## About the role

We're looking for a System Electrical Engineer to validate, debug, and improve the core electrical blocks of our next-generation sensing hardware. You'll sit between design and validation: you'll bring up prototypes on the bench, find out how each architectural block really performs, root-cause what doesn't, and feed those findings back into the next schematic and layout. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
- 3+ years of experience in electrical engineering, hardware design, or hardware validation
- Strong EE fundamentals: analog and mixed-signal circuits, power conversion and regulation, signal integrity, power integrity, and grounding
- Strong hands-on debug skills, with a track record of root-causing hardware issues on real boards
- Hands-on experience with board bring-up and lab instruments such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power supplies, electronic loads, and probes
- Experience with schematic capture and PCB design for multi-layer boards, in Altium Designer or an equivalent tool
