Job Description & How to Apply Below
, we are making the physical world searchable. Our sensor kits mount to vehicles our customers already drive, and turn every drive into a measured 3D record of their site, across agriculture, construction, and energy. Our AI models then parse through those 3D maps and decipher important information for each of our customers. We started with tree farms, where a single field holds millions of plants no human has ever fully inventoried.
We're a small team of practical engineers with a long-term vision. We focus on real, messy, on-the-ground problems today, while working toward a future where AI agents understand the physical world.
If our mission aligns with how you work and think, we'd love to learn more about you.
The RoleJoin us as our Electrical Engineering Lead, a full-time role on a team of seven.
Our current product is a sensor kit that combines LiDARs, cameras, GPS, and IMUs with onboard compute. It mounts on customer vehicles, runs in the field every day, and ships to paying customers worldwide. We move fast by iterating it rapidly, and our first project is its next revision. As we expand, we will build many new products and start prototyping for brand new industries.
You will lead the electrical work on all of them.
Here, you will take each design through the full cycle: architecture and PCB design, bring-up and debug, firmware, enclosures and mounting with mechanical engineering, sourcing and manufacturing partners, and field testing with customers. You will own the technical direction of electrical engineering at moss, and you will mentor the interns and full-time engineers who work alongside you.
Minimum RequirementsShipped at least one hardware product from concept to production, and can explain what broke along the way and how you fixed it
Designed RF boards (antenna integration, impedance matching, GNSS and radio front ends, RF layout and test)
Strong systems architecture capability (able to define the full electrical stack from power input to compute and sensors)
Deep PCB design experience (schematics, high-speed routing, power integrity, grounding strategy)
Experience designing power systems (DC-DC regulation, battery integration, power budgeting, protection, EMI considerations)
Experience with high-speed and mixed-signal design (USB, Ethernet, MIPI/CSI, CAN, UART, SPI, I2C)
Experience designing electronics for harsh outdoor environments (sealing and IP rating, vibration, thermal, EMI)
Comfortable making first-principles engineering trade-offs, even with partial information
Firmware proficiency (C/C++) for board bring-up, microcontrollers, and peripheral integration
Strong experience integrating autonomous system hardware (LiDAR, cameras, GPS, IMUs, Jetson or similar compute platforms)
Experience running production with contract manufacturers, including overseas (DFM reviews, sourcing, production test strategy, yield and failure analysis)
Experience leading other engineers or mentoring interns
Able to travel to customer sites and manufacturing partners
Own electrical architecture decisions, component selection, and PCB layout for every moss product
Take the current sensor kit through production: sourcing, DFM, production test, failure analysis, and field repairs
Design the next revision of the sensor kit and bring it to production
Validate hardware against IP, vibration, thermal, and fatigue failures, and fix what fails
Write bring-up and board-level firmware in C/C++
Work with mechanical, perception, and robotics engineers on how hardware and software fit together
Own relationships with manufacturing partners and component suppliers, in the US and overseas
Lead design reviews internally and externally with suppliers and partners
Test hardware with customers in real-world deployments
Mentor interns and future electrical engineers
