Electrical Engineer

Electrical EngineerThe future of defense will be decided by those who field intelligent machines at scale. At Scout AI, we're developing Fury, the first robotic foundation model for defense, to give U.S. forces overwhelming, adaptable, and autonomous power across every domain. Fury enables human operators to command fleets of robots through natural language, and empowers those machines to sense, decide, and act together as one. This mission will ask everything of us: urgency, precision, and relentless work.The RoleWe're looking for an Electrical Engineer who is excited about working on a variety of different projects, designing, bringing up and validating electronics for a range of vehicle platforms. This role will include a mix of rapid prototyping electronics for standing up new platforms and longer term production designs for better manufacturability, better performance, smaller form factor and ease of integration.You'll work with experienced engineers across hardware, robotics, and AI to ensure sensor data is accurate, stable, and production-ready. We're a startup. You'll be moving fast, context-switching daily, and helping define the culture and process as we go. This is a rare opportunity to come in early and architect the future of defense.ResponsibilitiesDesign, bring up, and implement PCBAsDefine system electrical architectureWork closely with mechanical engineers to effectively integrate electronics into systemsWork closely with software and firmware engineers to ensure ease of bring up and implementationProcure electrical components, PCBs, and PCBAsAssemble and rework PCBAs and basic wiring harnessesWork with voltage regulators, microcontrollers, compute SoMs, mixed and high speed signalsTroubleshoot integration issues with software and mechanical engineersContribute to building the team and shaping the road mapQualifications3+ years of experience designing, testing and ramping up manufacturing of PCBAsBachelor's Degree in Electrical EngineeringStrong fundamentals in schematic capture, layout and circuit designStrong skills with PCBA design tools such as Altium DesignerStrong skills with electronic test equipment (Oscilloscopes, Bench Supplies, DMM, etc.)Experience working with hardware interfaces like SPI, I2C, or UART and high speed interfaces such as PCIe, MIPI CSIStrong debugging mindset and attention to detailInterest in robotics, embedded systems, or hardware-adjacent softwareMust be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export controlled information or facilitiesNice to have: PCBA manufacturing experience (hand assembly, rework, SMT/through hole)Nice to have: Experience with producing PCBAs in large quantitiesNice to have: Experience with high rate electrical testNice to have: Firmware development/basic MCU bring up experience (C or C++)Why Join ScoutWork on the world's most important frontier, ensuring U.S. and allied dominance in the age of intelligent machinesBe a core part of a team building the first defense-specific robotic foundation modelCollaborate with some of the top engineers in autonomy, AI, and national securitySee your work deployed on real systemsHelp define the future of intelligent defense systemsBacked by Draper Associates, Booz Allen Ventures, and other top investorsBenefitsCompetitive base salary and bonusMeaningful equityPremium medical, dental, and vision plans with $0 paycheck contributionCompetitive PTO and company holiday calendarUnlimited AI tokensCatered lunch daily and fully stocked kitchenEV chargingRelocation assistance (depending on role eligibility)The stated salary range below represents an estimated base pay only and reflects consideration of multiple compensation factors.
