Job description

The Senior Electrical Engineer will lead the design and development of power and motion control systems for robotic systems at Fauna Robotics, an Amazon company. This role focuses on creating a technical foundation for robots and humans to work together seamlessly. The engineer will collaborate with firmware and mechanical teams to ensure high-performance and reliable electronics. This position offers an opportunity to mentor junior engineers and drive best practices in electrical engineering.

Requirements

  • Master's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or equivalent.
  • Experience in developing functional specifications, design verification plans, and functional test procedures.
  • Strong PCB design and layout skills with an understanding of high-power circuits, signal integrity, and thermal constraints.
  • Experience with lithium-ion battery systems, BMS hardware/software, and power distribution architectures.
  • Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills, including experience with oscilloscopes, power analyzers, and motor test benches.
  • Proficiency with embedded system interfaces and experience working with STM32 microcontrollers.
  • Knowledge of EMI/EMC mitigation techniques and compliance standards for industrial or robotics systems.
  • Experience working in robotics, automotive, aerospace, or other real-time electromechanical systems.
  • Experience working with interdisciplinary teams to execute product design from concept to production.
  • Experience with the project management of technical projects.
  • Previous experience in robotics or control systems.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the design, layout, and validation of PCBs for power distribution, motor drivers, embedded systems, and sensor integration.
  • Architect and optimize power distribution and battery systems to support high-performance actuators and real-time compute workloads.
  • Develop and refine lithium-ion battery systems.
  • Develop high-efficiency system power architecture and power monitoring circuitry for the robotics platform.
  • Ensure EMI/EMC compliance, signal integrity, and thermal design best practices for high-reliability electronics.
  • Collaborate with firmware engineers on real-time control strategies for smooth, compliant motion.
  • Work with mechanical engineers to integrate thermal management solutions for batteries, high-power electronics, and motors.
  • Define the electrical architecture for real-time control, networking, and system diagnostics.
  • Support bring-up, debugging, and testing of prototype robots.
  • Work with vendors and contract manufacturers to source high-quality components and oversee production.
  • Mentor junior engineers, drive design reviews, and define electrical engineering best practices.

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.
