Job description

Can-Ex Technologies is redefining how sewer and underground infrastructure inspections are performed. Through a tightly integrated stack of advanced hardware, embedded systems, edgecomputing, and SaaS, we enable municipalities, contractors, and engineers to collect higher-quality inspection datafaster, morereliably, and at scale.

We are now strengthening the electronics foundation of our product line. This role is a founding opportunity toarchitectand own the electronicsystems thatpowerour next generation of inspection devices.

The Role

As a Senior Electronics Designer, you will own the full electronics lifecycle of our productsfromarchitecture andcomponentselectiontoPCBdesign, validation, production release, and field performance monitoring.

You will design robust, production-gradeelectronics thatoperatein harsh real-world environments. Your work will directlyimpactdevice reliability, manufacturability, scalability, and long-termproduct viability.

You will collaborate closely with embedded software, mechanical engineering,manufacturing, supply chain, and product teams to ensure seamless integration from prototype to production at scale.

If you enjoy seeing a board go from concept to a shipped device used daily in the field, this role is for you.This is not a layout-only role. This is end-to-end hardware ownership.

This role will influence our long-term hardware architecture as we scale our device fleet globally.

WhatYou’llDo

• Architect electronic systems for embedded edge devices
• Own the full electronics development lifecycle: architecture,componentselection, schematic capture, PCB layout, validation, and production release
• Design multilayer PCBs for embedded systems, including power management, high-speed interfaces, communication buses, and sensor integration
• Select andvalidatekey components (MCUs, SoCs, PMICs, sensors, connectors, cables, protection circuits) with cost, performance, and long-term availability in mind
• Design robust power architectures (battery systems, charging circuits, regulation, protection)
• Ensure signal integrity and EMC/EMI robustness for real-world deployment
• Define and execute board bring-up, debugging, validation, and environmental testing protocols
• Drive DFM/DFT improvements and prepare production documentation (BOM, manufacturing files, test procedures)
• Work directly with PCB manufacturers and EMS partners to support production ramp-up and resolve manufacturing issues
• Support hardware iterations based on field feedback and failure analysis

Who You Are

• A systems thinker who understands electronics as part of acomplete device ecosystem
• Comfortable owning hardwarefrom blank page to deployed fleet
• Detail-oriented and rigorous in validation and testing
• Pragmatic in design choices—balancing performance, cost, availability, and manufacturability
• Strong collaborator across embedded, mechanical, andmanufacturingteams
• Energized by building foundational hardware in a scalingcompany
• Not afraid to make decisions with long-term consequences—and stand behind them

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or related field. Or equivalent experience
• 5+ yearsof experience in electronic hardware design and PCB development
• Strong experience with schematic capture and PCB layout tools (Altium,KiCad, or equivalent)
• Solid understanding of power electronics, analog and digital circuit design
• Experience with high-speed interfaces (USB, Ethernet, CSI, SPI, I2C, UART, etc.)
• Experience with embedded processors or SoCs (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson, ARM-based platforms, or similar)
• Hands-on experience with PCB bring-up, lab debugging (oscilloscope, logic analyzer, power analysis tools)
• Experience preparing boards formanufacturingand working with EMS partners
• Knowledge of EMC/EMI considerations and product validation best practices
• Experience leading at least one hardware product from concept to production

Why Join Us?

• Founding impact – You will define the electronics backbone of our product line
• Real-world hardware – Your boards will ship andoperatedaily in the field
• Technical depth – Work across electronics, embedded systems, mechanical integration, and edge AI
• Growth – Be part of a fast-scalingcompany solvingreal infrastructure challenges
• Autonomy & trust – You own the hardware decisions, not just execute tasks
• Strong product culture – High standards, clear ownership, meaningful impact
