Our San Francisco Bay Area - based AI Robotics Startup Client is hiring a Senior Electrical/Hardware Engineer to own electrical/hardware system integration across their cutting-edge robotics platforms. You'll be the go-to expert for power electronics, EMC, and sensor integration, bridging the gap between software/firmware and physical motion control as we build the world's first general-purpose robotic intelligence.
Responsibilities :
Develop, test, and validate power and sensor electronics systems.
Design and validate motor driver circuits and power electronics systems.
Integrate and fuse sensor data, including IMUs, encoders, hall sensors, and temperature sensors at the PCB level.
Define grounding, bonding, shielding, filtering, and cable strategies across the robot.
Identify EMC risks early and drive practical mitigations before they become late-stage issues.
Debug EMC and hardware issues using scopes, spectrum analyzers, probes, LISNs, network analyzers, and other lab equipment.
Make system-level tradeoffs across performance, risk, cost, schedule, and manufacturability.
Partner across EE, ME, firmware, controls, systems, manufacturing, and external labs and consultants.
Document design processes and contribute to hardware best practices.
Requirements :
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
5+ years of working experience with robotics, mechatronics, power electronics, EMC/EMI design, and debugging of complex hardware.
Proficiency in power electronics design — motor drives, switching power supplies, high-current DC systems, and battery management.
Strong PCB design and layout skills with a system-level approach to EMC problems.
Familiarity with sensor integration (IMUs, encoders, hall sensors) and protocols (CAN, Ethernet, SPI, I2C, RS-485).
Immigration/Visa Requirements :
All candidates MUST reside in the San Francisco Bay/Silicon Valley Area.
Open to Visa transfers (e.g. OPT, H1B transfers)
