Senior Electrical Engineer – Manufacturing Integration

Join to apply for the Senior Electrical Engineer – Manufacturing Integration role at Foundation.

Foundation is developing the future of general purpose robotics with the goal to address the labor shortage.

Our mission is to create advanced robots that can operate in complex environments, reducing human risk in conflict zones and enhancing efficiency in labor‑intensive industries.

We are on the lookout for extraordinary engineers and scientists to join our team. Your previous experience in robotics isn’t a prerequisite — it’s your talent and determination that truly count.

We expect that many of our team members will bring diverse perspectives from various industries and fields. We are looking for individuals with a proven record of exceptional ability and a history of creating things that work.

Our Culture

We like to be frank and honest about who we are, so that people can decide for themselves if this is a culture they resonate with. Please read more about our culture here https : / / foundation.bot / culture.

Who should join

  • You like working in person with a team in San Francisco.
  • You deeply believe that this is the most important mission for humanity and needs to happen yesterday.
  • You are highly technical - regardless of the role you are in.
  • You care about aesthetics and design inside out. If it’s not the best product ever, it bothers you, and you need to “fix” it.
  • You don’t need someone to motivate you; you get things done.

What Kind of Person We Are Looking For

  • Collaborate with the design and compute teams to refine PCBAs, wiring harnesses, and electrical subsystems for manufacturability, serviceability, and cost efficiency.
  • Lead DFM and DFA reviews for electrical and compute assemblies, ensuring smooth transition from prototype to production.
  • Design, validate, and support electrical test systems, including automated end‑of‑line test setups and diagnostic fixtures.
  • Drive root‑cause analysis and resolution of electrical integration issues in assembly and production environments.
  • Support layout and design updates for custom compute boards, actuator control boards, and sensor interfaces as needed.
  • Develop and maintain electrical process documentation—schematics, harness routing, test procedures, troubleshooting guides, and safety protocols.
  • Collaborate with mechanical and software teams to validate full electromechanical integration, thermal performance, and EMI / ESD compliance.
  • Lead or support scaling initiatives, including design transfer, process qualification, and vendor validation.
  • Identify and implement automation and data‑driven improvements in test coverage, yield, and line throughput.
  • Required Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience in Electrical Engineering, with a mix of design and manufacturing / test experience (preferably robotics, automotive, or aerospace).
  • Strong understanding of PCB design, wiring harness integration, and embedded systems.
  • Hands‑on experience with test automation, data acquisition systems, and diagnostic tools (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.).
  • Knowledge of manufacturing test methodologies, DFM / DFA principles, and electrical safety compliance.
  • Experience working with cross‑functional teams (mechanical, firmware, manufacturing, and supply chain) to deliver integrated systems.
  • Ability to debug complex electrical issues at both system and board levels.
  • Familiarity with high‑speed interfaces, power electronics, and thermal management is a strong plus.
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
  • We provide market standard benefits (health, vision, dental, 401k, etc.). Join us for the culture and the mission, not for the benefits.
  • The annual compensation is expected to be between $150,000 - $1,000,000. Exact compensation may vary based on skills, experience, and location.
