(HTCT) variants.


The successful candidate will be responsible for schematic design, multi-layer PCB
design, metrology circuits, power supplies, hardware bring-up, debugging,
validation, and supporting EVT/DVT/PVT builds through production.


Key Responsibilities 

  • Lead the design and development of metering hardware based on energy measurement AFE/ICs, for single-phase and three-phase applications.
  • Design current-sensing front ends appropriate for WC, LTCT, and HTCT
    meter variants using shunts, current transformers (CTs), and Rogowski
    coils, as applicable.

  • Perform schematic capture and multi-layer PCB design using Altium
    Designer and/or Cadence OrCAD/Allegro, Mentor PADS, or KiCad.

    automated/manual test stations, and hardware validation setups.

  • Work closely with firmware, software, mechanical, manufacturing, quality,
    and certification teams to resolve hardware and system-level issues.

  • Support regulatory and certification testing, including accuracy, type testing,
    EMC/immunity, surge, ESD, and environmental qualification.
Required Qualifications 
  • B.E./B.Tech/M.E./M.Tech in Electronics Communication Engineering
    (ECE), Electrical Electronics Engineering (EEE), or a related discipline.

  • 6+ years of relevant experience in electronics hardware design, preferably
    with significant experience in smart electricity meters or metering
    equipment.

  • Demonstrated experience taking hardware products through the complete
    development lifecycle, from architecture and schematic design through PCB
    development, prototype bring-up, validation, certification, and production.
