At WHOOP, we're on a mission to unlock and inspire performance for life. WHOOP empowers members to perform at a higher level through a deeper understanding of their bodies and daily lives.
WHOOP is hiring a Senior Electrical Engineer to play a key role in the design and development of next-generation charging platforms and supporting hardware for WHOOP wearable technology. As a member of the Hardware Engineering team, you will own critical electrical designs and subsystems, translating product and system requirements into robust, highly integrated hardware. You will work closely with Electrical, Mechanical, Firmware, Systems, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Product teams to make design tradeoffs, develop and validate new hardware, and bring complex electrical systems from early development through high-volume production.
RESPONSIBILITIES:Own electrical designs and subsystems, translating system requirements into electrical specifications, component selections, schematics, and production-ready hardware
Design highly integrated, miniaturized, low-power, mixed-signal electronics, making thoughtful tradeoffs across performance, power, size, cost, reliability, manufacturability, and schedule
Drive electrical designs from concept through schematic capture, PCB layout and design review, prototype bring-up, characterization, debugging, design iteration, verification, and production
Partner closely with Electrical, Mechanical, Firmware, Systems, Manufacturing, and other engineering teams to define interfaces, contribute to system-level tradeoffs, and ensure electrical designs perform reliably within the complete product
Evaluate new components, technologies, and design approaches that enable future product capabilities and improve electrical system performance
Support NPI and high-volume manufacturing by partnering with Manufacturing, Supply Chain, suppliers, and contract manufacturers on design for manufacturability, functional testing, failure analysis, and production ramp
Travel up to 15% domestically and internationally to collaborate with partners, suppliers, and contract manufacturers
Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
5+ years of relevant electrical engineering experience, with demonstrated ownership of electrical hardware designs from concept through prototype, validation, and production
Strong electrical engineering fundamentals across analog and digital circuit design, power architecture and power management, component selection, communication interfaces, and debugging of complex electrical systems
Demonstrated experience designing highly integrated electronics, including schematic capture, PCB design and layout review, and making component- and subsystem-level design tradeoffs
Experience with ECAD tools such as Altium or equivalent tools
Strong hands-on hardware development skills, including prototype bring-up, circuit characterization, debugging, and use of electrical test and measurement equipment
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to independently drive ambiguous technical problems and communicate design decisions effectively across multidisciplinary teams
Strong commitment to embracing and leveraging AI tools in day-to-day tasks, ensuring AI-assisted work aligns with the same high-quality standards as personal contributions.
