Electrical Engineer

Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.

We're looking for an Electrical Engineer to design the power and electronics behind the end effectors on our robots and the human-worn devices operators use to interface with them. The role spans power distribution architectures (PDBs) as well as sensor and interface electronics for cameras, encoders and MCUs. You'll work closely with mechanical and firmware engineers, moving quickly from schematic to working PCBA in a high-paced environment.

• Design Power Electronics: Design and validate power distribution boards (PDBs) and power architectures for embedded and robotic systems.

• Design Sensor Electronics: Design sensor and interface electronics for cameras, encoders, MCUs and other sensing/compute hardware.

• Own PCBA Design: Design PCBAs and wiring harnesses using Altium, including connectors for cross-subsystem interfaces.

• Select Power Components: Select and integrate regulators, battery management systems and PoE injectors within tight weight, size and thermal constraints.

• Rapidly Prototype Electronics: Prototype designs — breadboarding, proto/rework boards — to validate concepts ahead of full PCBA spins.

• Bring Up & Debug Boards: Support hardware bring-up, debugging and validation alongside the firmware team, using standard bench equipment.

• Own the BOM: Own the electrical BOM, component datasheets, and relevant safety/EMI considerations.

• Support DFM/DFA: Support design-for-manufacture and design-for-assembly as designs move from prototype toward scaled production.

• Degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering or a related field, with 4+ years' experience spanning both power and sensor/interface electronics.

• Experience with power electronics: regulators, battery management systems, Power-over-Ethernet and power distribution board design.

• Proficient in Altium for schematic capture and PCBA layout, with experience in low-voltage DC power distribution and connector/harness design.

• Understanding of sensor and communication interfaces: SPI, MIPI, I2C, CAN, EtherCAT and Ethernet.

• Capable of rapid electronics prototyping and comfortable bringing up and debugging PCBAs using standard bench equipment.

• Comfortable working in a high-paced, hands-on hardware engineering environment.
  Nice to have

  • FPGA design experience

  • Experience designing electronics for wearable or compact human-worn products

  • Thermal management experience for compact, sealed enclosures

  • Exposure to EMC/safety certification processes

• Competitive equity: stock options with meaningful upside as we scale.

• 30+ paid days off, including 23 days of annual leave, all UK bank holidays, and additional company closure days (including Christmas–New Year shutdown).

• Private healthcare, including virtual and in-person care.

• Pension scheme with 8% total contribution (5% employee, 3% employer) on full earnings.

• Free daily breakfast, catered lunch, and snacks in-office.

• Work at the frontier - collaborate daily with world-class engineers, researchers, and product experts building the next generation of AI and humanoid robotics.

• Real ownership - direct access to founding leadership, meaningful input on product direction, and the ability to drive key initiatives from day one.
