Full Job Description
You will own the electronics that sense and drive the hand: motor-control boards, current sensing, and the low-latency signal chain that makes teleoperation feel immediate. You will work in tightly constrained, hand-scale volumes.
What You'll Do
• Own schematic design and board layout for the hand system's electronics
• Develop motor-control electronics, including drive stages and current sensing for torque and grasp-force estimation
• Minimize latency through the sensing-to-actuation signal chain - teleoperation fidelity depends on it
• Design sensing, harnessing, and interconnects within severely constrained hand-scale volumes
• Support board bring-up, debug, and validation through rapid prototype iterations
What You Bring
• Expert PCB layout skills, including dense boards in constrained, odd form factors
• Hands-on experience with motor-control electronics, including drive stages and current sensing
• Deep understanding of signal latency and its impact on closed-loop control and teleoperation
• 5+ years of complex EE design and EE systems experience
Nice to Have
• Experience with encoders and tactile or force sensing
• EMI/EMC mitigation experience in compact motor-drive systems
• Comfort collaborating with firmware engineers on board bring-up
