Senior Electrical Engineer

What they're looking for

A Senior Electrical Engineer with 5+ years of experience to own electrical system integration across robotics platforms. You will be the go-to expert for power electronics, EMC and sensor integration, bridging the gap between software/firmware and physical motion control. You should be comfortable making decisions with incomplete requirements and communicating tradeoffs across multiple disciplines.

What you'll do

• Design and validate motor driver circuits, power electronics and sensor electronics systems for robot platforms
• Define grounding, shielding, filtering and cable strategies across the robot and drive EMC risk mitigation early in the design cycle
• Integrate sensor data (IMUs, encoders, hall sensors, cameras) at the PCB level
• Debug EMC and hardware issues hands-on in the lab using scopes, spectrum analyzers and other test equipment
• Make system-level tradeoffs across performance, cost, reliability, manufacturability and schedule while partnering with EE, ME, firmware and controls teams

Key requirements

• 5+ years of experience
• BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics or a related field, with hands-on experience taking electrical hardware from concept through production
• Strong expertise in EMC/EMI design, debugging, grounding, shielding, filtering and signal/power integrity
• Proficiency in power electronics design: motor drives, switching power supplies, high-current DC systems and battery management
• Strong PCB design and layout skills with a system-level approach to solving EMC problems
