Tutor Intelligence is looking for a talented hardware engineer with strong electrical engineering expertise to help us design custom automation components that are both more powerful and less expensive than off-the-shelf solutions. Our robots have powerful software capabilities, and we can reap large benefits from specialized hardware tailored to our needs—often cutting costs dramatically.
You will source and evaluate electrical components (sensors, actuators, electrical assemblies) from third-party vendors, guiding decisions for current and future hardware versions. This is a great role for someone who enjoys fast prototyping cycles, working on many different electrical projects, and learning quickly. Our broader goal is to create generalized hardware that handles a variety of use cases, so every new robot deployment is faster and simpler than the last.
If you’re passionate about electrical design and want to help shape the future of automation, we’d love to hear from you.
Responsibilities
Design and prototype custom PCBs
Develop and refine motor control systems
Evaluate sensors and actuators for integration into our robotic platforms
Rapidly test and iterate on hardware concepts
Provide technical guidance on electrical components and assemblies
Qualifications
Strong electrical engineering fundamentals
Hands-on experience designing and printing custom PCBs
Familiarity with different types of motors and motor control approaches
