Job summary

Rekise Marine seeks a hands-on Embedded Engineer to own the full hardware lifecycle—from PCB design to bring-up—for autonomous vessels. You will work across electronics, power, firmware, and sensors in a fast-moving environment.

The role covers design of schematics and wiring harnesses, sensor integration (IMU, DVL, sonar, pressure), and rigorous debugging with lab instruments, while coordinating with EMS vendors for build and delivery.

Qualifications

• B.E./B.Tech in Electronics, Electrical, ECE, or a related discipline.
• 2–5 years hands-on experience across electronics design and test.
• Practical PCB design experience with KiCad, Altium, or Eagle.
• Working knowledge of wiring, harnessing, crimping, and connector‑assembly processes.
• Comfortable with lab instruments and hardware debugging; read schematics/datasheets.
• Basic familiarity with microcontrollers and embedded interfaces (UART, SPI, I2C).
• Fast learner — able to pick up new tools and processes quickly.

Responsibilities

• Schematic and PCB design/layout in a standard EDA tool, BOM prep and components.
• Design wiring harnesses and interconnects; cable routing and assembly drawings.
• Integrate, bench-test, and characterize sensors and electronics (IMU, DVL, sonar, pressure, leak).
• Board and system bring‑up and hardware debugging using lab instruments.
• Oversee and quality‑check assembly work by technicians; coordinate with EMS vendors.
• Support power distribution, grounding, and MCU interfacing as required.
• Produce and maintain documentation - schematics, wiring diagrams, BOMs, test reports.

Job description

About Rekise Marine

Rekise Marine is building autonomous ships and submarines that operate in the world's most hostile environments. We're executing India's flagship autonomous submarine project — the Jalkapi XLAUV — on order from the Indian Navy. This is an unmanned submarine weighing over 20 tons that can travel 5,000+ kilometers autonomously and operate in the ocean for 30+ days at a time.

The Role

We are looking for a hands‑on Embedded Engineer who is comfortable working across the full hardware lifecycle - PCB and electrical design, wiring and harnessing, sensor integration, and bench testing and bring‑up. This is an individual‑contributor role for an engineer who enjoys breadth across these areas and can own tasks end to end in a fast-moving build environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Schematics and PCB design/layout in a standard EDA tool, including BOM preparation and component selection.
• Design wiring harnesses and interconnects — cable routing, connectorisation, and electrical/wiring drawings and participate in their fabrication.
• Integrate, bench-test, and characterise sensors and electronics (IMU, DVL, sonar, pressure, leak, and similar).
• Perform board and system bring‑up and hardware debugging using lab instruments (oscilloscope, multimeter, bench PSU, logic analyser).
• Oversee and quality‑check assembly work by technical assistants — soldering, crimping, and harness build — and coordinate with EMS/assembly vendors.
• Support power distribution, grounding, and basic firmware/microcontroller interfacing as required.
• Produce and maintain documentation - schematics, wiring diagrams, cable schedules, BOMs, and test reports.

Required Qualifications

• B.E./B.Tech in Electronics, Electrical, ECE, or a related discipline.
• 2–5 years of hands‑on experience across electronics design and test, comfortable working in more than one area.
• Practical PCB design experience with a standard EDA tool (KiCad, Altium, or Eagle).
• Working knowledge of wiring, harnessing, crimping, and connector‑assembly processes.
• Comfortable with lab instruments and hardware debugging; able to read schematics and datasheets.
• Basic familiarity with microcontrollers and embedded interfaces (UART, SPI, I2C, and similar).
• Fast learner - able to pick up new tools, processes, and problem areas quickly and move between tasks.

Preferred Experience

• Exposure to robotics, marine, aerospace, or other regulated hardware domains.
• KiCad; embedded firmware (C/C++); sensor characterisation.
• Wire‑harness documentation and cable‑schedule experience.
• Experience through a full build‑and‑bring‑up cycle to delivery.

Why Join Rekise Marine

• Build the Hardware That Brings Autonomy to Life: You will build the electrical, electronics, power systems, and firmware that run autonomous vessels across a range of applications — from our flagship Jalkapi XLAUV, a 20‑ton submarine travelling 5,000+ kilometres underwater, on platforms operating from the coast to the deep sea. The challenge of building hardware that runs reliably for weeks, beneath the surface, is unlike anything else being built in India.
• Mission Impact: The electronics and firmware you build are the nervous system of vessels on live missions, including defence and security operations of national importance. Every board you design and every line of firmware you write directly shapes whether the platform performs, and returns safely.
• Technical Ownership: You will own the embedded and electrical stack from the ground up — hardware, power, firmware, integration, and bring‑up.
• Cross‑Disciplinary Work: Work at the intersection of electronics, power, mechanical, software, and robotics. Few embedded roles let you work this close to the full system you help bring to life.
• Benefits: Compensation at par with the best in the industry, health insurance for you and your family and other benefits.
