1X Technologies AS
Electrical Engineer (New Graduate)
1X Technologies AS, Palo Alto, California, United States, 94306
Electrical Engineer (Entry-Level), Hardware Engineering
Location:
Palo Alto, CA (on-site)
About 1X We build humanoid robots that work alongside people to solve labor shortages and create abundance.
The Role We are seeking a motivated and hands-on Entry-Level Electrical Engineer to join our hardware development team. This role is ideal for recent graduates eager to apply foundational electrical engineering skills in real-world design and testing. You will work closely with senior engineers to develop and validate complex electromechanical systems. Your work will directly contribute to building humanoid robots capable of operating autonomously in everyday environments.
You Will
Design and assemble simple adapter and test PCBs (e.g., programming or development adapters)
Perform bench‑level testing using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and other lab equipment
Conduct component‑level soldering and rework, including fine‑pitch and SMD parts
Tune resistor networks and study subcircuits such as encoder gain stages or power filters
Program and verify prototype boards and document any issues identified
Execute power circuit characterization, including buck‑converter load analysis and efficiency evaluation
Perform circuit simulation and analysis (SPICE or equivalent) for component selection and filter/bridge optimization
Interpret electronic component datasheets to select parts based on performance, cost, and availability
Collaborate with mechanical and firmware teams to ensure system‑level integration and functionality
Must Have
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline
Strong understanding of schematics, circuit theory, and component datasheets
Proficiency with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, and power supplies
Skilled in soldering, including fine‑pitch and surface‑mount components
Experience designing printed circuit boards (PCBs)
Basic familiarity with mechanical CAD tools
Passionate, curious, and hands‑on with a DIY or maker mindset
Experience with embedded systems and firmware fundamentals
Proficiency with Altium Designer or equivalent ECAD tools
Circuit‑simulation experience using SPICE or equivalent tools
Knowledge of power electronics, component parasitics, and system‑noise analysis
Benefits & Compensation
Salary Range: $95,000 – $140,000 + Equity
Health, dental, and vision insurance
401(k) with company match
Paid time off and holidays
