3. Implement industrial communication protocols, including Modbus, HART, Foundation Fieldbus, PROFIBUS, OPC, FDT 1.2, FDT 2.0, and FDI, as applicable.
4. Develop automated test equipment (ATE), functional end-of-line test benches, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) systems.
5. Develop, test, and debug software code using contemporary tools and techniques.
6. Support the preparation of design documents, artifacts, and work products.
7. Work across all phases of the software development lifecycle.
8. Work independently with minimal supervision while collaborating with senior-level engineers who provide guidance on assigned tasks.
9. Continually update technical knowledge and skills.
Educational Qualification & Experience:
1. Bachelor’s degree in electrical and Electronics Engineering, Mechatronics, Electronics and Communication Engineering, or Instrumentation Technology.
