We are seeking an Electrical Design Engineer to develop the embedded electronics that power our next-generation autonomous robotic systems. This role combines electrical design, PCB development, embedded firmware, and system integration, with responsibility for designing reliable hardware and real-time software that meet demanding military-grade performance requirements. Working closely with mechanical and software engineers, you will develop power electronics, embedded control systems, and PCB designs while supporting hardware bring-up, validation, and optimization from concept through production.
Responsibilities:
Design electrical schematics and multi-layer PCBs for embedded control, power management, motor drives, and sensor interfaces.
Develop embedded software in C++ and Python for real-time robotic control.
Perform circuit simulation, signal integrity, thermal, and EMC analysis to optimize design performance.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate electrical, mechanical, and software systems.
Lead PCB development using Altium Designer, OrCAD, or Eagle, following best practices for manufacturability and reliability.
Support hardware bring-up, testing, debugging, and validation in both laboratory and field environments.
Optimize hardware and firmware for performance, power consumption, and system reliability.
Create and maintain engineering documentation, including schematics, layouts, test procedures, and design revisions.
Qualifications:
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
Experience designing microcontroller-based embedded systems, including power conversion and motor control.
Proficiency with Altium Designer, OrCAD, Eagle, or similar PCB design tools.
Experience using simulation tools such as SPICE or ANSYS Electronics.
Strong understanding of electromechanical system integration, including sensors, actuators, and motors.
Hands-on experience with hardware testing, validation, and debugging using standard lab equipment.
Strong embedded software development skills in C++, with Python for scripting and automation.
Experience developing software for real-time robotic or autonomous systems.
Familiarity integrating embedded software with sensors, actuators, and control hardware.
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience with thermal management for high-power electronics.
Familiarity with Embedded Linux and RTOS environments.
Knowledge of communication protocols including CAN, UART, I²C, TCP/IP, and UDP.
Experience optimizing low-latency, high-performance embedded systems with strict power and computational constraints.
