Hardware Electronics Engineer , Industrial Robotics Group

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 youll 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 cant 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.


Key job responsibilities

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


- Bachelors 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 professional experience in hardware development and electronics design
- 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)

- Masters degree or Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
