HireSetu's note

The two filters that matter

C and C++ at a level where you can write and read threaded code without help, plus operating system fundamentals: processes, threads, scheduling, inter-process communication. VxWorks, Linux and QNX are named, and the work runs on at least one of them. Everything else on the skills list, including the 1553, CAN, NMEA and ModBus buses, is domain knowledge you can pick up if you have done serial or Ethernet work in a college project. Don't treat the RTOS part as optional because you are comfortable on Linux.

A systems role wearing a generic title

This is embedded development for military land platforms. The code talks to hardware over serial lines, Ethernet and field buses, and a large share of the job is building diagnostics and test code, then using them to work out why a node stopped responding or a link dropped packets. Multi-threaded code, inter-process communication and distributed nodes are the daily material. If every project you have built lives in a browser or on a phone, the ramp here will be steep.

Mumbai, and the customer-site part

Land systems work happens in labs and test yards, physically close to the hardware. Issues reported from customer sites are part of the role, which can mean travel, remote troubleshooting or being reachable during trials. Ask how much site support is expected in the first year. Defence programmes also come with vetting and documentation, so build that into the joining timeline.

Ordering the resume for this one

Lead with C and C++, then a line on whichever RTOS you have touched, even FreeRTOS on a microcontroller board. Next, one project described in systems terms: threads, shared memory, sockets, or a serial or CAN link between two boards, with what broke and how you traced it. Bus names like MIL-STD-1553, ModBus and NMEA earn a line only if you have actually used them. Jira belongs in a tools section at the bottom. At 0 to 2 years, a final-year systems project carries more weight than a long list of languages.
