Junior IoT Engineer

📍 Indore 🏷️ Embedded Systems & Hardware 💰 ₹56,500 / month

About the Role

Vijay Nagar in Indore has a Junior IoT Engineer opening, full time, on site, with an embedded systems team building connected hardware products. Six months of experience is the expectation, enough to have already worked with real sensors and connectivity protocols in some capacity, even outside a full-time job.

A Day in This Job

The work covers designing and testing firmware for hardware devices, debugging circuit and system-level issues, and documenting technical specifications. IoT work adds a networking and cloud layer on top of typical embedded work, which means a bug can originate in the sensor, the firmware, the connectivity layer, or the cloud pipeline receiving the data, and figuring out which one takes real systematic thinking.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Support firmware design and testing for connected IoT devices
  • Debug circuit and system-level issues under senior engineer guidance
  • Document technical specifications for hardware and firmware components
  • Support cloud integration work for sensor data pipelines

Qualifications

A bachelor's degree in electronics, electrical engineering, or a related field is expected, along with practical experience with circuit design, embedded programming, or hardware prototyping, even at a student project level. The team is open to candidates whose hands-on experience came from personal or academic projects rather than a prior job.

Skills That Matter

  • IoT protocols, particularly MQTT
  • Embedded systems fundamentals
  • Cloud integration basics for sensor data
  • Sensor selection and calibration

Good to Have

Any home project involving a microcontroller and a sensor, basic Python for cloud-side data processing, and genuine curiosity about why a sensor reading might be wrong before assuming the code is at fault.

Why This Role

Vijay Nagar's expanding tech scene in Indore has attracted a handful of hardware-focused teams alongside its larger software services presence, and this team's connected products span both consumer and industrial applications, giving a junior engineer exposure to different reliability standards depending on the project. Naukri Mitra has listed a few embedded roles from this employer, and past interns describe the mentorship as genuinely hands-on rather than purely observational.

The Interview Process

Interviews include a technical round on embedded fundamentals and a discussion of any hands-on IoT or hardware project from your background. Candidates who can speak concretely about a specific project, even a small one, tend to interview better than those speaking only in general terms.

Benefits

  • Health insurance for the employee
  • Paid time off
  • Provident fund contributions
  • Relocation assistance and accommodation support for candidates moving to Indore

Location & Pay

This role is based at Vijay Nagar, Indore, pin code 452010, five days a week on site. Pay is up to ₹56,500 a month. The team hopes to fill this seat within four to five weeks.
