Responsibilities
Architect and own the electrical architecture for robotic actuators from concept through production. Collaborate with cross-disciplinary teams to prototype, validate, and industrialize high-performance actuator platforms.
Requirements
Requires 5+ years of experience in motor controls or power electronics and a degree in Electrical Engineering or Mechatronics. Proficiency in embedded architectures, inverter design, and simulation tools like MATLAB and Altium is essential.
Full job description
Why We are Hiring for this Role:
At Foundation, we're building a world-class in-house actuator organization to define the next generation of robotic performance. This is a rare opportunity to help architect the motors, controllers, and electrical systems that will power every robot we build.
As our founding electrical engineer for actuators, you'll own the electrical architecture from concept through production, driving efficiency, reliability, manufacturability, and system performance.
You'll touch motor controls, power electronics, embedded systems, sensing, and hardware integration to create highly optimized actuator platforms rather than individual products.
This role combines deep hands-on engineering with technical leadership, helping establish the electrical foundation, engineering standards, and technical direction of a rapidly growing actuator team.
You'll collaborate closely with mechanical, controls, firmware, and manufacturing engineers to rapidly prototype, validate, and industrialize new actuator technologies at scale.
What Kind of Person Are We Looking For:
5+ years of professional or equivalent experience in motor controls, power electronics, or related fields
Degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field. A Ph.D. or equivalent experience is a plus.
Experience designing motor controllers or other power electronics for precision applications, preferably in robotics or advanced automation
Strong understanding of inverter circuit and topology design, current sensing, and control algorithms.
Deep proficiency in building embedded architectures, from silicon and SoC selection to low-level firmware and integration of hardware and software.
Experience with thermal and electrical efficiency optimization in high-performance systems.
Comfortable working with simulation tools for control systems (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink) and circuit design (e.g., Altium, LTspice).
Demonstrated collaboration with cross-disciplinary teams to integrate overall robotic systems.
Foundation is developing the future of general purpose robotics with the goal to address the labor shortage.
Our mission is to create advanced robots that can operate in complex environments, reducing human risk in conflict zones and enhancing efficiency in labor-intensive industries.
