Rhoda

At Rhoda AI, we’re building the next generation of generalist intelligent robots. We own the full robotics stack from high-performance hardware and robot systems to the infrastructure and state-of-the‑art foundation world models that control our robots. Our robots are designed to be generalists capable of operating in complex, real‑world environments and handling long‑tail edge cases, made possible by our cutting edge research and end-to‑end system design. We've raised over $450M and are investing aggressively in model research, infrastructure, hardware development, and manufacturing scale‑up to make generalist robotics a reality.

You will own the electronics that sense and drive the hand: motor-control boards, current sensing, and the low-latency signal chain that makes teleoperation feel immediate. You will work in tightly constrained, hand-scale volumes.

What You’ll Do

• Own schematic design and board layout for the hand system's electronics
• Develop motor-control electronics, including drive stages and current sensing for torque and grasp-force estimation
• Minimize latency through the sensing-to-actuation signal chain — teleoperation fidelity depends on it
• Design sensing, harnessing, and interconnects within severely constrained hand-scale volumes
• Support board bring‑up, debug, and validation through rapid prototype iterations

What You Bring

• Expert PCB layout skills, including dense boards in constrained, odd form factors
• Hands‑on experience with motor-control electronics, including drive stages and current sensing
• Deep understanding of signal latency and its impact on closed‑loop control and teleoperation
• 5+ years of complex EE design and EE systems experience

Nice to Have

• Experience with encoders and tactile or force sensing
• EMI/EMC mitigation experience in compact motor‑drive systems
• Comfort collaborating with firmware engineers on board bring‑up
