Job description

Senior Electrical Systems Engineer (ATV Team)

Our mission is to create advanced all terrain vehicles that can operate in complex environments, reducing human risk across conflict zones, construction, mining, and space.

We are on the lookout for extraordinary engineers and scientists to join our team. Your previous experience in robotics isn't a prerequisite it's your talent and determination that truly count.

We expect that many of our team members will bring diverse perspectives from various industries and fields. We are looking for individuals with a proven record of exceptional ability and a history of creating things that work.

Culture

We like to be frank and honest about who we are, so that people can decide for themselves if this is a culture they resonate with. Please read more about our culture here :

Who should join

  • You like working in person with a team in San Francisco.
  • You deeply believe that this is the most important mission for humanity and needs to happen yesterday.
  • You are highly technical - regardless of the role you are in. We are building technology; you need to understand technology well.
  • You care about aesthetics and design inside out. If it's not the best product ever, it bothers you, and you need to fix it.
  • You don't need someone to motivate you; you get things done.

Why We Are Hiring for This Role

  • Own the end-to-end design of the vehicle electrical system, from power distribution to harness integration.
  • Develop schematics, harness drawings, and PCB-level designs for subsystem interconnects.
  • Lead bench bring-up of sensors, actuators, and compute subsystems prior to vehicle integration.
  • Define and execute electrical validation tests (continuity, insulation, load testing, EMI checks).
  • Create and maintain documentation for electrical standards, wiring practices, and safety protocols.
  • Work closely with Mechanical Engineering on packaging and routing of harnesses.
  • Support system bring-up during assembly, troubleshoot electrical issues, and drive root-cause analysis. Collaborate with Embedded / Software to ensure clean power, comms, and integration for all subsystems.
  • What Kind of Person We Are Looking For

  • BS / MS in Electrical Engineering or related field.
  • 58+ years of experience in vehicle electrical systems, robotics, or related embedded hardware projects.
  • Strong background in power distribution, harnessing, and PCB-level design.
  • Experience with sensors, actuators, and communication buses (CAN, Ethernet).
  • Hands-on experience debugging hardware in lab / bench settings.
  • Familiarity with grounding, shielding, and safety practices for LV and HV systems.
  • Comfortable working cross-functionally and hands-on in fast-paced prototyping environments.
  • 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 $80,000 - $1,000,000. Exact compensation may vary based on skills, experience, and location.
