  • Design analog and digital circuits including power regulation, signal conditioning, and sensor interfaces
  • Lead full PCB development lifecycle from schematic capture through layout and field bring-up
  • Define wiring diagrams, cable harnesses, grounding strategies, and EMI/EMC approaches for robotic systems
  • Integrate and validate sensors across thermal, gas, visual, RF, and other modalities
  • Conduct and interpret thermal load, EMI, and vibration testing on robotic electrical hardware
  • Perform SPICE simulations for analog validation, noise analysis, and circuit stability

What they're looking for

  • PCB design and layout (Altium, KiCad, or Eagle)
  • Analog and digital circuit design
  • Power distribution and regulation
  • SPICE simulation and circuit analysis
  • Sensor integration and selection
  • EMI/EMC design and testing
  • Cable harness and wiring design
