Announcement For the post of Hardware Engineer

Skills & Requirements:

• Knowledge of embedded systems and IoT with sixmonths of experience in the electronics industry and indeveloping firmware for IoT devices usingmicrocontrollers such as Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, etc.
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical /Electronics /Computer Engineering or related fields
• Freshers can also apply.

Summary:

We are seeking a skilled IOT Hardware Engineer to join our research project "Hyperlocal Labs" at IIT Madras. We are a research/consultancy group guided by Professor. Raghunathan Rengaswamy, Department of Chemical Engineering.

The successful candidate will be responsible for developing and maintaining a hardware prototype for IoT nodes. An ideal candidate should have a strong background in microcontrollers, wired and wireless protocols, RTOS, cloud integration, and internet protocols.

Responsibilities:

1.Developing a hardware prototype for IoT nodes using Raspberry Pi/Arduino/ESP32 (the

nodes will be enabled with GPS & GPRS/LTE and will also have an array of sensors

attached to them)

2.Work on wired and wireless protocols such as UART, I2C, SPI, Bluetooth, WiFi, HTTP,

MQTT, BLE, ESPNOW, etc.

3.Design, develop, and maintain firmware for our IoT device

4.Work on developing firmware using platforms such as PlatformIO and Arduino IDE

5.Work closely with the hardware team to ensure seamless integration of the firmware with

the hardware components

6.Work closely with the software team to ensure device management, OTA, and

dashboard-like services

7.Test and validate the firmware to ensure functionality and performance

8.Work on preparing documentation for firmware

9.Work on writing firmware that is apparent with proper indentation and comments

10.Work on deploying the said IoT in the field and testing them (this would require the

candidate to assemble & deploy such nodes and validate the prototypes)

Benefits:

You will gain invaluable and intangible benefits based on your role, such as knowledge across multiple domains including hardware, software, design, data science and AI, project management, hands-on experience, involvement in real-life challenging problems, handling responsibilities, opportunities for journal publications, field visits, engaging in client talks, and a foundation for future corporate roles or

further studies, giving you a competitive edge in the market. We are doing multiple projects with Government and Corporate companies. It will be a rich experience to work in a research/startup environment from a premier institute like IIT Madras.

Minimum Duration: 6 Months (1 Month probation period)
