Job description

The Senior Embedded Electrical Engineer will be a key member of the Manipulation Robotics group, responsible for designing the electrical architecture of robotic systems and grasping tools. This role involves influencing hardware strategy and collaborating with various engineering teams to develop integrated electromechanical packages. The engineer will work on complex challenges related to packaging, thermal design, and scalability while mentoring junior engineers. This position offers the opportunity to shape the future of robotic manipulation systems at Amazon.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or equivalent
  • 8+ years of experience in electrical hardware design, including analog and digital circuit design
  • Experience with schematic capture, PCB layout, and design for manufacturability using industry EDA tools
  • Extensive experience architecting complex electromechanical products with a strong emphasis on tight packaging and scalability
  • Expert-level experience with power electronics and BLDC motor drives
  • Experience designing electronics for robotic or mechatronic systems
  • Experience with embedded systems at the board level
  • Experience managing or directing external EE design firms and contract manufacturers
  • Track record of growing junior engineers through mentorship and design reviews

Responsibilities

  • Influence hardware and electrical strategy across the Manipulation Robotics group and adjacent programs
  • Own the electrical architecture and board-level design for robotic arm systems and end-of-arm tooling
  • Design tightly integrated electromechanical packages, embedding sensors, cameras, and control electronics
  • Perform schematic capture, component selection, and PCB layout
  • Select and qualify components based on performance, cost, reliability, and supply-chain resilience
  • Define electrical interfaces between subsystems and coordinate with EE teams on adjacent programs
  • Partner with systems engineers to comprehend and influence requirements and performance targets
  • Build and debug prototypes on the bench; develop test plans and validation procedures
  • Engage with contractors, vendors, and contract manufacturers for board fabrication and assembly
  • Aid product releases to manufacturing, including DFM/DFT reviews and production ramp

Benefits

  • Employees at Amazon are often offered comprehensive health benefits—including multiple medical plan options (no pre-existing condition exclusions, 100% covered in-network preventive care), dental and vision plans, a 24/7 medical advice line from day one, expert second-opinion services, and broad mental-health support with several free counseling sessions (including pediatric). Financial wellness typically includes a 401(k) with company match (up to 2%), Restricted Stock Units (equity), FSAs, an emergency savings program, product and partner discounts, and even college-savings and home-purchase programs. Overall, the package is designed to support employees and their families’ health, finances, and day-to-day life.
