Electrical Engineer, Battery and Charger

Since its founding in 2015, 1X has been at the forefront of developing advanced humanoid robots designed for household use. Our mission is to create an abundant supply of labor via safe, intelligent humanoids. 

We strive for excellence in all we do, solving some of the hardest problems in robotics with the world’s most talented individuals. Every part of our robots is designed and produced in-house—from motor coils to AI—reflecting our vertically integrated approach. At 1X, you’ll own real projects, be recognized for your achievements, and rewarded based on merit.

We believe the best work is done when collaborating and therefore require in-person presence in our office locations. 

About Us
As we scale from research and development to full-scale manufacturing, we are seeking a Electrical Engineer, Battery and Charger. This is a role for a highly skilled, hands-on engineer who thrives on rapid prototyping, high-performance board design, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in robotic dexterity. You will play a key role in designing, testing, and refining electrical systems for the most intricate and high-performance robotic hands ever built.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the design of part of the battery or power distribution system, including component selection, schematic design and PCB layout.

• Bring up custom PCBAs.

• Develop and perform tests on hardware, to validate requirements and derisk design changes.

• Design wiring harnesses and cables (connector selection, wire specification).

  
  

Must Haves

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.

• Strong EE fundamentals.

• 2+ years of experience, with a track record of taking PCB designs from concept to product integration.

• Experience with basic test equipment (oscilloscope, logic analyzer, etc).

  
  Nice-to-Haves

• Power electronics design (DC-DC converters, inverters, etc).

• Programming experience (embedded preferred, but anything is helpful).

• Knowledge of system design considering functional safety.
