With its A.I.
-powered robotic technology platform, Symbotic is changing the way consumer goods move through the supply chain. Intelligent software orchestrates advanced robots in a high-density, end-to-end system – reinventing warehouse automation for increased efficiency, speed and flexibility.
We are looking for a Senior Manager, Electrical Engineering Design, to join our Electrical Engineering – Bot Hardware team. Your job will be to lead and develop the electrical design team responsible for the PCB-based electronics, harnesses, and electrical integration that power and connect Symbotic’s robotic systems.
Symbotic’s vision is automation at large scale, carried by physical AI. It starts in the warehouse, where robots see, decide, and move goods at extraordinary speed and density — and extends to new platforms and applications still taking shape. As that vision grows, so does the challenge: turning intelligence into physical action through the power, sensing, compute, harnesses, and electrical integration that bring Physical AI to life.
We need a relentless problem solver: someone who will not give up, who can motivate a world-class team of brilliant people, and who can hold several priorities at once while keeping that team engaged and focused on the target. The work changes how goods move, starting in the warehouse and extending to what comes next. The person in this role decides whether we have the team that can do it.
You will lead multiple high-priority programs across a growing product portfolio, balancing and resetting priorities as needs evolve while keeping the team engaged and focused on critical program goals. Experience in robotics, automotive, industrial automation, or similarly complex electromechanical products will position you well to lead a team developing hardware that must perform reliably at scale.
What we doThe Electrical Engineering – Bot Hardware team is part of Symbotic’s Hardware Engineering organization and is responsible for developing the electrical hardware that powers and connects our robotic systems. We design PCB-based electronics, harnesses, and electrical interfaces that support power distribution, sensing, compute, communications, and control across our automation platforms.
Our team supports a growing portfolio of robotic products—from warehouse systems operating in the field today to new platforms and applications in development and future architectures. As our product line expands, we evaluate and implement new technologies across sensing, power, compute, communications, and electrical integration, turning them into robust hardware that can be validated, manufactured, and deployed at scale.
We partner closely with mechanical, firmware, test, manufacturing, operations, and functional safety teams to integrate these designs into reliable, manufacturable robotic products and support them from development through production.
What you’ll doBuild, lead, and develop a world-class electrical design team, including hiring senior, staff, and principal engineers, developing the people already here, managing performance, and creating an environment where strong engineers can solve challenging technical problems.
Provide hands‑on technical leadership across the electrical product lifecycle, from early concepts and architecture through schematic and PCB design, bring‑up, design verification testing (DVT), release, and production.
Lead the electrical design and integration of PCBAs, cables, harnesses, and related interfaces supporting power, sensing, compute, communications, and control within Symbotic’s robotic platforms.
Drive multiple complex programs simultaneously, setting and resetting priorities as needs evolve while keeping a…
