Electrical Engineer, Robotics

Responsibilities

• Own the electrical architecture of TAR’s deployment machines, including high- and low-voltage distribution, battery and charging systems, and the power budget for robots that work a full shift off-grid.
• Design boards end-to-end for motor control, sensing, power, and compute: schematic capture, layout, bring-up, and validation.
• Specify and integrate motor drives and actuation electronics, working with mechanical and controls engineers on current sensing, loop tuning, and protection.
• Integrate the sensors and compute that enable core autonomy functions: navigation, perception, controls, and comms.
• Design harnesses, connectors, and enclosures that survive dust, heat, vibration, and rough handling on an active jobsite.
• Own EMI/EMC, grounding, thermal, and electrical safety, including E-stops, interlocks, overcurrent protection, and fault handling on machines that move heavy loads around people.
• Bring up new hardware on the bench and in the field, and debug it under real load.
• Own the build package and manufacturer handoff: sourceable BOMs, testable boards, and harnesses built for repeatable production.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of electrical engineering experience on robotic, vehicle, or electromechanical systems
• End-to-end PCB design experience on hardware you then brought up and debugged under load.
• Power electronics depth across battery packs and BMS, DC-DC conversion, power distribution, and charging.
• Track record shipping hardware with vendors and contract manufacturers.
• High ownership, bias for speed, and comfort with ambiguity.
