Full Job Description


About the Role

We are looking for a well-rounded Electrical Engineer who enjoys working in an agile environment. We expect our engineers to be self-motivated, willing, and capable of making decisions based on incomplete information, and to have a get-it-done attitude.

The main line of work will be to build and integrate machine control systems for our custom manufacturing nodes. Our system is built around a multiprocessor architecture, with distinct processors handling networking, general machine control, and specialty controls such as vision and motion. Interconnect selection, prototype cabling, and bring-up firmware are also important aspects of the job.

We emphasize modularity for reuse to speed up subsequent builds of nodes with similar needs.

What You'll Do:
  • Design and build custom electronics for our automated manufacturing systems
  • Integrate third-party electronics
  • Support the building of engineering fixtures
  • Create and maintain component and module libraries for reuse
  • Generate manufacturing data and interact with vendors
  • Work closely with embedded systems, software, and mechanical engineering teams

What You'll Need:
  • 2+ years of working experience as an Electrical Engineer
  • Maker mentality-being hands-on to quickly build, integrate, and test proof of concepts
  • Schematic entry and layout of 2-4 layer boards (Altium Designer preferred)
  • Familiarity with some sensors and actuators
  • Excellent bring-up and debugging skills
  • SMD soldering skills and familiarity with test and measurement equipment
  • Ability to write bring-up code for microcontrollers in C/C++ and test scripts in Python
  • Good documentation habits
  • First-principles thinking
  • B.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, or related field

Bonus Points For:
  • SPICE simulation knowledge
  • Cable harness design
  • Flex PCB design
  • Motor control experience


The compensation for this position also includes equity and benefits.

Salary Range

$140,000-$185,000 USD
