This role is W2 hourly with Roth Staffing (Ultimate Staffing and Ledgent Tech are divisions of Roth Staffing). The rate range is $40.00 - $58.62. Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the United States. The company is not able to sponsor employment visas now or in the future.

What You Will Do

• Lead the electrical design and development of a major robotic subsystem.
• Translate product and system needs into electrical requirements, interfaces, and designs.
• Develop complex PCBAs, including schematic design, component selection, and rigid, flex, and rigid-flex board designs.
• Perform PCB layout reviews, board bring-up, characterization, testing, and debugging using Altium.
• Integrate electrical hardware with embedded software, mechanical components, and the broader robotic system.
• Lead technical tradeoff decisions involving performance, safety, reliability, manufacturability, cost, and risk.
• Develop verification and EMC test strategies and support testing at external laboratories or other Stryker facilities.
• Troubleshoot complex electrical and multidisciplinary system issues.
• Support design documentation, risk management, design transfer, and product commercialization.

What You Need

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related engineering discipline is required.
• Five or more years of professional electrical engineering experience is required.

Preferred Qualifications

• Advanced PCBA design experience, including schematic design, component selection, layout review, board bring-up, and debugging.
• Proficiency with Altium and experience with rigid, flex, or rigid-flex board designs.
• Experience integrating electrical hardware with software, mechanical systems, and system-level requirements.
• Knowledge of EMC/EMI design, testing, troubleshooting, and design for manufacturability.
• Experience developing complex electromechanical, robotic, medical, or other technically sophisticated products.
• Experience guiding products from requirements and concept development through verification, transfer, and commercialization.
