About The Role

As an Electrical Design Engineer on the Core Platform team, 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—in particular, sensor integration to embedded firmware development and PCB design. You’ll collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to create reliable, high-performance electrical solutions that enable our robots to sense, compute, and operate in complex environments.

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.

We’re Looking For:

BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field. Experience with high-speed data technologies such as PCIE, MIPI, Ethernet and/or other communication protocols in PCB-based devices and systems. Experience with sensor integration in embedded systems Proficiency with PCB design tools (e.g., Altium) for schematic capture and layout. Familiarity with embedded programming, including C, HDL, and other relevant 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.
