The role
A Senior Robotics Engineer position is open in MIHAN, Nagpur. It's full-time, on-site, and pays up to ₹177,500 a month. The work sits at the intersection of embedded systems and robotics, building and debugging the hardware and firmware that actually move things.
What the job involves
- Design and test firmware for hardware devices from early prototype through production
- Debug circuit and system-level issues when hardware doesn't behave the way the schematic says it should
- Document technical specifications clearly enough that another engineer can pick up the work without a walkthrough
A good chunk of the job is troubleshooting something that worked fine on the bench and then stopped working once it hit the field, and figuring out why.
Skills needed
- Robotics programming
- Control systems
- Sensors and actuators
- C++ or Python
Beyond the core list, familiarity with ROS, PCB design tools like Altium, or real-time operating systems would all be relevant and worth mentioning on an application, even without direct project experience in every one.
Background expected
A bachelor's degree is required, most commonly in electronics or electrical engineering, though a closely related engineering background is also acceptable. Seven years of hands-on experience is expected, ideally including real circuit design, embedded programming, or hardware prototyping rather than purely theoretical or simulation-based work. Comfort with industry-standard hardware design tools is assumed at this level.
Where this sits
MIHAN has become something of a hub for hardware and aerospace-adjacent engineering work in Nagpur, and Naukri Mitra has seen a steady stream of robotics engineer jobs in the area over the past year. This particular team is small enough that a senior engineer will be expected to own designs end-to-end rather than hand off pieces to specialists.
Compensation and benefits
Pay runs up to ₹177,500 monthly. The role includes health insurance, paid time off, and performance-linked bonuses. Since the position is strictly on-site, relocation assistance and accommodation support are part of the offer for anyone moving to Nagpur, which is worth considering before weighing it against other robotics engineer jobs near me that might be remote or hybrid.
Applying
A resume should walk through specific hardware projects: what was built, what role the applicant played in the design, and how issues in the field or on the bench got resolved. Interviews typically include a technical discussion around a past debugging problem, followed by a conversation with the hiring manager about the team's current projects. The process usually wraps up within three weeks.
