About the Role

We are building hands that work like human hands, tackling one of robotics' hardest unsolved problems. As a Senior Electrical Engineer on our Humanoid Hands Team, you will design the motor driver circuits, embedded systems, and custom PCBs to enable dexterous manipulation.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end PCB design for robotic hand controllers including schematics, layout, and BOM selection.
• Design and develop motor driver and motor controller circuits for BLDC, brushed, and stepper motors used in hand joints and tendon-driven systems.
• Evaluate and integrate motor driver ICs and power stages including gate drivers, H-bridges, and FOC controllers.
• Develop custom force and tactile sensors with aggressive size and reliability requirements.
• Design embedded systems and mixed-signal circuits (MCUs, FPGAs, sensors, power, communications).
• Perform board bring-up, validation, and debugging.
• Guide junior engineers and review schematic and layout work.
• Interface with firmware engineers to define board-level APIs and support hardware abstraction.
• Drive DFM, DFT, and EMC improvements as designs move to production.

Requirements

• Proven track record designing embedded systems (MCUs, DSPs, or FPGAs) in compact, high-reliability environments.
• Hands-on experience designing motor driver and motor controller circuits including gate drivers, H-bridge topologies, FOC controllers, and power stage design for BLDC, brushed, or stepper motors.
• Experience with sensor integration (IMUs, force/tactile, encoders), motor control, and power electronics.
• Strong debugging skills with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG tools.
• Proficiency in Altium Designer, KiCad, or Cadence.
• Solid understanding of signal integrity, thermal management, and power distribution for compact electronics.
• Familiarity with firmware interactions and embedded C/C++ is a plus.
• Exposure to safety standards (IEC, ISO) and EMI/EMC compliance testing.
