R2250As a **Senior Staff Electrical Engineer** at Boston Dynamics, you will play a pivotal role in the evolution of Atlas, our advanced humanoid robot. You will join a fast-moving team tackling the challenges of integrating high-performance wireless connectivity and ensuring electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) within a densely packed and complex electromechanical system.Boston Dynamics is seeking candidates with deep design experience integrating radio modules/antennas and experience with ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing/mitigation. You will work hands-on — from the bench to the test chamber — building, debugging, and validating systems ranging from component-level prototypes to fully integrated humanoid robots.The ideal candidate will have expert-level proficiency in developing embedded systems with wireless modules/antennas and have knowledge of EMC testing as well as radio and/or antenna array integration. To thrive in this role, you must be able to work efficiently on multiple development threads in separate, evolving contexts. **How you will make an impact / Day-to-Day Activities:*** Lead the design of electrical schematics and layouts incorporating power, analog, microprocessor, radio modules, and antennas* Own the EMI/EMC and RF validation lifecycle, including testing strategy, contribute significantly to regulatory compliance efforts (e.g. Intentional Radiator, Immunity/Susceptibility), and manage relationships with 3rd party test labs.* Define and drive design architecture, component strategy, and design validation plans for complex, multi-board systems* Work cross-functionally with electrical, mechanical, and software engineers to design and optimize radio/antenna performance in a challenging, metal-rich mechanical environment* Debug electrical and radio communication issues to root cause and develop improvements* Utilize Linux command-line tools and scripting (Python/Bash/etc.) to configure radios/networks, execute tools, and automate testing* Provide mentorship to junior and mid-level engineers on best practices, design methods, and development workflows* Develop comprehensive design documents and test plans/reports**We are looking for / You Bring:***It is not expected that candidates would possess all of these qualifications.** Experience: 7+ years of proficiency / demonstrated architectural leadership designing PCBAs incorporating wireless communications subsystems using Altium or similar CAD tools* RF & EMC Expertise: Expert grasp of EMI/EMC mitigation strategies in high-speed/high-power environments, and a deep knowledge of RF fundamentals (link budget, antenna tuning, coexistence).* OS & Networking: Proficiency with Linux command line and computer networking concepts* Fabrication Knowledge: Strong knowledge of PCB fabrication, assembly, and signal integrity* Scripting: Competency with Python, LabView, and/or MATLAB* Education: BS or MS (preferred) in Electrical Engineering or related field**Nice to have:*** Simulation: Experience with RF/EMI simulation tools such as ANSYS HFSS* Advanced Testing: Proficiency operating advanced RF test equipment (VNAs, Spectrum Analyzers, Anritsu MT8000A/MT8862)* Wireless Standards: Experience using
WiFi and Cellular standards and protocols* High-Speed Digital: Experience implementing ethernet, PCIe, or other high speed data technologies*We are interested in every qualified candidate who is eligible to work in the United States. However, we are not able to sponsor visas for this position.*The base pay range for this position is between $114,195.28 to $181,175.20 annually. Base pay will depend on multiple individualized factors including, but not limited to internal equity, job related knowledge, skills and experience.
This range represents a good faith estimate of compensation at the time of posting. Boston Dynamics offers a generous Benefits package including medical, dental vision, 401(k), paid time off and a annual bonus structure.
Additional details regarding these benefit plans will be provided if an employee receives an offer for employment. #J-18808-Ljbffr
