Mind Robotics builds intelligent, broadly capable robots for industrial deployment in high-impact environments. Backed by Accel, Kleiner Perkins and a16z.
About the role
As our Power Electronics Engineer, you’ll own the robot’s power architecture end to end, from how power reaches every compute, sensing and actuation load to the motor inverters that drive each joint. The compute, actuation and controls teams build against the specs you set, so your decisions shape the whole robot program, not just your own boards. You’ll make the key calls on topology, device technology and suppliers, and set the design standards other hardware teams follow. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience
- Has owned a product’s power architecture, not just individual boards, that other teams built against
- Deep expertise in either power distribution or inverter power stages, with architecture decisions spanning both
- Strong DC-DC design skills, including topology, magnetics and loop compensation, plus current sensing and protection circuits
- Strong high-current layout, EMI/EMC, bring-up and measurement skills, including double-pulse testing and gate-drive characterization
- Experience with harnesses, connectors, volume manufacturing and contract manufacturers
More about this role
Mind Robotics is building Physical AI for real-world industrial deployment, starting with the factory floor. We believe the hardest problems in AI are solved when researchers and engineers are hands-on with the physical world every day - and we're looking for people who are passionate about robotics, value ownership, and are excited to tackle difficult problems.

You’ll also stay hands-on, taking designs from schematic through bring-up and validation.
Responsibilities
Own the robot’s power architecture end to end, from distribution across compute, actuation, sensing and peripherals to the motor inverters. Compute, actuation, controls and systems teams build against your rail budgets and interfaces, and their...
