Our teams collaborate across firmware, hardware, UI/UX, mobile, web, and cloud, offering true end-to-end product exposure. At EMCUS, we value engineering depth, ownership, and long-term growth, not just delivery.

We operate from Bangalore, India, serving customers across Europe, the UK, North America, and the Middle East.

Job Description

We are looking for a Hardware Design Engineer (5–8 years) to join our core engineering team. The

role involves end-to-end ownership of embedded hardware design, including schematics,

component selection, library creation, and guiding PCB layout through fabrication in collaboration

with PCB teams. The ideal candidate should have strong communication skills, a practical

understanding of real-world systems, and the ability to work closely with cross-functional teams.

We are looking for a serious, long-term professional who is passionate about hardware design and

willing to take full ownership of product development.

Job Responsibilities

• Design and develop end-to-end embedded hardware systems (analog & digital)

from concept to production

• Architect and implement designs using MPUs/MCUs (i.MX, Sitara, STM32,

Renesas)

• Develop robust schematics, perform component selection, and ensure reliability,

safety, and compliance considerations

• Implement and integrate high-speed and industrial interfaces (DDR, Ethernet,

USB, CAN, RS-485, SPI, I2C, UART)

• Perform circuit simulations and design validation using tools like PSpice / LTSpice

• Work closely with PCB layout engineers to:

• Define stack-up and routing constraints

• Ensure Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI)

• Review and approve PCB layouts

• Analyze schematics and design documents to guide PCB placement and routing

strategy

• Lead board bring-up, debugging, and root cause analysis

• Use lab tools (oscilloscope, logic analyzer, etc.) for hardware validation and

troubleshooting

• Ensure DFM/DFT compliance and support manufacturing, assembly, and testing

• Drive designs through prototype (PCBA), validation, and production readiness

• Collaborate with firmware and mechanical teams for system-level integration

• Participate in design reviews, risk analysis, and issue resolution

Required Skills

• Strong expertise in analog circuit design (power, filtering, protection, signal

conditioning)

• Solid experience in digital design using MCU/MPU-based system

• Hands-on experience with:

o NXP i.MX / TI Sitara (MPU-based systems preferred)

o STM32 / Renesas microcontrollers

• Proven experience in high-speed hardware design:

o DDR memory interfaces

o Ethernet, USB, and high-speed communication buses

• Strong understanding of Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI)

• Experience working with and guiding PCB design using:

o Mentor Graphics Xpedition

o Cadence Allegro o Altium

Designer

• Hands-on experience with simulation tools (PSpice, LTSpice)

• Strong hardware debugging skills using:

o Oscilloscope

o Logic analyzer

o Multimeter

• Experience in board bring-up and hardware validation

• Knowledge of DFM (Design for Manufacturing) and DFT (Design for Testability)

• Exposure to EMI/EMC design practices

• Experience in taking designs from schematic → PCB → PCBA → validation →

production

• Good understanding of hardware–firmware interaction and system integration

• Strong problem-solving and root cause analysis capability.
