Embedded Engineer – DeviceNet / Industrial Communication

Job Title

Embedded Engineer – DeviceNet / Industrial Communication

• 4–6 years of handson experience in Embedded C development for microcontrollerbased systems used in industrial automation or automotive applications.
• Strong understanding of microcontroller architecture, including memory mapping, interrupts, timers, DMA, and peripheral configuration.
• Practical experience with realtime embedded firmware development, using baremetal or RTOSbased environments (e.g., FreeRTOS or equivalent).
• Experience working with CANbased communication systems (CAN 2.0) in embedded products.
• Exposure to industrial and/or automotive communication protocols, such as DeviceNet (DNET), CANopen, J1939, or proprietary CANbased protocols.
• Experience developing, integrating, or maintaining embedded communication stacks or middleware.
• Working knowledge of common embedded interfaces and buses, including UART, SPI, I²C, GPIO, and Ethernet (basic awareness acceptable).
• Strong debugging and integration skills, using tools such as debuggers (JTAG/SWD), CAN analyzers, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
• Experience following embedded software development lifecycle (SDLC) practices, including design, implementation, testing, and maintenance.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with hardware, system, and test engineers during bringup, integration, and validation phases.
• Experience using version control and collaboration tools such as Git, JIRA, and Confluence.

Roles & Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and test embedded firmware for industrial automation and automotive electronic systems, including controllers, gateways, and smart devices.
• Architect and implement realtime embedded software on microcontrollers and SoC platforms using baremetal and RTOSbased environments.
• Develop and integrate industrial and automotive communication protocols, including CANbased networks such as DeviceNet (DNET), as well as other fieldbus, serial, and Ethernetbased interfaces as required.
• Design and maintain embedded communication middleware and abstraction layers to support protocol portability and scalability across multiple hardware platforms.
• Develop and maintain lowlevel drivers and board support components for communication interfaces and peripherals (e.g., CAN/CANFD, UART, SPI, I²C, Ethernet, timers, GPIO).
• Support system bringup, integration, and debugging activities, working closely with hardware, system, and test teams during all project phases.
• Participate in integration, interoperability, and systemlevel testing of embedded communication solutions with industrial controllers, automotive ECUs, and external devices.
• Implement robust error handling, diagnostics, and recovery mechanisms to ensure reliable operation in industrial and automotive environments.
• Perform debugging and fault analysis using standard embedded development and communication analysis tools.
• Contribute to software architecture, design reviews, and code reviews, ensuring high standards of quality, maintainability, and longterm supportability.
