Lead Electrical Engineer – Autonomous Robots

We're looking for a Lead Electrical Engineer to own the electrical architecture and reliability of our autonomous mobile robots. You'll lead our China-based electrical team while partnering closely with software, mechanical, and field service teams to solve hard real-world problems and design the next generation of robot control hardware.

Our robots operate in demanding industrial environments, integrating battery systems, motor drives, sensors, networking, and embedded control electronics. This role blends system architecture, hands-on troubleshooting, and engineering leadership.

What You'll Do

Electrical Architecture & System Design

  • Lead design of 48V/24V power systems including power distribution, DC/DC conversion, grounding, and fault protection
  • Define power budgets, electrical safety strategies, and system-level protection schemes

Team Leadership

  • Lead and mentor the China-based electrical engineering team
  • Establish design standards for grounding, EMC, power integrity, and connector/harness reliability
  • Coordinate between China engineering, US robotics teams, and manufacturing partners

Troubleshooting & Field Reliability

  • Lead root-cause analysis of electrical failures in deployed robots — power instability, EMI, communication dropouts, grounding issues, and sensor failures
  • Translate engineering findings into clear repair procedures field technicians can act on quickly
  • Develop diagnostic tools and test procedures to improve fleet uptime

PCB & Embedded Hardware

  • Review and improve PCB designs for power routing, decoupling, grounding topology, signal integrity, and transient protection
  • Lead development of the next-generation robot controller integrating embedded computing, I/O, networking, and power distribution

Communication Systems

  • Design and debug industrial communication systems: Ethernet, CAN bus, RS485
  • Ensure reliable communication between sensors, controllers, and embedded computers

What Success Looks Like:

  • Improved reliability and uptime across the current robot fleet
  • Strong electrical design standards established across the China team
  • Next-generation integrated robot controller delivered
  • Field serviceability meaningfully improved

Requirements

What You Bring

  • 10+ years designing complex embedded electrical systems
  • Deep expertise in power distribution, DC/DC systems, grounding, EMI/EMC, and electrical reliability
  • Proven ability to diagnose difficult field failures using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and power analyzers
  • PCB design or review experience: multi-layer boards, high-current layout, power integrity
  • Experience with mobile robots, AGVs/AMRs, or industrial automation equipment
  • Familiarity with Ethernet, CAN bus, and RS485/industrial protocols
  • Experience leading or coordinating engineering teams, including across international sites
  • Clear communicator — able to translate complex technical analysis for field service teams

Bonus: Battery management systems, motor drive electronics, industrial safety standards (UL/CE/IEC), embedded firmware (C/C++)

The expected minimum base salary for this role is $160,000 annually, informed by external market data. Actual offers will depend on factors such as the candidate’s experience, education, training, key or critical skills, and current market and business conditions.

Benefits

  • Employer-subsidized medical, dental, and vision insurance plans to support your health and wellbeing.
  • Dedicated vacation and sick leave that allows you to recharge and take care of yourself when needed.
  • Invaluable hands-on experience with cutting-edge robotics technology that keeps your skills at the industry forefront.
  • A collaborative culture where innovation thrives, and your work has a real impact.
  • The excitement of contributing to transformative technology in a fast-growing industry.

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.
