Job description

Boston Dynamics is looking for a Staff Electrical Engineer to join our Atlas team.

As a Staff Electrical Engineer at Boston Dynamics, you will play a pivotal role in the evolution of Atlas, our advanced humanoid robot. Every day you will work on designing compact, reliable electronics used in dense electromechanical systems.You will frequently work hands-on, in the lab, building and debugging electrical systems, ranging from small test setups to fully integrated robots. Robotics includes a broad range of technical subjects within electrical engineering. To thrive in this role, you must be able to work efficiently on multiple development threads in separate, evolving contexts.

Boston Dynamics is a world leader in mobile robots, tackling some of the toughest robotics challenges. For years, our awe-inspiring viral videos on YouTube have shown the world what remarkably capable robots can do. Now we are quickly becoming a recognized leader in automation solutions for industrial applications and warehouse logistics.

What You'll Do:

  • Design electronics that comprise advanced robotic actuators and end-effectors

  • Develop circuit designs for motor drives, power supplies, analog sensing, microcontrollers, and high-speed communications by performing trade studies, block-diagramming, and schematic capture

  • Analyze and optimize circuit designs using spice and simulation

  • Design PCB layouts for highly integrated assemblies with techniques including Flex/Rigid-Flex, High-Density-Interconnect (HDI), and heavy copper

  • Work cross-functionally with mechanical engineers to miniaturize PCBs and optimize reliability for highly complex electromechanical systems

  • Conduct failure analysis and debug complex systems using strong circuit analysis fundamentals

  • Develop comprehensive design and test documentation and execute thorough Electrical Validation Test (EVT)

  • Use command-line Linux tools to configure networks, run software on robots, and interact with firmware

  • Use a wide variety of lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, DMM's, power supplies, programmable loads, and spectrum analyzers to validate designs and debug hard problems

Qualifications:

Any of the experience listed below would be applicable in this role, it is not expected that candidates would possess all of these qualifications.

  • BS or MS in Electrical Engineering

  • 5+ years of experience designing electronics

  • Experience designing power electronics

  • Experience using or designing motors and motor drives

  • Experience implementing ethernet, PCIe, or other high speed data technologies

  • Experience with High-Density-Interconnect (HDI) and heavy copper layout

  • Strong knowledge of PCB fabrication and assembly

  • Experience with Python, C/C++, or MATLAB and strong Linux command-line knowledge

  • Working knowledge of Solidworks or similar mechanical CAD tools

We are interested in every qualified candidate who is eligible to work in the United States. However, we are not able to sponsor visas for this position.

The salary range for this position will be clearly stated in the job posting as required by Massachusetts law. The base pay range for this position is between $117,000 - $145,000.
