LEAD ENGINEER-CONNECTIVITY STACK&MW

An experienced engineer with 5–8 years of expertise in connectivity technology validation, responsible for performing requirement analysis, design, and testing across firmware, core stack, and middleware layers. The individual leads module-level quality, performs root cause analysis, and provides technical mentoring to junior staff. Proven ability in post-silicon bring-up, system-level debugging, and low-level connectivity standards such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB, and Ethernet on embedded platforms.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform requirement analysis and feasibility studies at the system level with risk identification and effort estimation.
• Design, implement, test, and debug post-silicon test frameworks and validate connectivity features across multiple layers.
• Ensure traceability from design to delivery and contribute to code quality through optimization, coverage, and reviews.
• Own technical deliverables, conduct peer code reviews, and define test and validation strategies for silicon platforms.
• Identify training needs, lead capability-building efforts, and mentor team members on best practices and technology trends.
• Participate in organizational and project-level technical initiatives and deliver technical training as planned.

Education & Experience

• Qualification: B.E./B.Tech/MCA or equivalent in Electronics, Computer Science, or related domain
• Experience: 5–8 years in connectivity protocol validation, embedded systems, or post-silicon testing

Core Competencies

• Connectivity Protocol Expertise: Hands-on validation and debugging of one or more of the following:
• Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, GPS, USB, Ethernet, Zigbee, Z-Wave
• Platform Experience:
• Embedded Linux, RTOS (e.g., FreeRTOS, Nucleus), proprietary embedded operating systems
• Development Tools:
• Protocol sniffers and analyzers (Wireshark, Ellisys, etc.)
• JTAG debuggers, trace tools, and post-silicon debug utilities
• Compilation toolchains, hardware bring-up workflows
• Programming Skills:
• C, C++, Java – with emphasis on low-level hardware interfacing and debug hooks
