Full Job Description
The Role

We need a hands-on electronics engineer who can own hardware compliance from the board level up - someone equally comfortable with a schematic, an oscilloscope, and a UL test plan. You'll work directly with our CEO and CTO on an active hardware evaluation of our current AMR platform and lead the compliance-readiness effort for our next design cycle.

What You'll Do

- Lead UL 3300 (and adjacent: UL 62368-1, ISO 13849, IEC 61000-4 series) certification readiness, working directly with our test lab (Intertek/ETL)

- Own EMI/RF pre-compliance testing in-house (we have a Siglent SSA3021X + Tekbox probe set) ahead of formal chamber time

- Evaluate and qualify RF/cellular modules for FCC compliance, including sourcing and validating replacements for components affected by DoD/Covered List restrictions

- Reverse-engineer and document third-party hardware (service boards, SoC head units) for BOM/schematic clarity and vendor negotiation support

- Support PCB design, layout review, and rework across navigation, power/CAN, and HMI subsystems

- Work with contract manufacturers and hardware consultants to bring designs from prototype to certified production

- Maintain compliance documentation and standards tracking across our certification roadmap

What You Bring

- BS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience

- 4+ years in hardware design and product compliance, ideally for a certified electromechanical or robotics product

- Direct experience with UL certification processes (UL 3300, UL 62368-1, or similar) - you've taken a product through a test lab before

- Working knowledge of FCC Part 15 and EMI/EMC pre-compliance testing

- Comfortable with schematic capture and PCB layout tools (Altium preferred)

- Experience with embedded systems (ARM/STM32/GD32-class MCUs) and communications protocols (UART, CAN, I2C)

- Bonus: experience with cellular/RF module integration and qualification (Quectel, Telit, u-blox, etc.)

- Bonus: robotics, medical device, or safety-critical hardware background, and Chinese - Mandarin conversational ability.

Location: Orlando, FL (on-site at our Directors Row facility - this is a hands-on hardware role)
