Ltd. is an India-based design-and-build engineering company serving defense programs and the global electronics-repair industry from its factory in Delhi. The company is a manufacturer and supplier on Indian defense programs, working with organizations such as the Indian Army, Indian Navy, Indian Air Force, DRDO, BEL, BHEL, BDL, HAL, and AVNL. With fully in-house capabilities from metal machining and PCB design to firmware and automation, V D Intellisys can take defense briefs from concept to qualified hardware under one roof. The company is recognized as India’s first manufacturer of several advanced electronics-repair machines and serves more than 2,000 LCD/TFT service centers across 29 countries. Founded in 2009 by engineers from IIT BHU and IIT Kharagpur, V D Intellisys offers a highly technical, hands-on environment for engineering professionals.

Location: Delhi (on-site, R&D)Experience: 10+ years in embedded systems, with at least 3 years in an architect or technical-lead roleEmployment: Full-timeAbout the RoleYou will own the embedded architecture across our hardware programmes: UAV/drone platforms, SMT (pick-and-place) machines, and an upcoming robotics programme.

You will set the technical direction, lead a cross-functional team of embedded and software engineers, and take products from R&D prototype to production.Key Responsibilities

• Define the system architecture for each programme: compute, sensors, actuators, power and communication.
• Set common hardware and firmware platforms so that the programmes can reuse modules.
• Lead firmware design on MCUs and SoCs (STM32, ARM Cortex-M/A, NVIDIA Jetson or similar), using RTOS and embedded Linux.
• Supervise flight control, motor control, motion control and sensor-fusion work, including PX4/ArduPilot, BLDC/servo drives and IMU/GNSS/vision.
• Integrate imaging and edge-AI payloads with the control systems.
• Own design reviews, HW–SW interface specs, test strategy and HIL/SIL setups.
• Drive DFM, reliability, EMI/EMC and certification readiness (DGCA drone rules where applicable).
• Mentor engineers, plan roadmaps and coordinate with vendors and component suppliers.Must Have
• Strong C/C++. Deep knowledge of RTOS (FreeRTOS/Zephyr/NuttX) and embedded Linux (Yocto/Buildroot).
• Hands-on experience with control systems: PID, motor control, kinematics or flight dynamics.
• Peripheral and bus knowledge: CAN, UART, SPI, I2C, Ethernet, USB and MAVLink/ROS 2.
• Can read schematics and work closely with PCB designers.
• A track record of taking at least one embedded product from concept to production.Good to Have
• UAV, robotics or industrial automation background.
• Experience with ROS 2, computer vision, thermal/EO imaging or edge AI (TensorRT, OpenCV).
• Knowledge of functional safety or security (secure boot, OTA).Why Join UsYou will build indigenous drone, automation and robotics platforms from the ground up. You get real architectural ownership, a hands-on R&D culture and direct work with leadership.How to ApplySend your CV to amar@vdmachines.com with the subject line “Embedded Systems Architect”. | www.vdintellisys.com
