PCB Layout and Interconnect Engineer

Agility's commercially deployed humanoids operate alongside teams in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers - tackling physically demanding and repetitive tasks while enabling workers to focus on higher-value work. With industry-leading safety standards and years of proven deployment data, we're pioneering a new era of automation that enhances human potential.

This role will influence the design of the next generation of Digit, aimed at meeting customer needs at a commercial scale. The PCB Layout and Interconnect Engineer will help drive the robot design and will develop robust and reliable electronics for this and future robot generations. Collaboration with a multi-disciplinary team of engineers is essential to understand product requirements and ensure designs are robust, safe, and production-ready.

The PCB Layout and Interconnect Engineer’s responsibilities include:

• Executing complex, multi-layer printed circuit board layouts using Altium Designer to create PCB engineering deliverables for release.
• Designing system cable assemblies, wire harnesses, and interconnect schematics based on mechanical and electrical constraints.
• Estimating duration of work efforts to contribute to project schedules.
• Implementing PCB layout solutions and/or harness solutions to improve emissions mitigation, power dissipation, test, manufacturing, and assembly test (DFM/DFA).
• Executing PCB layout or harness design and release checklists and presenting your design at cross-functional design reviews.
• Collaborating closely with Mechanical Engineering to define board outlines, connector placement, keep-out areas, 3D harness routing through robotic assemblies, etc.
• Partnering with PCB fabricators, assembly houses, and cable harness vendors to resolve technical queries and support production.

Candidates should possess the following qualifications:

• A Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent).
• 5 or more years of PCB layout and cable harness design experience.
• Deep experience with Altium Designer (for PCB layout) and 3D ECAD/MCAD integration.
• Experience with complex layout constraints including high-speed differential signaling, impedance control, and power electronics.
• 3D visualization capabilities to imagine and optimize space constrained circuitry and harness routing in challenging mechanical and thermal environments.
• Strong understanding of IPC standards for PCB fabrication/assembly and wire harness assembly (IPC-620).
• Cable harness design specifically using Altium Harness.
• Flex and rigid-flex circuit design.
• Component footprint and symbol generation/management in Altium.
• Must thrive in a highly dynamic environment with rapidly evolving requirements, tight schedules, and enjoy building collaborative relationships on a daily basis.
• Authorization to work in the USA

Candidates with more of the following will be more highly regarded:

• Experience with Altium Multi-board design and system-level connectivity.
• Proficiency using Altium Co Designer for seamless ECAD/MCAD synchronization.
• Knowledge of Hyper Lynx for Signal Integrity (SI) and/or Power Integrity (PI) analysis.
• Familiarity with PTC Creo for mechanical integration and clearance checks.
• Adjacent engineering disciplines (schematic entry, firmware, mechanical, test).
• Project management tools experience (especially using Jira).

This is a fully remote role with the option to work hybrid if a commutable distance from our Salem, OR, Pittsburgh, PA, or Fremont, CA offices. Candidates should anticipate regular travel to Salem, Oregon, or Fremont, California, averaging 1 week per quarter over a year, with bursts of extended stays in Salem or Fremont during critical project phases.
