If yes, you'll fit right in here at Amazon Robotics.
Are you passionate about electrical design and bringing innovative hardware to life? Do you thrive on solving complex circuit design challenges that span analog, digital, and power domains? Do you want to see your electrical designs enable products that delight millions of Amazon customers? If yes, you'll fit right in here at Amazon Robotics.
Amazon Robotics is seeking an Electronics Design Engineer with deep expertise in electrical design and circuit validation to lead the design and integration of electronic robotic systems.
We are a smart team of doers that work passionately to apply cutting-edge advances in robotics, control systems, and mechatronics to solve real-world challenges that will transform our customers' experiences in ways we can't imagine yet. We invent new improvements every day. We are Amazon Robotics and we will give you the tools and support you need to invent with us in ways that are rewarding, fulfilling and fun.
Design and analyze electrical circuits and systems for robotic platforms, including motor control electronics, sensor interfaces, power distribution, communication systems, and safety-critical circuits
Create detailed electrical schematics with clear specifications using industry-standard schematic capture tools (OrCAD, Altium, or similar)
Generate smaller layout (e.g., sensor designs) yourself and lead larger layout (e.g., motor controllers) undertaken by our internal and external team
Build circuit models and simulations (SPICE, MATLAB, or similar) to predict performance, conduct trade studies, and validate design approaches before prototyping
Develop electrical architecture diagrams and interface specifications to communicate design intent and analyze system performance, signal integrity, and power distribution
Design filtering, signal processing, and protection circuits to address real-world limitations such as noise, EMI/EMC compliance, thermal constraints, and component tolerances in dynamic robotic environments
Lead cross-functional design integration across mechanical (actuators, enclosures, thermal), electrical (circuits, PCBs, motor controllers), and firmware (embedded control, safety systems) domains
Identify system-level solutions that optimize across components rather than individual parts in isolation, finding creative trade-offs between electrical design, mechanical constraints, cost targets, and performance requirements
Derive electrical requirements and specifications across subsystems to ensure integrated robotic systems meet objectives for functionality, reliability, safety, and human-robot interaction
Conduct trade space studies to evaluate design alternatives, comparing performance, cost, manufacturability, supplier capability, and timeline (make vs. buy, OEM vs. ODM decisions)
Lead electrical validation and testing activities including prototype bring-up, functional testing, EMI/EMC compliance testing, safety validation, and design verification against specifications
Generate technical artifacts (schematics, test plans, trade studies, validation reports, design documentation) that influence product designs across hardware, firmware, and manufacturing teams
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field
Experience in motherboard design, PCB design including schematic capture, stackup and circuit board layout
Experience with analog, digital, and high-speed circuit design
Experience using common electronics test equipment (oscilloscopes, power supplies, function generators, etc)
Experience identifying, maintaining, and troubleshooting Motor Controls including motor starters, Variable Frequency Drives, DC drives, and standard electrical components
3+ years of experience designing and debugging printed circuit boards (PCBs) for embedded systems
Experience with embedded microcontrollers and processors (ARM Cortex, STM32, or similar)
Proficiency with sensor integration for robotics applications (IMUs, encoders, force/torque sensors, vision systems, LiDAR)
Master's degree or Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
