About the role

About Menlo

Menlo Research is an Applied R&D lab building Asimov, an open-source humanoid robot platform, and the full software stack that powers it. Our mission is to make humanoid labor economically viable -- turning software into physical labor at scale. We build across the full stack: hardware architecture, locomotion, autonomy, simulation, and infrastructure. We move fast, ship to real robots, and open-source everything we can. If you want your work to matter beyond a paper or a demo, this is the place.

The Role

As an Electrical Engineer, you will own the design, integration, and bring-up of the electronic systems that power Asimov. From power distribution to motor control to sensor integration, you will work across schematics, PCB layouts, harness design, and hardware debug -- ensuring every electrical decision holds up in the field and integrates cleanly with the broader mechanical and firmware stack.

What You'll Do

Design and review schematics and PCB layouts for power distribution units, motor driver boards, and actuator control electronics

Integrate wiring harnesses, PCBA enclosures, and motor controllers into mechanical assemblies from the ground up

Lead bring-up of power systems, sensors, and actuator subassemblies; diagnose and resolve issues across multiple hardware revisions

Define and run electrical and system-level test protocols, analyze failure modes, and iterate based on test data

Work closely with firmware and controls teams to ensure electrical design choices support stable, low-latency control loops

Apply expertise in connector selection, grounding strategies, harness routing, and EMI suppression to ensure robust and field-reliable hardware

Contribute to Menlo's open-source design efforts, including PCB schematics and manufacturing documentation for the broader robotics community

What You'll Bring

3 or more years of hands-on electrical engineering experience on high-complexity electromechanical products

Solid understanding of electrical and electronic systems, including motor drivers, sensors, and embedded hardware integration

Deep familiarity with low-voltage (under 60V) DC power systems, DC-DC converters, MOSFET gate drivers, current-sense amplifiers, and passive network design

Proficiency using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and CAN/UART sniffers for in-depth hardware debug

Expertise in connector selection, grounding strategies, harness routing, and EMI suppression techniques

Strong communication skills to drive alignment across firmware teams, mechanical engineers, and leadership

Bonus points for:

Experience with bipedal or humanoid robot hardware or legged locomotion platforms

Familiarity with CAN bus, motor controllers, and how electrical design choices affect firmware and control integration

Scripting experience in Python for hardware automation and data analysis

Familiarity with sim-to-real workflows and how hardware decisions affect locomotion policy training and transfer

Requirements

·3 or more years of hands-on electrical engineering experience on high-complexity electromechanical products
