and optimize circuit designs, including schematic capture, PCB layout, and hardware testing.
• Collaborate with software teams to define communication protocols and ensure seamless hardware-software integration.
• Implement reliable communication interfaces such as UART, I2C, SPI, and manage data exchange over protocols like MQTT and HTTP.
• Develop and test low-power designs to optimize battery life and device performance.
• Perform troubleshooting, debugging, and root cause analysis for hardware and system-level issues.
• Create documentation for hardware designs, component selection, and testing procedures.
• Conduct environmental testing to ensure device reliability under different conditions (e.g., temperature, humidity, and vibration).
• Ensure compliance with industry standards and prepare devices for certification processes (e.g., CE, FCC).
• Evaluate and select appropriate sensors, microcontrollers, and communication modules based on project requirements.

Qualifications :
• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or related field, or equivalent experience.
• 3+ years of experience in *hardware development for IoT* or embedded systems.
• Proficiency in designing and testing electronic circuits, including analog, digital, and mixed-signal designs.
• Hands-on experience with *PCB design tools* (e.g., Altium Designer, KiCad, Eagle).
• Strong experience with microcontroller platforms like *ESP32, STM32, or ARM Cortex*.
• Familiarity with IoT communication technologies (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LoRa, ZigBee, NB-IoT).
• Experience in *soldering, assembling, and testing* prototypes.
• Proficiency in *embedded C / C++* for microcontroller programming.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment.

Preferred Skills :
• Familiarity with power management techniques for battery-operated IoT devices.
• Knowledge of cloud platforms such as AWS IoT or Google Cloud IoT.
• Understanding of hardware security practices and data encryption.

What We Offer :
• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge projects in the IoT and drone technology fields.
• Competitive salary and benefits package.
• Dynamic and collaborative work environment with opportunities for professional growth.
• Hands-on experience in developing real-world IoT solutions.
