- Full-time
Job descriptionCollaborate with the design and compute teams to refine PCBAs, wiring harnesses, and electrical subsystems for manufacturability, serviceability, and cost efficiency. Lead DFM and DFA reviews for electrical and compute assemblies, ensuring smooth transition from prototype to production. Design, validate, and support electrical test systems, including automated end‑of‑line test setups and diagnostic fixtures. Drive root‑cause analysis and resolution of electrical integration issues in assembly and production environments. Support layout and design updates for custom compute boards, actuator control boards, and sensor interfaces as needed. Develop and maintain electrical process documentation—schematics, harness routing, test procedures, troubleshooting guides, and safety protocols. Collaborate with mechanical and software teams to validate full electromechanical integration, thermal performance, and EMI / ESD compliance. Lead or support scaling initiatives, including design transfer, process qualification, and vendor validation. Identify and implement automation and data‑driven improvements in test coverage, yield, and line throughput. 8+ years of experience in Electrical Engineering, with a mix of design and manufacturing / test experience (preferably robotics, automotive, or aerospace). Strong understanding of PCB design, wiring harness integration, and embedded systems. Hands‑on experience with test automation, data acquisition systems, and diagnostic tools (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.). Knowledge of manufacturing test methodologies, DFM / DFA principles, and electrical safety compliance. Experience working with cross‑functional teams (mechanical, firmware, manufacturing, and supply chain) to deliver integrated systems. Ability to debug complex electrical issues at both system and board levels. Familiarity with high‑speed interfaces, power electronics, and thermal management is a strong plus. Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field. We provide market standard benefits (health, vision, dental, 401k, etc.). Join us for the culture and the mission, not for the benefits. The annual compensation is expected to be between $150,000 - $1,000,000. Exact compensation may vary based on skills, experience, and location.
