Ultima Genomics is a rapidly growing company that is developing ground-breaking genomics technologies. Our mission is to continuously drive the scale of genomic information to enable unprecedented advances in biology and improvements in human health. We have developed a foundational new approach to sequencing at scale that overcomes limitations due to the high costs of current technologies. We are well-funded and have raised approximately $600 million from global top-tier investors. Our team brings together unique and diverse expertise across multiple disciplines, from healthcare and life sciences, to engineering, to technology and software and beyond. We are a collaborative group, including successful entrepreneurs, chemists, hardware and software engineers, genomics and biotechnology experts, molecular and computational biologists, software and algorithm experts, and operations and commercial leaders. Join us to develop and commercialize technologies that unleash the power of genomics at scale and empower the future of human health.

We are looking for a highly motivated Electrical Engineer II to join our team!

This is an exciting opening for an experienced Electrical Engineer who wants to be part of team that makes the world a better place.

This is a full-time onsite position at our Fremont, CA location.

How You’ll Contribute

  • Shape the technical direction of next-generation automated sequencing instruments, taking electronic designs from concept through production across robotics, precision motion control, high-speed data acquisition, mixed-signal electronics, and test automation
  • Translate system requirements into electrical specifications, participate in design reviews and risk assessments, and support applicable safety, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and regulatory compliance activities
  • Design custom printed circuit boards (PCBs) and wire harnesses for complex electromechanical systems, including component selection, schematic capture, layout collaboration, and design documentation
  • Define and execute experiments to verify hardware and firmware functionality, characterize performance, and evaluate board-level failure modes
  • Perform prototype testing, document findings and design improvements, and support new product integration, manufacturing readiness, and the transition to volume production
  • Design automated test and measurement systems to identify component-level failures; troubleshoot electrical issues and collaborate with cross-functional teams and vendors to determine root causes and implement corrective actions
  • Develop build, test, and training documentation; maintain electrical design records, bills of materials, and engineering changes; and manage component obsolescence and alternate-part qualification throughout the product lifecycle
  • Other job duties as assigned

  • 2+ years of relevant industry experience
  • Hands-on experience designing custom PCBs and mixed-signal electronics with embedded microcontrollers. Experience collaborating with firmware engineers on hardware–software integration and with mechanical and other engineering teams on design integration. Strong understanding of signal and power integrity
  • Proficiency with electronic design tools such as Altium Designer or KiCad for schematic capture and PCB layout creation and review. Experience using circuit-simulation tools such as SPICE
  • Experience designing industrial electrical systems, including power-supply sizing, component selection, wire-harness design, and electrical enclosure or panel layout
  • Knowledge of EMI/EMC mitigation techniques, including grounding, shielding, filtering, and selection of appropriate harness and interconnect components
  • Strong troubleshooting skills for board-level electronics and complex multidisciplinary systems, with hands-on proficiency using bench and portable measurement equipment

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
