Junior Robotics Engineer

📍 Delhi 🏷️ Embedded Systems & Hardware 💰 ₹56,500 / month
A Junior Robotics Engineer position is open in Nehru Place, Delhi, on-site and full-time. It's built for someone very early in their career, with pay set at INR 56,500 a month, and the company has been explicit that they want freshers and near-freshers in the mix for this one, not just experienced hires.

What's expected coming in

The minimum education is a four-year degree, and the company wants that background rooted in electronics or electrical engineering, since much of the work touches circuits and signal-level thinking that a general CS degree doesn't always cover. On the experience side, they're asking for around three months of practical, hands-on exposure, which could come from an internship, a college robotics project, or a hardware hackathon, not necessarily a full-time job history. Practical exposure matters more than a polished resume here. Someone who built a line-following robot for a college competition, or debugged a motor driver circuit that kept overheating during a personal project, is exactly the kind of background the hiring manager wants to see, even without formal work experience attached to it.

Core responsibilities

  • Designing and testing firmware that runs on robotic hardware, from motor control logic to sensor reading routines
  • Debugging circuit-level and system-level issues when a robot isn't behaving the way its code says it should
  • Documenting technical specifications clearly enough that a teammate can understand a design decision without asking the original engineer
  • Working with sensors and actuators directly, calibrating them and troubleshooting when their readings drift, or actuators respond inconsistently
A recent internal example: a robotic arm was overshooting its target position by a small but consistent margin, and it turned out the encoder feedback had a slight calibration offset nobody had caught during initial setup. That kind of small-but-persistent error is common in robotics work, and tracking it down usually takes more patience than technical depth, at least at the junior level.

Skills needed

Must-haves include robotics programming fundamentals, a working understanding of control systems (even basic PID-level knowledge counts), hands-on comfort with sensors and actuators, and proficiency in either C++ or Python, whichever the candidate is stronger in.

Nice to have

Experience with ROS (Robot Operating System) is a real plus, though the team is happy to train someone if their fundamentals are strong. Some exposure to CAD tools like SolidWorks or Fusion 360 helps when a robotics engineer needs to understand mechanical constraints, not just the electronics side. Familiarity with microcontroller platforms like Arduino or STM32 also translates well to the embedded work this role involves.

Pay and benefits

Base salary is INR 56,500 a month. The role comes with health insurance, paid time off, and provident fund contributions, standard for junior full-time embedded systems roles at this level. Because it's on-site, employees also get access to the office cafeteria and either a cab facility or a commute allowance depending on where they're traveling from.

Team and location

This posting is managed through Naukri Mitra for a hardware-focused team based in Nehru Place, a part of Delhi with a fairly steady electronics and hardware industry presence for decades, making it a practical spot for someone building a robotics career. The team is small enough that a junior engineer gets hands-on time with actual hardware early, rather than spending months on documentation or support tickets before touching a real build. Candidates should come prepared to talk through a project they've built, even an unfinished or imperfect one, since that often says more than a transcript full of good grades. Recent graduates, current final-year students close to finishing, and anyone with a few months of relevant hands-on work are all encouraged to apply, and the team is reviewing applications on a rolling basis.
