Job Description
About the Role

Join a robotics engineering team building intelligent systems for real-world applications. As a hands-on electrical engineer, you will own system integration across robotic platforms, connecting power, sensing, and controls to support reliable physical motion.

What You'll Do
  • Design and validate motor drivers, power electronics, and sensor electronics for robotic platforms.
  • Define grounding, shielding, filtering, and cable strategies, and address EMC risks early in the design cycle.
  • Integrate IMUs, encoders, hall sensors, cameras, and related interfaces at the PCB and system levels.
  • Debug electrical and EMC issues in the lab using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, LISNs, probes, and other test equipment.
  • Own hardware through schematic design, PCB layout, bring-up, validation, and production.
  • Work with electrical, mechanical, firmware, and controls teams to balance performance, cost, reliability, manufacturability, and schedule.
What We're Looking For
  • Five or more years of hands-on electrical engineering experience, with a background in robotics or related motor-driven systems.
  • A BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, or a related field.
  • Experience taking complex electromechanical hardware from concept through production.
  • Strong EMC/EMI design and debugging skills, including grounding, shielding, filtering, and signal and power integrity.
  • Experience designing motor drives, switching power supplies, high-current DC systems, and battery management systems.
  • Strong PCB design and layout skills, with experience across high-speed digital, analog sensing, and power on the same system.
  • Familiarity with sensor integration and interfaces such as CAN, Ethernet, USB, SPI, I2C, and RS-485.
  • A hands-on, adaptable approach to working through ambiguity and communicating technical tradeoffs across disciplines.
