Job Description

Build the Path Forward

Path Robotics is redefining what's possible in autonomous welding. Our AI-powered robotic welding systems use advanced sensing and computer vision to adapt in real time. We're building the future of manufacturing, and we're looking for engineers who want to get their hands dirty doing it.

We're looking for an Senior Electrical Hardware Engineer with a strong foundation in PCB design and electrical systems development. You'll work on the electronics that power mobile robotic welding platforms — from sensor interfaces and motor control to power distribution and embedded communication. This is a role for someone who takes ownership of their designs end to end: from schematic capture through layout, bring-up, and integration into a working system.

What You'll Do

Design and develop PCBs for embedded control, power management, motor drive, and sensor interfacing in robotic systems
Own designs from schematic capture through layout, fabrication, assembly, and hardware validation
Specify and select components with attention to availability, cost, reliability, and fit within the broader electrical architecture
Define and validate electrical interfaces between custom PCBs, off-the-shelf modules, actuators, and sensing hardware
Develop and execute hardware test plans; debug boards at the bench and support integration with firmware and software teams
Maintain design documentation, schematics, and BOMs in version-controlled workflows
Work with contract manufacturers and PCB fabricators to ensure designs are manufacturable and yield-friendly
Support field investigations and drive design improvements based on reliability findings

Who You Are

Required

6+ years of hardware engineering experience in a product development environment
Proficiency in a professional EDA tool for schematic capture and PCB layout
Experience designing multi-layer PCBs with mixed-signal, power, and high-speed digital content
Familiarity with common embedded communication protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, Ethernet)
Working knowledge of power electronics — motor drive, DC-DC conversion, power sequencing, and protection circuits
Ability to bring up and debug hardware independently using standard lab equipment (oscilloscope, DMM, logic analyzer)

Why You’ll Love Working Here

Competitive salary and equity in a well-funded, high-growth robotics company
Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits
401(k)
Flexible PTO
Hands-on, collaborative culture
