PhonePe
About this role
Most of this board is cloud and backend work, so this one stands out: it is embedded firmware at
PhonePe, for the physical devices merchants actually use. The products are the PhonePe smart speaker
that announces payments, DQR devices and printers. You design, build and test firmware for those
devices, work with hardware engineers to define firmware requirements and specifications, and handle
device integration end to end. The skills named are device drivers, low level hardware interfaces,
SoC bring up, micro controllers and firmware debugging, in a consumer electronics or IoT context.
PhonePe is unusual in publishing years right in the title. Apply if you are an embedded engineer who
wants consumer scale, because these devices sit in millions of Indian shops.

Who this is for
Requirements. 5 to 7 years, stated in the job title itself. Proven experience in firmware development
for embedded systems, preferably in consumer electronics or IoT devices. Experience with hardware and
software integration, working closely with hardware teams to define firmware requirements. Experience
with device drivers, low level hardware interfaces and firmware debugging techniques. Experience with
SoC bring up and micro controllers.
Responsibilities. Work with cross functional teams including hardware engineers, software developers
and product managers to define firmware requirements and specifications for the smart speaker and
associated devices. Design, develop and test firmware solutions for the smart speaker, ensuring
performance, reliability and compatibility. Implement firmware features to support the smart speaker
and other devices in the PhonePe ecosystem.
The products, so you know what you would be working on. The PhonePe smart speaker is the device that
announces payment confirmations aloud in shops, alongside DQR devices and printers. This is hardware
that runs in ordinary retail environments, so reliability and cost constraints are real rather than
theoretical.
Location and terms. Bangalore, at the Salarpuria Softzone office. The requisition type is FTE
Regular.
Who this is for. An embedded or firmware engineer with five to seven years. This is a rare posting on
a board that is otherwise dominated by cloud, backend and data roles, so if firmware is your field it
is worth a look precisely because the competition from this list's usual readership will be thin.
Consumer electronics or IoT background is preferred rather than required, so adjacent embedded
experience should still get a hearing.
