Job summary

Coram AI in Sunnyvale, CA is seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to own the electrical design of edge-AI devices. You will take embedded SoCs from vendors and turn reference designs into production hardware that runs inference at the edge in rugged environments.

You’ll lead board design, bring-up, validation, and the embedded platform, including BSPs and drivers, while ensuring power, signaling, and regulatory requirements are met.

Qualifications

• Own board design end-to-end from schematic to layout and reviews.
• Evaluate embedded chipsets from vendors and adapt reference designs for production.
• Own bring-up, validation, and EMC/regulatory pre-compliance.
• Design for PoE power, protection, interfaces, and thermal in sealed enclosures.
• Lifecycle from prototype through EVT/DVT/PVT and field deployment.
• Manage vendor relationships to ensure on-time delivery.

Responsibilities

• Own board design end-to-end: architecture, component selection, schematic capture, PCB layout, and design reviews for edge-inferencing cameras, intercoms, door readers, and access control hardware
• Evaluate embedded chipsets, work from vendor reference designs and EVKs, and adapt them into production designs that meet our cost, power, and form-factor targets
• Own board bring-up and validation: power sequencing, signal integrity, sensor and peripheral bring-up, functional test development, and EMC/regulatory pre-compliance
• Own the embedded platform on your boards: BSP, bootloader, device trees, drivers, and the base image, so the hardware you design boots, streams, and updates in the field
• Design for the environments our products live in: PoE power budgets, surge and ESD protection, audio paths for intercoms, reader and controller interfaces (OSDP, Wiegand, RS-485), and thermal behavior inside sealed enclosures
• Own the full product lifecycle from prototype through EVT/DVT/PVT, vendor handoff, and field deployment
• Manage vendor and supplier relationships to ensure on-time, high-quality delivery
• Be a proactive self-starter: take initiative, act with urgency, and bring a scrappy, hands-on approach to problem solving in fast-moving environments
