About the Job

Requirements

A Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering or equivalent is required.
Seven or more years of hands-on embedded-systems experience focused on systems design involving motor control, analog systems, power electronics, sensors, microcontrollers, systems-on-chip, or graphics processing units.
Direct knowledge of applications and technologies in industrial robotics, autonomous mobile robots, humanoids, drones, and white goods.
Ability to interface with customers to gather information and provide technical guidance on designs leveraging company technologies.
Ability to decipher circuit diagrams and semiconductor specifications.
Experience authoring and publishing white papers, articles, internal documents such as market requirements documents and product requirements documents, or external content such as webinars.
Ability to travel approximately 25%, including occasional travel to Europe, South America, and Asia, as well as other locations in the United States.

Responsibilities

Serve as the embedded-technology subject-matter expert for robotics and drone applications and subsystems, including motor control (brushless DC, permanent magnet synchronous motor, servo systems, and field-oriented control algorithms), power electronics (gate drivers, metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors, signal conditioning, and inverter control), embedded control (microcontrollers, microprocessors, and real-time control), and sensors (vision, LiDAR, and ultrasonic).
Analyze market trends, architectures, and competitive solutions in industrial robotics and aerial systems.
Define application reference architectures for robotic arms, autonomous mobile robots, autonomous guided vehicles, drones, white goods, and power tools using relevant company solutions.
Translate product features into customer value propositions focused on performance, efficiency, safety, cost, and scalability.
Develop technical positioning, differentiation, and competitive battlecards.
Influence the product roadmap by conveying customer and market requirements to engineering and product management.
Support key customer engagements alongside sales and field application engineers through technical presentations, architecture reviews, design-in support, and concept validation.
Act as a technical bridge between customers and internal research and development teams.
Gather voice-of-customer feedback from robotics and drone original equipment manufacturers.
Create technical collateral, including application notes, white papers, reference designs, evaluation guides, and system block diagrams.
Deliver technical training for internal sales teams and partners.
Support product launches with demonstrations, webinars, and conference presentations.
Engage with industry ecosystems, including ROS/ROS2, PX4 Autopilot, industrial fieldbuses, image sensors, and ultrasonic sensors.
Represent the company at industry events, including embedded-systems and robotics expos, drone conferences, and technical forums.
Work with partners on joint solutions and ecosystem enablement.

Desired Qualifications

An MBA or graduate degree in a related area is a plus.
