Embedded Development Engineer (RHE-1) at Botsync About Us: With the increasingly dynamic and accelerating pace of consumer demand today, manufacturers have to introduce a much greater degree of flexibility into their processes to keep up. The current state of automation and robotics which enables many of these manufacturing processes, however does not allow for this versatility. Machines from different vendors each use their own proprietary programming interfaces, are not designed to easily speak with each other, and often require complex and customised programs to integrate them together. Being a robotics manufacturer ourselves once, we have been through these challenges and we understand how frustrating it can get. Our vendor agnostic software platform, syncOS is designed to seamlessly integrate different automation systems using a simple and intuitive no-code interface. We believe this can help make automated process much more versatile and nimble than has been possible before, and is what the industry needs. We started as 4 undergraduates who just dreamed big but had not no clue how the world worked. Today we work with some of the largest manufacturers in the world like Ford, Caterpillar, Nestle across multiple countries. This is because we always firmly believed that it is never a lack of knowledge, but a lack of drive that stands in the way of building things. Today we are still that young and passionate team, but with more like minded individuals who have joined us along the way, who are all obsessed on chasing our vision to make the adoption of robotics and automation much simpler, and further help #automateasia. *Key Responsibilities: * Develop, debug, and test embedded hardware & firmware for Botsync’s AMR platforms during customer-specific adoption projects. Participate in embedded architecture design for Botsync AMR products. Build and validate firmware for in-house PCBs integrated into AMRs deployed across various industrial environments. Analyze PCB schematics and hardware documentation to implement appropriate firmware logic aligned with hardware design. Diagnose and resolve issues at both the firmware and hardware levels during lab validation, pilot runs, and field deployments. Document firmware designs using flowcharts, state diagrams, logic breakdowns, and structured test results. Design and implement test tools and validation strategies to streamline manufacturing and ensure hardware quality. Investigate and close issues arising during AMR production, with a focus on repeatability and long-term reliability. *Qualifications: * Bachelor's or master's degree in electronics, electrical engineering, or a comparable degree. Solid programming experience in Embedded C and C++ for microcontrollers (preferably ARM Cortex-M series, STM32, or similar). Strong understanding of communication protocols like UART, SPI, I2C, and Ethernet. Hands-on knowledge of CANBus and Modbus RTU/TCP communication. Experience working with RS485, RS232, and industrial networking standards. Basic understanding of networking concepts such as TCP/IP and UDP is an added advantage. Good grasp of motor control basics (DC motors, brushless motors, servo systems) at both firmware and hardware levels. Experience interfacing with sensors commonly used in robotics (IMUs, LiDAR, encoders, ToF sensors). Comfortable reading PCB schematics and system wiring diagrams to troubleshoot issues. Skilled at using lab equipment like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power supplies, clamp meters, and multimeters. Ability to debug and isolate problems at both the hardware and firmware level during product development and manufacturing. Hands-on experience with version control systems like Git. Proficiency in Microsoft Office tools (Excel, Word, PowerPoint) for documentation and reporting. Working knowledge of ROS 1 or ROS 2 is a strong advantage. Exposure to safety standards related to robotics (ISO 13849, ISO 3691) is a plus but not mandatory. Strong problem-solving mindset and the ability to debug issues independently. Good written and verbal communication skills to work effectively with cross-functional teams. *Benefits: * Competitive salary Comprehensive health benefits package Hustle of a young startup – always something to do and something to improve Opportunities for professional development and growth into management roles Collaborative and inclusive work environment
