Electrical Engineer

About the Role

This hands-on Electrical Engineer role sits at the core of a small, fast-moving robotics hardware team building ground robots designed for the most demanding environments — hazmat, emergency response, industrial inspection, and defense. You'll own the electrical backbone of these systems end-to-end, working closely with mechanical and software engineers to deliver field-ready, high-reliability platforms.

What You'll Do

• Design analog and digital circuits including power regulation, signal conditioning, and sensor interfaces.

• Own the full PCB development lifecycle: schematic capture, layout, and bring-up.

• Define and maintain wiring diagrams, harnessing, grounding, and EMI/EMC strategies for robotic systems.

• Design and fabricate cable harnesses and enclosures engineered for field reliability.

• Support sensor selection and integration across thermal, gas, visual, RF, and related modalities.

• Run SPICE simulations for analog validation, noise analysis, and circuit stability.

• Execute and interpret tests for thermal load, EMI, and ruggedness.

• Troubleshoot and debug system-level electrical issues across hardware, software, and mechanical boundaries.

• Contribute to design reviews, documentation, and internal electrical standards.

• Engage directly with end users as needed to inform engineering direction.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of hands-on electrical design experience for robotics or embedded systems.

• Proven experience with analog and digital circuits, power distribution, and sensor integration on robotic platforms.

• Proficiency with schematic capture and PCB layout in Altium, KiCad, or Eagle .

• Experience designing robot bus and wiring harness systems, including harness fabrication.

• Solid background in thermal, EMI, and vibration testing and debugging.

• Background in aerospace, defense, industrial, or other safety-critical hardware environments is a strong plus.

• Comfortable working across hardware, software, and mechanical disciplines in a small team.
