Senior Electrical Design Engineer

Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we’re growing the team to take it even further. About The Role As a Senior Electrical Engineer on the Core Platform team in Boston, you’ll design and develop the electrical systems that bring advanced humanoid robots to life. This is a hands‑on role where you’ll work across the full spectrum of robotics electrical engineering—from electrical system designs, electromechanical integrations, PCB layouts, firmware and device programming, to hands‑on debugging in the lab. Your work will span from small test systems to fully integrated prototype robots, and provide you with a unique opportunity to have a big impact. What You’ll Do Design Electrical Systems for Robotics: Develop electrical systems that power and control Humanoid’s advanced robots, with a focus on sensors, compute architecture, and power systems. Conduct Circuit Analysis and Debugging: Use strong circuit analysis fundamentals to review electrical designs, conduct failure analysis, and troubleshoot complex electrical systems. PCB Design and Schematic Capture: Create detailed schematics and PCB layouts using Altium, ensuring the designs meet the performance, reliability, and manufacturability standards required for robotics. Develop Embedded Firmware: Write firmware in C and HDL to program microcontrollers, DSPs, and FPGAs, testing and refining embedded designs to ensure optimal performance. Leverage Linux for Robotics: Utilize your knowledge of command‑line Linux to configure networks, run software, and interface with robots for testing and validation. Hands‑On Lab Work: Use a variety of lab equipment, including oscilloscopes, DMMs, power supplies, programmable loads, and spectrum analyzers, to validate designs and solve complex electrical engineering challenges. Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with mechanical engineers, software developers, and other team members to integrate electrical systems with robotics hardware, ensuring seamless operation and performance. What We're Looking For Experience with high‑speed data technologies such as PCIE, Ethernet, EtherCAT and/or other communication protocols in PCB‑based devices and systems. Experience developing power regulation and distribution systems, including particular expertise with short‑circuit protection systems, switching power supplies, and creative power management technologies. Proficiency with PCB design tools (e.g., Altium) for schematic capture and layout. Familiarity with embedded programming, including C, HDL, and other relevant languages for microcontrollers, DSPs, and FPGAs. Working knowledge of circuit simulation, analysis, and debugging techniques, including the use of oscilloscopes, power supplies, and spectrum analyzers. Experience with Python, C++, LabView, or MATLAB for automation and testing. Knowledge of SolidWorks or similar mechanical CAD tools. Familiarity with Verilog or VHDL for hardware design and simulation. Experience in building Linux kernels and modifying or writing device drivers. Please note: few people will check every single box. If you’ve got solid electrical engineering fundamentals and strengths in some of these areas, we’d love to hear from you! What We Offer Comprehensive health coverage for US‑based employees, including fully paid medical, dental, and vision insurance, with virtual care and employee assistance resources. Meaningful time off to rest and recharge: 23 days of PTO (accrued), separate sick leave, and paid company holidays. 401(k) retirement plan with employer match. Equity included–we believe builders should share in what they build. Free daily catered lunch, snacks, and drinks in‑office. Collaboration with top‑tier engineers, researchers, and product experts in AI and robotics. Freedom to influence the product and own key initiatives. For this role in Massachusetts, the expected base salary range is $160K–$215K USD per year; your placement in that range depends on how your experience maps to our internal leveling. #J-18808-Ljbffr Groupe-Ebra-1
