Education-M.Tech/B.Tech / B.E. in Embedded systems, Electronics, Computer Science, or a related field

ABOUT NOVUS HI-TECH

Novus Hi-Tech Robotic Systemz Pvt. Ltd. designs and delivers advanced driver-assistance, robotics, and connected-device solutions across four business units: ADAS, ADAS Aftermarket, Mobile Robotics, and Defence Robotics. The ADAS business builds embedded firmware and sensor-fusion software that runs directly on automotive-grade hardware powering Electronic Control Units (ECUs) that support perception, driver-assistance, and safety functions across vehicle platforms.

ROLE SUMMARY

We're looking for an Embedded Firmware Engineer to join our ADAS team, writing and testing C/C++ firmware that runs directly on automotive-grade ECUs. This is a hands-on individual-contributor role for an engineer who enjoys working close to the hardware debugging at the driver level, working with sensor data, and helping build reliable, safety-critical software. You'll work closely with senior engineers and Engineering Manager, contributing to sensor-fusion and perception modules while growing your expertise in AUTOSAR, RTOS, and automotive-grade development practices.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Design, develop, and test embedded firmware in C/C++ for ADAS-related Electronic Control Units (ECUs).
• Contribute to sensor-fusion and perception software modules, working with data from radar, camera, LiDAR, or ultrasonic sensors.
• Write and maintain firmware aligned with AUTOSAR architecture and automotive coding standards.
• Debug and resolve low-level issues involving RTOS, device drivers, and communication protocols (CAN, LIN, Ethernet, SPI, and I2C).
• Participate in code reviews, unit testing, static analysis, and CI/CD practices to maintain firmware quality.
• Support integration and validation activities with hardware, systems, and testing teams.
• Follow MISRA C/C++ coding guidelines and contribute to functional-safety-compliant (ISO 26262) development practices.
• Document design decisions, test results, and known issues clearly for the wider engineering team.
• Collaborate with senior engineers and managers on sprint planning, estimates, and technical trade-offs.

REQUIRED SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

• 2–3 years of hands-on embedded software development experience.
• Strong programming skills in C/C++ for embedded, real-time systems; experience on radar application development is preferred.
• Working knowledge of microcontroller/SoC-based firmware development for automotive or similarly safety-critical domains.
• Understanding of RTOS concepts and real-time system design.
• Exposure to automotive communication protocols such as CAN, LIN, SPI, or I2C.
• Familiarity with embedded debugging tools such as JTAG, emulators, and oscilloscopes/logic analyzers.
• Basic understanding of AUTOSAR concepts and MISRA C/C++ coding practices is a plus.
• Good analytical and debugging skills, with attention to detail in safety-critical code.
• Ability to work collaboratively in a cross-functional engineering environment.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Prior experience with radar, camera, or other ADAS sensor applications.
• Exposure to functional safety standards (ISO 26262) or automotive cybersecurity practices (ISO 21434).
• Familiarity with version control (Git), CI/CD pipelines, and static analysis tools.
• Coursework or project experience involving sensor fusion, signal processing, or embedded Linux.
