Electrical Engineer (m/f/d)

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.
