Senior Member of Technical Staff: Electrical Engineering — Compute and Sensing

• →Design and deliver compute and sensing subsystems, including SoM/SoC-based compute boards, high-bandwidth camera modules, and sensor interface electronics for the humanoid robot.
• →Lead high-speed digital design efforts—schematic capture, controlled-impedance PCB layout, and signal/power integrity analysis for interfaces such as MIPI CSI-2, PCIe, Ethernet, DDR, and multi-gigabit SerDes. 
• →Architect and implement FPGA-based data paths for camera aggregation, timestamping/synchronization, and pre-processing. 
• →Own board bring-up, hands-on debug, and root-cause analysis using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and protocol analyzers, and validate designs against SI and EMC requirements.
• →Partner cross-functionally with mechanical, thermal, firmware, and perception teams to integrate cameras and compute into the broader robot platform under real packaging, power, and thermal constraints.
• →Drive designs from concept through DFM/DFA and production release with manufacturing and supply chain, and establish design standards while mentoring engineers.

• 7+ years of experience delivering complex electronics from concept through production (or MS + 5 years), including shipping hardware into volume production.
• Strong core electrical engineering skillset: schematic design, multilayer PCB layout (e.g Altium), power supply/regulation design, component selection, and bring-up of mixed-signal boards. Experienced with HDI board design. 
• Demonstrated experience designing and debugging high-speed signals, including controlled-impedance routing, length/skew matching, and signal-integrity analysis.
• Hands-on experience integrating high-bandwidth cameras and image sensors, including interfaces such as MIPI CSI-2 and associated timing, synchronization, and data-rate considerations.
• Working knowledge of FPGA-based systems and the hardware design required to support them (high-speed I/O, memory, clocking), including collaboration with firmware/software teams.
• Strong proficiency with lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, logic and protocol analyzers) for systematic troubleshooting, plus strong communication, ownership, and cross-functional collaboration.

• Direct experience with robotic systems, preferably humanoid and/or manipulation robots.
• FPGA development experience (RTL/HDL) for camera or sensor data pipelines, including image-sensor pre-processing or sensor fusion.
• Experience with high-speed board design tools and SI simulation, and with camera calibration, synchronization, or ISP integration.
• Experience with RF and wireless communication designs, working understanding of antenna design.
