About Mind

Mind Robotics is building Physical AI for real-world industrial deployment, starting with the factory floor. We believe the hardest problems in AI are solved when researchers and engineers are hands-on with the physical world every day - and we're looking for people who are passionate about robotics, value ownership, and are excited to tackle difficult problems. Join us if you want to move beyond digital intelligence and put intelligence into motion.

About the Role


We're seeking a hands-on Electrical Design Engineers to design, build, and scale complex electrical systems. In this role, you will own the full design lifecycle—architecting boards, debugging prototypes in the lab, and working directly with manufacturers to bring high-reliability robots to market at scale.

Responsibilities
  • Design and develop complex electrical systems, including power distribution, sensor integration, and motor drive systems.

  • Execute full-cycle PCB development—schematic capture, component selection, multi-layer layout, and manufacturing file generation (Altium, KiCad, or OrCAD).

  • Assemble, test, and debug initial prototypes.

  • Work closely with firmware and mechanical engineers to define connectors, pinouts, and physical constraints.

  • Develop specifications and accelerated test plans to validate the product for its lifetime.

  • Interface with PCB fabricators and component suppliers to ensure timely delivery and DFM.

Qualifications
  • Technical degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.

  • 5+ years of experience (or equivalent "hard tech" projects) building complex electromechanical systems and sensors.

  • Deep understanding of DC-DC converters, EMI/EMC mitigation, and standard communication protocols (I2C, SPI, CAN bus, UART).

  • Experience with hardware validation cycles, debug and measurement methods.

  • Experience with wire harnesses, cabling & connectors.

  • Experience designing for volume processes and working with contract manufacturers.

  • You are comfortable with ambiguity, move fast, and have an "engineering curiosity" that drives you to understand how the entire system works, not just your part.

What you need to know about the San Francisco Tech Scene

San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area attracts more startup funding than any other region in the world. Home to Stanford University and UC Berkeley, leading VC firms and several of the world’s most valuable companies, the Bay Area is the place to go for anyone looking to make it big in the tech industry. That said, San Francisco has a lot to offer beyond technology thanks to a thriving art and music scene, excellent food and a short drive to several of the country’s most beautiful recreational areas.

Key Facts About San Francisco Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 365,500; 13.9% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Google, Apple, Salesforce, Meta
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, cloud computing, fintech, consumer technology, software
  • Funding Landscape: $50.5 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, Bessemer Venture Partners, Greylock Partners, Khosla Ventures, Kleiner Perkins
  • Research Centers and Universities: Stanford University; University of California, Berkeley; University of San Francisco; Santa Clara University; Ames Research Center; Center for AI Safety; California Institute for Regenerative Medicine
