At Humanoid we strive to create the world's leading, commercially scalable, safe, and advanced humanoid robots that seamlessly integrate into daily life and amplify human capacity.

In a world where artificial intelligence opens up new horizons, our faith in its potential unveils a new outlook where, together, humans and machines build a new future filled with knowledge, inspiration, and incredible discoveries.

The development of a functional humanoid robot underpins an era of abundance and well-being where poverty will disappear, and people will be able to choose what they want to do. We believe that providing a universal basic income will eventually be a true evolution of our civilization.

As the demands on our built environment rise, labour shortages loom. With the world’s workforce increasingly moving away from undesirable tasks, the manufacturing, construction, and logistics industries critical to our daily lives are left exposed.

By deploying our general-purpose humanoid robots in environments deemed hazardous or monotonous, we envision a future where human well-being is safeguarded while closing the gaps in critical global labour needs.

We are looking for a Senior Electrical Design Engineer to join our team based in Boston, US.

Responsibilities:

• Design Electrical Systems for Robotics: Develop electrical systems that power and control Humanoid’s advanced robots, with a focus on sensors, compute architecture, and power systems.
• Conduct Circuit Analysis and Debugging: Use strong circuit analysis fundamentals to review electrical designs, conduct failure analysis, and troubleshoot complex electrical systems.
• PCB Design and Schematic Capture: Create detailed schematics and PCB layouts using Altium, ensuring the designs meet the performance, reliability, and manufacturability standards required for robotics.
• Develop Embedded Firmware: Write firmware in C and HDL to program microcontrollers, DSPs, and FPGAs, testing and refining embedded designs to ensure optimal performance.
• Leverage Linux for Robotics: Utilize your knowledge of command-line Linux to configure networks, run software, and interface with robots for testing and validation.
• Hands-On Lab Work: Use a variety of lab equipment, including oscilloscopes, DMMs, power supplies, programmable loads, and spectrum analyzers, to validate designs and solve complex electrical engineering challenges.
• Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with mechanical engineers, software developers, and other team members to integrate electrical systems with robotics hardware, ensuring seamless operation and performance.
