About the Role

We're seeking a hands-on Electrical Design Engineers to design, build, and scale complex electrical systems. In this role, you will own the full design lifecycle-architecting boards, debugging prototypes in the lab, and working directly with manufacturers to bring high-reliability robots to market at scale.

Responsibilities

  • Design and develop complex electrical systems, including power distribution, sensor integration, and motor drive systems.
  • Execute full-cycle PCB development-schematic capture, component selection, multi-layer layout, and manufacturing file generation (Altium, KiCad, or OrCAD).
  • Assemble, test, and debug initial prototypes.
  • Work closely with firmware and mechanical engineers to define connectors, pinouts, and physical constraints.
  • Develop specifications and accelerated test plans to validate the product for its lifetime.
  • Interface with PCB fabricators and component suppliers to ensure timely delivery and DFM.

Qualifications

  • Technical degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
  • 5+ years of experience (or equivalent "hard tech" projects) building complex electromechanical systems and sensors.
  • Deep understanding of DC-DC converters, EMI/EMC mitigation, and standard communication protocols (I2C, SPI, CAN bus, UART).
  • Experience with hardware validation cycles, debug and measurement methods.
  • Experience with wire harnesses, cabling & connectors.
  • Experience designing for volume processes and working with contract manufacturers.
  • You are comfortable with ambiguity, move fast, and have an "engineering curiosity" that drives you to understand how the entire system works, not just your part.
