Robotic System Engineer

We are seeking a Robotic System Engineer to contribute to the design, development, and integration of robotics hardware for prototype systems at Analog Devices.

• Hardware Development: Contribute to the design and prototyping of hardware and subsystem assemblies for robotic platforms, sensors, actuators, and control systems.
• PCB Design and Bring‑Up: Support the design, development, and initial bring‑up of custom PCB assemblies using standard hardware design practices.
• Component and Subsystem Evaluation: Evaluate components, subsystems, materials, and processes to support prototype performance, reliability, and cost targets.
• System Integration: Integrate processors, sensors, actuators, and related hardware into prototype robotic systems with guidance on more complex assignments.
• Testing and Validation: Execute hardware validation, calibration, and debugging activities to verify system performance and integrity.
• Troubleshooting: Analyze and resolve electrical, mechanical, and thermal issues encountered during development and integration.
• Cross‑Functional
  
  Collaboration:
  
  Work closely with mechanical, software, and AI teams to support hardware and software integration.
• Prototype Execution: Support rapid prototyping efforts for customer, partner, and research use cases by translating technical requirements into working hardware solutions.
• Documentation: Prepare and maintain technical documentation, including schematics, test results, assembly instructions, and design notes.
• Technical Growth: Stay current with developments in robotics hardware, embedded systems, sensors, and related engineering tools.

• Robotics and System Fundamentals: Working knowledge of robotic systems, including sensors, actuators, control concepts, and electro‑mechanical integration.
• Hardware Design Fundamentals: Experience with circuit design, PCB development workflows, and system‑level hardware integration.
• Embedded Systems Knowledge: Familiarity with microcontrollers, embedded systems, and real‑time control fundamentals.
• Programming Capability: Proficiency in C++ and Python for testing, integration, and hardware‑related development tasks.
• Debugging and Validation
  
  Skills:
  
  Experience using lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and related debugging tools.
• Problem Solving: Ability to solve moderately complex technical problems independently with guidance on more complex assignments.
• Collaboration: Strong ability to work effectively across disciplines in a fast‑paced prototyping environment.
• Communication: Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document work and explain technical concepts to teammates.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and 2+ years of relevant experience.
• 2–5 years of relevant experience in robotics, electro‑mechanical systems, hardware integration, or prototype development.
• Familiarity with PCB design tools such as Cadence Allegro or similar platforms.
• Exposure to robotics software frameworks such as ROS
  2.
• Experience with robotic control systems, kinematics, or motion planning.
• Exposure to AI or machine learning‑enabled systems.
