Who you are
We don't require a background in robotics — but we do require deep, hands-on electronics experience.
We're looking for engineers who are self-driven, optimistic, creative, and resourceful. We have no requirement for a background in robotics, but find most success with engineers excited by the domain and looking to apply deep electronics expertise — from motor drives, power electronics, embedded compute, automotive, or aerospace — to robots they can watch move. Our ideal candidate will be open to spending roughly 60% of their time on design (architecture, schematics, layout) and 40% on lab, integration, and manufacturing support (bring-up, debug, vendor and production issues), with flexibility to sway more toward one or the other depending on current projects and team needs.
Skills you'll bring
- Experience: You have a bachelor's or graduate degree in Electrical Engineering (or a related field) and 5+ years designing, building, and testing PCBAs, including designs you've taken through production release
- EE Depth: You have mastery of power electronics (motor drivers and inverter stages, switch-mode supplies, power sequencing and protection), digital electronics (MCUs, FPGAs, Ethernet, USB, SPI/I2C/UART, signal-integrity fundamentals), and analog electronics (op-amps, filters, ADC/DAC signal chains, precision sensing)
- Tool Fluency: You're proficient in Altium Designer (or similar EDA tools) for schematic capture and multi-layer layout, including constraint-driven routing for high-speed and high-current designs
- Debugging Mastery: You know how to attack a hardware problem with a scope, logic/protocol analyzer, and bench instruments, document what you find, and converge on a fix quickly
- Clarity of Communication: You excel in written and verbal communication — clear design documentation, crisp trade studies, and design reviews that make your peers better
- Impact Driven: You relentlessly seek user impact and value execution over technical idealism; a reliable, manufacturable board that ships beats an elegant one that never leaves the lab
- Proactive Simplicity: You prioritize simplicity, reliability, and velocity, and proactively identify opportunities to improve proposed designs or incumbent hardware
- Growth + Optimism: You are excited by new domains and challenges, and eager to pick up new context to accelerate your impact
- Excelling in Ambitious Environments: You excel in dynamic and ambitious environments, working with a diverse group of individuals and backgrounds
