About the role

We are looking for an Electrical Engineer to join our team. You will design, develop, and validate the electrical systems of a humanoid robot platform including power distribution, motor control electronics, sensor interfaces, and communication networks and ensure robust integration with embedded firmware and our ROS2-based software stack.
This role will play a central part in shaping the robot’s electrical architecture, owning design decisions across schematics, PCB design, and system-level integration as the platform scales to new modules and deployments.

Your Responsibilities

Short-Term (Initial Focus)

Design and review electrical schematics for actuator controllers, sensor boards, and power systems
Support PCB bring-up, validation, and debugging of custom electronics
Define and implement power distribution, grounding, and protection strategies
Integrate sensors (force/torque, encoders, IMUs) at the electrical and interface level
Debug signal integrity, EMI, and communication issues (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN)
Support hardware bring-up of new actuator and gripper modules

Long-Term (Growth Path)

Own the electrical architecture for new robot subsystems and modules
Develop scalable standards for schematics, PCB design, and electrical interfaces
Lead electrical design reviews and cross-team technical decision-making
Collaborate with embedded, mechatronics, and software teams on hardware–software co-design
Drive improvements in reliability, safety, and manufacturability of electrical systems

Essential Skills

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field
Strong experience with schematic design and PCB development
Knowledge of motor drivers, power electronics, and sensor interfaces
Experience with communication protocols: UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, Ethernet/UDP
Hands-on debugging skills using oscilloscope, logic analyzer, and multimeter
Understanding of embedded systems constraints and real-time hardware behavior

Beneficial Skills

Experience designing electronics for robotics or motion control systems
Familiarity with servo and motor control platforms (Dynamixel, ODrive, or similar)
Experience with safety, protection circuits, and EMC/EMI considerations
Exposure to ROS2-based robotic systems

What we offer

A dynamic high-tech company combined with financial soundness and world-class investors.
Join an interdisciplinary, international team with 60+ different nationalities in a collaborative work environment.
Lots of development opportunities in the context of our continued growth.
Challenging tasks and impactful projects alongside experts that enable professional and personal growth.
Corporate Benefits Program that covers health, mobility, and learning with 100€ net per month.
Modern office facilities with a rooftop terrace overlooking Munich, free drinks & fruits, and regular company events contribute to a good working environment.
