Job description

Asia's leading robotics solutions provider, automating enterprise supply chains since 2017. We build syncOS - the industry-first no-code platform that lets manufacturers and warehouse operators integrate, reprogram, and scale automation systems without halting production or calling in specialists. Our autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) run 24/7 for global brands - transforming production lines in hours, not weeks. As Botsync scales its AMR fleet across more demanding industrial environments, this L3 role owns the power systems and actuation architecture that keep every robot running reliably - from motor drive electronics to battery and power distribution design.

The key responsibilities include:

• Power and actuation system design
• Design, develop, and validate power distribution, motor drive, and actuation systems for Botsync's AMR platforms during customer-specific adoption projects
• Own architecture decisions for power systems and actuation subsystems (motor drivers, power distribution, battery/BMS interfaces) across Botsync AMR products
• Design and validate power electronics PCBs (motor drivers, power distribution boards, battery interface boards) integrated into AMRs deployed across various industrial environments
• Analyze and author PCB schematics for power and actuation subsystems, ensuring electrical design aligns with system-level requirements
• Validation, testing and production support
• Diagnose and resolve issues at both the power electronics and firmware levels during lab validation, pilot runs, and field deployments
• Design and implement test tools and validation strategies to streamline manufacturing and ensure hardware quality
• Investigate and close issues arising during AMR production, with a focus on repeatability and long-term reliability
• Document power and actuation system designs using flowcharts, state diagrams, logic breakdowns, and structured test results
• Technical leadership
• Set technical direction for power systems and actuation architecture across current and future AMR platforms
• Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior hardware engineers on power electronics and actuation design
• Own component selection, vendor evaluation, and design-for-manufacturing decisions for power and actuation subsystems

Essential

• Essential 5 - 8 years of experience in robotics, mechatronics, or related fields
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, or a comparable discipline
• Deep expertise in motor control (DC motors, brushless/BLDC motors, servo systems) - driver circuit design, current sensing, and closed-loop control at the hardware level
• Power electronics design experience: DC-DC converters, motor drivers, battery management systems (BMS), power distribution architecture, and protection circuits (overcurrent, overvoltage, thermal)
• Embedded C/C++ experience for implementing motor control and power management firmware on microcontrollers (ARM Cortex-M, STM32, or similar)
• Comfortable authoring and reading PCB schematics for power electronics, including layout considerations for thermal management and high-current traces
• Skilled at using lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power supplies, clamp meters, and multimeters
• Prior experience owning a power or actuation subsystem end-to-end, from concept through production, at a senior level

Highly desirable

• Hands-on knowledge of CANBus, Modbus RTU/TCP, RS485/RS232, and other industrial communication protocols (UART, SPI, I2C, Ethernet) for actuator and system communication
• Working knowledge of ROS 1 or ROS 2
• Exposure to robotics safety standards (ISO 13849, ISO 3691)
• Experience with version control systems like Git
• Basic understanding of TCP/IP and UDP networking concepts

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• Comprehensive health benefits package
• Hustle of a young startup, always something to do and something to improve
• Opportunities for professional development and growth into management roles
• Collaborative and inclusive work environment
