Job Summary

Build the Electrical Systems Behind the Next Generation of Robotics

Were partnering with a high-growth robotics AI company building technology designed to fundamentally change how robots operate across real-world environments.

This is an opportunity for a hands-on Senior Electrical Engineer to take ownership of electrical system integration across advanced robotic platforms working across power electronics motor drivers sensors PCB-level systems EMC/EMI grounding shielding and signal integrity.

Youll work at the intersection of electrical hardware firmware controls mechanical engineering and robotics helping take complex electrical systems from concept through validation and production.

What Youll Do

  • Develop test and validate power and sensor electronics systems

  • Design and validate motor driver circuits and power electronics

  • Integrate sensors including IMUs encoders Hall sensors and temperature sensors at the PCB level

  • Define grounding bonding shielding filtering and cable strategies

  • Identify EMC risks early and develop practical mitigation strategies

  • Debug EMC and hardware issues using oscilloscopes spectrum analyzers probes LISNs network analyzers and other lab equipment

  • Make system-level tradeoffs across performance reliability cost schedule and manufacturability

  • Partner with electrical mechanical firmware controls systems and manufacturing teams

  • Work with external laboratories and consultants when required

  • Establish documentation and contribute to hardware engineering best practices

What Were Looking For

  • Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering Robotics Mechatronics or a related discipline

  • Hands-on experience taking electrical hardware from concept through validation and production

  • Strong experience with EMC/EMI design debugging and testing

  • Strong knowledge of grounding shielding filtering signal integrity and power integrity

  • Experience with power electronics motor drives switching power high-current DC systems and/or battery management

  • Experience with PCB design and layout

  • Experience integrating sensors such as IMUs encoders and Hall sensors

  • Comfortable debugging hardware directly in the lab

  • Strong system-level engineering judgment

  • Ability to make practical tradeoffs when requirements are changing or incomplete

  • Strong cross-functional communication and collaboration skills

If you enjoy working on difficult hardware problems where the answer isnt always obvious and want your work to directly influence the performance of next-generation robots this could be an exceptional opportunity.
