About The Company We represent an early‑stage robotics startup based in the U.S., building rugged, scalable robots for situational awareness in hazardous environments. Their technology supports firefighting, emergency response, public safety, oil and gas, defense, and industrial operations. Their mission is to create a new generation of reliable, scalable robots that provide critical solutions in some of the world’s most dangerous environments.

The company is backed by top‑tier investors and is actively collaborating with more than 80 major fire departments, law enforcement agencies, industrial teams, and military units across the country. Their robots are built in partnership with the people who need them most—first responders, firefighters, and emergency crews.

They're still early, a tight‑knit team developing the next generation of our robot after multiple prototypes, demos, and pilots. Joining now means helping shape not just the product, but also the company, culture, and mission from the ground up.

About The Role Our client is looking for an Electrical Engineer to design and build the electrical systems that power their robots. You will work on circuit design, embedded systems, power distribution, and sensor integration. This is a hands‑on role where you will solder boards, assemble harnesses, troubleshoot, and test systems in the lab and field.

You will collaborate closely with the mechanical and software teams and take ownership of your designs from prototype to deployment. We value initiative, attention to detail, and accountability.
