Electrical Engineer (PCB / Low Voltage)
AI Summary
Electrical Engineer designing and developing low-voltage systems and PCBs for autonomous robotic platforms, including sensor and camera integration, prototyping, testing, and cross-functional collaboration.
About this role
About the Team
Droyd builds autonomous robotic systems that automate repetitive manual work in real environments. We design and manufacture our hardware in-house, which means iteration, fabrication, and execution all happen under one roof.
Our robots rely on tightly integrated electronics for sensing, communication, and control. Our electrical engineering work spans board design, cameras, data systems, and the low-voltage infrastructure that supports the robot as a whole — highly cross-functional work, closely tied to mechanical and software development.
About the Role
As an Electrical Engineer at Droyd, you will focus on low-voltage electrical systems and PCB design for our robotic platforms. You will work on custom boards and supporting electronics for sensing, data, and system integration.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys practical board-level design and wants to see their work integrated quickly into real hardware.
This role is based on-site in San Francisco, CA.
