EMI/EMC Design Engineer

Job Role: EMI/EMC Design Engineer
Location: Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Mumbai
Job Category: Project Research Staff
About the Project:
The Government-funded project focuses on the development and demonstration of drone and allied technologies. With applications spanning various sectors, the initiative leverages advanced technologies and infrastructure. It aims to foster strong industry-academia collaborations to address real-world challenges and drive innovation.
Qualification and Key Skills Required:
PhD with relevant experience OR
MTech / ME or equivalent degree with relevant experience OR
BTech / BE or equivalent degree with relevant experience
Strong knowledge of electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) principles, and mitigation techniques, especially in complex embedded systems.
Familiarity with aerospace EMI/EMC standards (IEC 61000/IS 14700, applicable MIL standards, CISPR, and FCC regulations)
Expertise in electromagnetic simulation and modeling tools (CST, HFSS, Ansys)
Proficiency in using EMI/EMC test equipment like spectrum analyzers, EMI receivers, oscilloscopes, near-field probes, and EMI chambers for radiated and conducted emissions and immunity testing.
Experience in implementing EMI shielding, grounding, filtering, cable shielding, PCB layout optimization, and enclosure design to reduce EMI in sensitive electronic assemblies.
Knowledge of drone-specific electronics is desired.
Roles and Responsibilities:
Coordinate EMI/EMC design, modeling, and simulation activities for UAV electronic subsystems to ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations
Analyze electromagnetic coupling, emission, and susceptibility mechanisms in complex embedded systems to identify potential vulnerabilities
Collaborate with hardware teams to provide design recommendations on PCB layout, grounding, shielding, filtering, and enclosure optimization to minimize EMI impact
Provide guidance on optimal placement and routing of sensitive electronics like GPS and flight controllers in drone architectures to minimize electromagnetic interference
Use electromagnetic simulation and analysis software to predict EMI performance early in the design phase and validate mitigation measures
Prepare comprehensive EMI/EMC documentation including test procedures, compliance reports, and certification submissions to meet regulatory requirements
Any other work assigned as per requirement
