Senior Electrical Engineer II

Join Axon and be a Force for Good. At Axon, we’re on a mission to Protect Life. We explore society’s most critical safety and justice issues with our ecosystem of devices and cloud software. Life at Axon is fast‑paced, challenging, and meaningful. Here you’ll take ownership and drive real change while growing every day on a mission that matters.

As a senior member of the Robotics Electrical Engineering team, you will design, develop, and test cutting‑edge electronics integral to AXON Robotics products. You will own critical electronic circuits and systems, collaborate with product engineering teams worldwide, and mentor junior engineers.

• Conduct research, propose, and develop innovative, industry‑leading circuit designs for Axon Robotics products.
• Select, design, develop, and verify system circuitry and hardware aligned with project objectives and requirements.
• Design embedded mixed‑signal circuitry with schematic capture tools.
• Collaborate with PCB Design engineers to define, plan, implement, and inspect printed circuit board layouts using Allegro or other tools.
• Choose new electrical parts and suppliers; work with suppliers to select the best parts.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional engineering, technology partners, and manufacturing teams to oversee electronics development from concept through mass production.
• Lead schematic and layout design inspections to improve design release quality and product reliability.
• Develop test methods and create test plans to evaluate and validate designs.
• Bring up, characterize, and debug systems and circuits using lab tools such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, and power supplies.
• Document design outcomes, test results, and related information, then present findings to the design teams.
• Evaluate circuit performance and assess compliance with product and regulatory requirements.
• Optimize electronic design performance using simulation tools and hands‑on measurements.
• Help finalize assembly drawings, bill of materials, Gerber files, and other documentation needed for product release.
• Partner with new product introduction team to develop and define test requirements for PCBA board‑level testers and system functional test fixtures on the production line.
• Share knowledge, mentor, and elevate skills of team members.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline.
• 9+ years of industry‑leading electronics design experience, especially in high‑speed digital embedded systems, Qualcomm (or similar), high‑speed memory, camera interfaces (MIPI), and digital buses (PCI, DDR, etc.).
• Highly proficient in engineering processes across all design phases, with the ability to lead hardware design from concept to mass production release.
• Experienced system‑level design engineer who creates designs that meet product requirements and collaborates with product and engineering teams to navigate trade‑offs.
• Experience designing for electromagnetic compatibility and protection against EMI/ESD; familiar with EMI/ESD filtering and protection techniques.
• Good background in basic scripting (Python or similar); use of scripting to automate data collection, testing, and documentation generation.
• Collaboration skills with firmware engineering to develop and debug embedded electronic systems.
• Exceptional hands‑on proficiency with electronics bring‑up, characterization, and debugging using laboratory tools.
• Strong schematic design skills using industry‑leading tools and BOM development; experience with Cadence/OrCAD desired.
• Skilled in leading and collaborating with PCB and mechanical design engineers for rigid, flex, and rigid‑flex PCBs.
• Experience designing and debugging products to pass regulatory standards (FCC, CE, IEC, etc.).
• Independent contributor capable of developing products within cross‑functional and geographically diverse engineering teams.
• Experience collaborating with and managing design partners and vendors.
• Strong proficiency in documentation, analysis, and presentation tools (Word, Excel, PowerPoint).

• Specific experience designing or specifying motors, drive circuitry, motor position/sensing…
