(Senior) Electronics Engineer

About the Role

The Robotics & Mechatronics Teams at Agile Robots are looking for a (Senior) Electronics Engineer (m/f/d) who will help develop PCB-level electronics for our robot arms, from safety-circuit design through to production-ready schematics.

Responsibilities

• PCB Design: Create and review schematics, PCB layouts, and wiring diagrams for production, from initial concept through manufacturing-ready output.
• Safety Circuits: Design and implement safety circuits and fail-safe mechanisms for the robot’s electronics, working within established safety requirements.
• Component Selection: Select and integrate electronic components, including motors, drivers, sensors, and power systems, that meet the robot’s performance and reliability requirements.
• Test Development: Design in-house test devices and write test cases for the electronics subsystem.
• Hardware Debugging: Troubleshoot and resolve electrical and electronics issues on the physical robot, working directly with firmware, software, and mechanics engineers when a fault crosses disciplines.
• Documentation: Develop and maintain electrical documentation, including bills of materials (BOMs), test procedures, and compliance reports.

Essential Skills

• Engineering Background: Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of training and hands-on experience designing electronics for robotic or industrial systems.
• Hands-On Build: Hands-on experience building and debugging electronics, including schematic capture and PCB layout in Altium Designer, microcontroller programming, and signal debugging using oscilloscopes and logic analyzers.
• Safety Standards: Working knowledge of safety standards for high-voltage and high-current electronics.
• Power Electronics: Working knowledge of power electronics for robotic systems, including PMSM motor control, DC/DC converters, battery management, and thermal design for power components.
• Communication Protocols: Working understanding of communication protocols used in robotic and embedded systems, including CAN, SPI, I2C, and Ethernet.

Beneficial Skills

• Harness Design: Experience with harness design and cable management for moving systems.
• SolidWorks Electrical: Experience with SolidWorks Electrical for wiring and harness documentation.
• Functional Safety: Experience working on functional safety projects.
• Test Specifications: Experience writing requirements and test case specifications, and implementing the resulting tests.
• Software Tools: Familiarity with common software engineering tools such as Git.

What We Offer

• Financial Stability: Work at a dynamic high-tech company backed by world-class investors and supported by financial soundness.
• International Team: Join an interdisciplinary, international team representing more than 60 nationalities in a collaborative work environment.
• Development Opportunities: Benefit from numerous opportunities to grow as we continue to expand.
• Impactful Projects: Take on challenging tasks and meaningful projects alongside experts who support your professional and personal growth.
• Corporate Benefits: Enjoy a benefits program covering health, mobility, and learning, worth €100 net per month.
• Modern Workplace: Work in modern office facilities with a rooftop terrace overlooking Munich, free drinks and fruit, and regular company events that contribute to a positive working environment.
