SeniorStaff Electrical Engineer

About Us

Were Queue the worlds first fully autonomous robotic pharmacy. We go from sealed wholesale bottles to filled verified prescription vials with zero human involvement.

We built Queue because no one should ever have to wait in line for the medicines they need. One in three US pharmacies has shut down. Pharmacists are overworked to a breaking point. And patients are paying the price. Queue fixes that. Pharmacists get to practice pharmacy again counseling patients catching interactions doing the work only they can do. And patients get their prescriptions in 60 seconds or less any time anywhere.

Were backed by over $18 million from Alleycorp Riot Ventures Ubiquity Ventures House Capital and others who believe the pharmacy system is broken and that robotics can fix it. Queue was founded by Nick Desai (6x founder previously CEO of Heal) and Joshua Liu (previously Tesla Waymo and Zipline).

About the role

As a Senior/Staff Electrical Engineer you will own the end-to-end design of complex electrical subsystems from requirements capture through schematic layout prototyping and production bring-up on a first-of-its-kind autonomous robotic pharmacy dispensing system. This role carries significant technical ownership and offers the opportunity to shape both the hardware architecture and the teams engineering standards in a regulated pharmaceutical environment.

What Youll Do

• Own the full lifecycle of electrical subsystem design across power distribution motor drive sensor interfaces and mixed-signal circuits from initial requirements through schematic layout prototyping and production bring-up

• Create and maintain schematics PCB layouts and bills of materials following established design and release processes while driving improvements to team-wide standards for documentation layout and test coverage

• Evaluate and qualify sensors actuators and power management components for use in a regulated pharmaceutical environment

• Define and execute testing specifications across subsystems to ensure each component meets intended functionality and safe operating conditions; document findings root causes and lessons learned to support continuous improvement

• Investigate and resolve challenging hardware issues across prototyping and production including signal integrity thermal and EMC problems

• Collaborate with firmware and mechanical engineers to co-develop interface definitions connector pinouts harness routing and integration test plans that simplify system integration

• Apply DFM DFT and supply chain considerations to ensure designs are production-ready from the start

What You Bring

• 510 years of electrical engineering experience with hands-on design work across multiple product development cycles and demonstrated technical leadership on multi-board or multi-subsystem products

• Track record of owning complex electrical subsystems end-to-end from requirements through schematic layout prototyping and production bring-up

• Experience designing and validating circuits for power distribution motor control sensing or communication interfaces in electromechanical systems

• Deep expertise in one or more core domains power electronics motor drives sensor interfaces or mixed-signal design with working breadth across the others

• Proficiency in schematic capture PCB layout and BOM management using industry-standard tools such as Altium KiCad or equivalent

• Strong debugging and bench skills with the ability to bring up new boards characterize performance and drive issues to root cause across signal integrity thermal and EMC challenges

• Experience driving design reviews and contributing to team-wide standards for schematics layout documentation and test coverage

• Familiarity with compliance testing and design practices related to EMC safety or environmental standards

• Strong documentation habits with an emphasis on capturing design rationale test results and lessons learned
