Your role involves partnering with architecture and product management teams to define system requirements and then owning full PCB and electrical system design, ensuring manufacturability and testability while considering size, weight, power, and electromagnetic compatibility constraints. You will collaborate closely with mechanical engineers on high-power component integration and troubleshoot existing hardware to enhance reliability. Essential skills include extensive experience in digital and analog electronics design, proficiency in scripting languages like Python or Matlab, and the ability to develop comprehensive documentation for all stages of product development. This role demands a deep understanding of switch mode power supply design and full stack HLOS application troubleshooting down to hardware components.

What you'll do

  • Own and lead electrical integration activities for product development.
  • Design and validate electronics for embedded compute and power systems.
  • Optimize high-power component selection, design, and integration with mechanical engineers.
  • Ensure manufacturability and testability in the design of PCBs and electrical systems.
  • Troubleshoot hardware issues to identify root causes and implement improvements.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum 8+ years of professional experience in electrical engineering.
  • Design digital and analog electronics from concept to production-ready product.
  • Troubleshoot hardware issues, identify root causes, and implement improvements.
  • Develop comprehensive documentation for design requirements and test coverage.
  • Complete full cycle PCB design including layout, testing, validation, and integration.
