What you will do

• Own the design and validation of PCBAs for motor controllers, power distribution, compute, camera, battery management, and sensing systems from concept through production release.
• Drive architecture, component selection, requirements definition, trade studies, and technical strategy for robot electronics.
• Perform schematic capture, multilayer PCB layout, board bring-up, test planning, lab debugging, and root-cause analysis.
• Lead design reviews and maintain component libraries, release processes, and design checklists.
• Work with PCB fabrication and assembly vendors, incorporating DFM/DFA feedback and resolving production issues.
• Mentor associate and mid-level engineers and collaborate with Mechanical, Software, and Functional Safety engineering.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or graduate degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field, with 5+ years of experience designing, building, and testing PCBAs through production release.
• Deep knowledge of power electronics, including motor drivers, inverter stages, switch-mode supplies, power sequencing, and protection.
• Strong digital and analog electronics expertise, including MCUs, FPGAs, Ethernet, USB, SPI, I2C, UART, op-amps, filters, ADC/DAC chains, and precision sensing.
• Proficiency with Altium Designer or similar EDA tools for schematic capture and constraint-driven, multilayer PCB layout.
• Ability to debug hardware using oscilloscopes, logic or protocol analyzers, and bench instruments.
• Clear technical communication, design documentation, trade studies, design reviews, and effective collaboration in a dynamic environment.

Nice to have

• High-speed interfaces and power delivery, including PCIe, USB3/4, MIPI, GMSL, and 10G Ethernet, with signal- and power-integrity knowledge.
• Camera electronics, image sensors, dense or flexible board technologies, and motor control.
• Embedded programming for DSPs, MCUs, and FPGAs, plus LTspice, Python, and test automation.
• EMC/EMI compliance, industrial fieldbuses, safety-rated electronics, and relevant functional-safety standards.
• Prototype-to-volume manufacturing experience, including NPI, DFM/DFT, test fixtures, and yield improvement.

Culture & Benefits

• Hands-on work in a fully equipped electronics lab with production robots and an adjacent manufacturing floor.
• Approximately 60% design work and 40% lab, integration, and manufacturing support, with flexibility based on project needs.
• Paid time off, medical, dental, and vision insurance.
• Life and disability insurance, 401(k), and employee stock options for regular full-time employees.
