Job Summary
The role focuses on embedded system architecture, embedded hardware design, PCB circuit design, firmware development, and camera sensor integration. The engineer will work on MCU- and SoC-based platforms that interface with multiple camera streams and sensor modalities, process camera data near the edge, and communicate reliably with higher-level robot control systems.
This position offers the opportunity to build practical robotic sensing hardware from concept to prototype, including circuit design, board bring-up, low-level firmware, multi-camera data interfaces, industrial communication protocols, and system-level debugging for next-generation robotic hands.
Job Description
- Design and develop embedded hardware and embedded system architectures for tactile sensing modules, robotic fingertips, robotic hands, and related robot sensing platforms.
- Design, review, and bring up custom PCBs for camera imaging sensors, sensor interface circuits, MCU/SoC modules, power regulation, data acquisition, and communication interfaces.
- Develop embedded firmware in C/C++ for MCUs and embedded processors, including low-level drivers, sensor synchronization, data acquisition, communication stacks, and diagnostic functions.
- Integrate camera imaging sensors and support multi-stream camera processing, including sensor triggering, frame acquisition, buffering, bandwidth management, and data transfer to edge processors or robot computers.
- Select and implement camera and sensor data interfaces such as MIPI CSI-2, parallel camera interfaces, USB, Ethernet, SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, and other relevant links depending on system requirements.
- Implement and validate industrial communication and networking interfaces, including Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, Ethernet TCP/IP, and related protocols for robot-system integration.
Requirements
Relevant education and experience:
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, Robotics, or a related field.
- Junior level: 1-3 years of relevant experience in embedded hardware, embedded firmware, PCB design, or sensor-system development.
- Senior level: 3-5 years of relevant experience with demonstrated ownership of embedded hardware or embedded system modules from design to validation.
- Hands-on experience with embedded system architecture, hardware design, PCB circuit design, firmware development, and board-level debugging.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in robotics, robotic hands, tactile sensing, camera-based sensing, or sensor fusion systems.
- Experience with STM32, NXP, ESP32, ARM Cortex-M, Jetson, Raspberry Pi, or other MCU/SoC platforms.
- Familiarity with RTOS, embedded Linux, V4L2, GStreamer, OpenCV, ROS/ROS2, or robot middleware is a plus.
- Familiarity with camera sensor integration and data interfaces, such as MIPI CSI-2, USB, Ethernet, SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, and parallel camera interfaces.
- Understanding of multi-stream camera acquisition, camera synchronization, frame buffering, bandwidth estimation, data throughput, and latency considerations.
- Familiarity with industrial communication protocols and networking, including Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, TCP/IP, Ethernet-based communication, and device-level protocol debugging.
- Ability to evaluate tradeoffs among bandwidth, circuit complexity, board size, power consumption, noise robustness, and system scalability.
- Experience moving prototypes toward manufacturable and reliable hardware designs is a strong plus for senior candidates.
Personality/ Attitude
- Strong interpersonal and leadership skills
- Proactive, dedicated, business-oriented, responsible and willing to learn
- Good communication skills, creative problem-solving skills and attention to detail
Benefits
- Competitive compensation package based on experience and qualifications
- Work in a high-speed technology environment backed by Vingroup and VinDynamics leadership.
- Competitive compensation package aligned with capability and business impact.
- Clear ownership, measurable KPIs, and exposure to global partners, US platform models, and frontier robotics businesses.
