Job Description & How to Apply Below

At Avride, we design and build cutting‑edge hardware for self‑driving cars and autonomous delivery robots. Our mission is to create reliable, intelligent systems that connect seamlessly with our autonomous platforms — ensuring safety, scalability, and innovation on every level.

About the Role

We are looking for a hands‑on Electrical Design Engineer to join our Hardware Design team developing next‑generation delivery robots. This is a role for an engineer who enjoys the full cycle — from electrical architecture and system design to integration, validation, and manufacturing support.

What You’ll Do
  • Develop and maintain system‑level electrical documentation (Power, Network, and Connection Diagrams).
  • Design and document 12V / 48V power distribution systems, including protection, grounding, and redundancy.
  • Define and maintain interfaces between compute units, controllers, sensors, and actuators.
  • Integrate and validate automotive and industrial communication networks — CAN, Ethernet (both BaseT and BaseT1), RS‑485, Modbus, IO‑Link, and discrete I/O.
  • Select and qualify connectors, cables, and interface components (M8/M12, DT, D‑sub, etc.) to meet environmental and EMI requirements.
  • Prepare and release production‑ready harness and interconnect documentation (pinouts, routing data, connection tables).
  • Collaborate with Mechanical, Embedded, and Manufacturing teams to ensure design integrity and serviceability.
  • Support prototype builds, troubleshooting, and system validation during testing.
  • Provide manufacturing support, review production builds, and drive continuous design improvements.
What You’ll Need
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
  • 3–6 years of experience in automotive, robotics, or industrial automation.
  • Strong understanding of DC power distribution, grounding, and protection principles.
  • Working knowledge of automotive and industrial communication protocols.
  • Proficiency with EPLAN, Solid Works Electrical, or similar ECAD tools.
  • Experience creating production‑ready documentation and collaborating with suppliers or contract manufacturers.
  • Solid problem‑solving and diagnostic skills during integration and testing.
  • Excellent teamwork and communication in a fast‑paced, cross‑functional environment.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Familiarity with high‑speed Ethernet (10GBaseSR, 10GBaseT1) and network redundancy.
  • Understanding of EMC, shielding, and grounding for mixed‑signal systems.
  • Experience with solid‑state switching, relays, and e‑fuses for low‑voltage systems.
  • Hands‑on experience in prototype builds, integration, or field validation.

If you’re ready to work on the technology that powers tomorrow’s mobility — we’d love to meet you.
