About the Role
Our client is an applied R&D organisation building an open-source humanoid robot platform and the full software stack that powers it - spanning hardware architecture, locomotion, autonomy, simulation, and infrastructure. Their mission is to make humanoid labour economically viable, translating software into physical labour at scale. This is a rare opportunity to own meaningful, full-stack electrical engineering work that ships to real robots and contributes directly to the broader robotics community. If you are looking for a role where your work has tangible, real-world impact, this is it.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and review schematics and PCB layouts for power distribution units, motor driver boards, and actuator control electronics
- Integrate wiring harnesses, PCBA enclosures, and motor controllers into mechanical assemblies from the ground up
- Lead bring-up of power systems, sensors, and actuator subassemblies diagnose and resolve issues across multiple hardware revisions
- Define and execute electrical and system-level test protocols, analyse failure modes, and iterate designs based on test data
- Collaborate closely with firmware and controls teams to ensure electrical design decisions support stable, low-latency control loops
- Apply expertise in connector selection, grounding strategies, harness routing, and EMI suppression to deliver robust, field-reliable hardware
- Contribute to open-source design efforts, including PCB schematics and manufacturing documentation for the wider robotics community
Requirements
- 3 or more years of hands-on electrical engineering experience on high-complexity electromechanical products
- Solid understanding of motor drivers, sensors, and embedded hardware integration within electromechanical systems
- Deep familiarity with low-voltage (under 60V) DC power systems, DC-DC converters, MOSFET gate drivers, current-sense amplifiers, and passive network design
- Proficiency with oscilloscopes, logic analysers, and CAN/UART sniffers for in-depth hardware debugging
- Strong communication skills with the ability to drive alignment across firmware, mechanical, and leadership stakeholders
- Experience with bipedal or humanoid robot hardware, or legged locomotion platforms (is a bonus)
- Familiarity with CAN bus, motor controllers, and how electrical design choices affect firmware and control integration (is a bonus)
- Scripting experience in Python for hardware automation and data analysis (is a bonus)
- Familiarity with sim-to-real workflows and how hardware decisions affect locomotion policy training and transfer (is a bonus)
If you are passionate about technology and meet the above requirements, please don't hesitate to apply. Please note that only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. Appreciate your understanding. Data provided is for recruitment purposes only.
