Responsibilities

We are seeking an Electrical Engineer for a senior individual-contributor role leading printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) test infrastructure for advanced robotic systems. You will independently turn evolving requirements into working test stations, make technical tradeoffs, and own delivery…

  • Own PCBA test-station architecture, including device-under-test interfaces, programmable power, electronic loads, signal routing, instrumentation, and protection.
  • Translate board requirements and likely failure modes into test coverage, measurement methods, and pass/fail criteria.
  • Design and bring up fixture interface boards, switching circuits, harnesses, and connectors. Release schematics, PCB layouts, wiring diagrams, bills of materials, and interface…
  • Integrate oscilloscopes, meters, power supplies, loads, and data acquisition hardware; validate calibration, timing, accuracy, and repeatability across stations and board…
  • Develop and debug programming and communications interfaces such as JTAG/SWD, UART, SPI, I²C, CAN, and Ethernet as required by the board.

What they're looking for

  • Demonstrated ability to independently deliver significant electronics test-system projects from ambiguous requirements through working hardware, validation, and sustained use.
  • Hands-on capability in circuit and fixture-interface design, schematic interpretation, board bring-up, power delivery, signal switching, and instrument integration.
  • Ability to independently debug PCBAs and test hardware using oscilloscopes, meters, logic analyzers, and systematic root-cause investigation.
  • Ability to write, debug, and maintain code that interfaces with real hardware in Python or a comparable language, including instrument control, sequencing, error handling, and…
  • Practical understanding of grounding, signal integrity, calibration, measurement uncertainty, ESD controls, power sequencing, and electrical protection.
