Job summary

1X is seeking an Electrical Engineer to develop and validate electrical prototypes for NEO, turning concepts into buildable hardware. You will collaborate with the Prototyping team to ensure robust electrical designs that work in real-world robotic environments.

You will read and create schematics, wire harness documentation, and work with technicians to resolve issues discovered during assembly. This role emphasizes hands-on testing, iteration, and manufacturability improvements.

Qualifications

• 3-7 years of experience in electrical engineering or a related hands-on hardware development role.
• Experience developing and debugging electrical prototypes, harnesses, or cable assemblies.
• Ability to read and create electrical schematics and wiring documentation.
• Experience using measurement tools to test continuity and diagnose electrical faults.
• Experience working with technicians or fabrication partners to build, test, and iterate on hardware.

Responsibilities

• Develop and validate electrical prototypes and harnessing solutions for NEO, turning designs into reliable, buildable hardware.
• Bridge the gap between electrical design and physical builds, using learnings from prototypes and testing to improve iterations.
• Develop electrical prototypes, wire harnesses, and cable assembly designs to support testing and iteration.
• Translate schematics into build documentation and collaborate with technicians to resolve issues found during assembly.
• Plan and run continuity and fault-isolation testing, identifying opens, shorts, and connection issues before hardware moves downstream.
• Debug issues on prototypes and on the robot, then make practical design or documentation changes based on findings.
• Improve recurring builds through better documentation, fixturing, and design-for-manufacturability work with the wider team.
• Partner across engineering and fabrication to move from early prototypes toward reliable, repeatable assemblies.
