  • Minimum of 2 years of industry experience in a similar electronic engineering role.
  • Experience working under an ISO9001 Quality Management System.
    Essential Skills & Knowledge:
  • Proven experience with 3-phase motors, variable frequency drives (VFDs), and sensorless control.
  • Proficiency in mixed-signal and analogue circuit design.
  • Experience in embedded systems and microcontroller-based product design.
  • Knowledge of digital communication protocols: Serial (RS232, RS485), SPI, I2C.
  • Skilled in debugging, simulating, and validating PCBs and electronic assemblies.
  • Familiarity with safety and regulatory compliance processes, including LVD and EMC requirements.
  • Proficient in using ECAD/PCB design tools, particularly Altium Designer.
  • Strong collaboration skills across various engineering disciplines.
    Desirable Criteria:
  • Understanding of thermal management and heat dissipation in high-power electronics.
  • Experience with wireless technologies such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or Zigbee.
  • Familiarity with low-power design for battery-operated/mobile systems.
  • Ability to quickly prototype and iterate on hardware solutions.
  • Experience with safety-critical systems and hazard analysis (e.g., FMEA, fault tree analysis).
  • Knowledge of EMI/EMC shielding and grounding techniques.
  • Experience with data logging, cloud-based applications, or IoT platforms.
  • Exposure to robotic or automated systems and API-based modular control
