Hello guys, welcome back to our blog. This article will be on embedded engineers, the future scope of an embedded engineer, jobs, salary, companies, and skills required to become an embedded engineer.

If you have any electrical, electronics, and computer science doubts, then ask questions. You can also catch me on Instagram – CS Electrical & Electronics.

What is embedded engineering

It is the process of controlling different devices and machines which are different from traditional computers by using software engineering.

Future scope of embedded engineer

Nobody’s technology of the embedded systems is growing fastly in India and within the next five years, it will grow. Everything from water purifiers to fitness gadgets is digital. Usually, people will use what feels easy for them e.g they use a multimeter but not an analog ammeter or voltmeter. This is because reading values in a multimeter will be easier than reading values in an ammeter and voltmeter.

Another thing is energy is a big issue in our country and also in embedded projects. The energy consumed by embedded products is far lesser than by analog devices. So we can conclude that embedded technology will rule the coming days, so everyone can try their hands at this embedded system.

Embedded engineer jobs

01. Embedded Engineer

The salary for this job varies from 1,80,000 to 3,00,000 per annum. The responsibility of an embedded engineer is to design and implement software of embedded devices and systems. You have to integrate and validate new products. To become an embedded engineer, you have to get a degree in computer science, electronics, or electrical engineering.

Also, you should have experienced solid programming of C or C++. You must have excellent knowledge of operating system coding techniques And you should have adequate knowledge to read schematics and datasheets for components, strong documentation, and writing skills.

02. Embedded Designer

To become an embedded designer, you must have worked with projects of microcontrollers with proficiency in the C and C++ programs. You must have worked on software and hardware debugging, and mainly you must have domain knowledge in controlling Motors, pure sine wave inverters, controlling of solar chargers, and IoT systems. The salary for this job varies from 3,00,000 to 7,00,000 per annum.

03. Embedded Software Engineer

To become an embedded software engineer you should be able to design and write the embedded software code according to the specified specifications. And also you have to test this software for scalability and structure. You should be able to fix bugs and you must have the capacity to optimize the system. To enter the embedded software engineering field, you have to get a degree in computer science and other engineering branches. You must have good coding skills in C and C++ and mainly you have to be a critical thinker.

04. Embedded Test Engineer

You should have experience in the field of testing software or software development for electronic control units and you need to get experience with hardware-in-the-loop test benches. You should have knowledge of the vertical bus systems like automotive ethernet, CAN, and k-line. You must be able to execute and evaluate the test cases for various electronic control units. You have to complete a bachelor of engineering in electrical and electronics or telecommunication.

05. Embedded software developer

To become an embedded software developer, you should have a better understanding of computer systems. You have to be perfect in embedded C-like functions, pointers, array, and bitwise operations. And you have to try to understand how the operating system works. If you are good at the above skills then you will be eligible for an embedded software developer.

Why do we need an embedded system?

An Embedded system is a combination of electrical, electronics, and mechanical devices which will be having the dedication functions. This system will be implemented in various electrical and electronic devices which will be used in our daily life. These systems can be a microcontroller or microprocessor-based systems.

The reason why we need an embedded system is supposed to consider that general-purpose computers like PCs are too costly for the majority of products that incorporates some of the forms of this embedded system technology. By using embedded products, we can design a device that will do a particular task. Some example of an embedded system is ATMs, washing machine, remote, digital watch, etc.

Embedded system companies in India

  1. Delphi Automotive PLC (Tamilnadu)
  2. Alten Calsoft labs private limited (Karnataka, Bengaluru)
  3. Mimowaves technology (Karnataka, Bengaluru)
  4. Deep thought system (Kerala)
  5. Elnfochips (Pune)
  6. Dan Foss India (Tamilnadu)
  7. Kalycito InfoTech private limited(Tamilnadu)
  8. Cornet technologies India(Tamilnadu)
