• Build prototypes and production runs using pick-and-place, laser cutting, CNC, and other in-house equipment
• Design hardware and firmware that meets ASME A17.1, UL, ADA, FCC, and cybersecurity requirements
• Apply secure design practices to build reliable products for demanding elevator environments
• Work closely with electrical, software, and materials engineers on integrated solutions
• Troubleshoot customer technical issues and support products in the field
• Use generative AI tools to speed up schematic design, firmware development, simulation, and testing

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical, Electronics, Computer, or Mechatronics/Robotics Engineering, Electronics Engineering Technology, or a related field
