Job description
Dexmate is building the foundation for physical AI — combining a new generation of robots with a universal Physical AI OS, making robots as easy to build and deploy as software. Today, robotics is fragmented, slow, and closed: most builders are forced to reinvent the same stack again and again, and most ideas never make it past the prototype stage. We exist to change that. Our mission is to democratize robotics by lowering the barrier to entry, delivering a plug-and-play platform for developers, researchers, and enterprises, and cultivating an open ecosystem that accelerates the evolution of physical AI.
Job responsibilities
- Own end-to-end design of power electronics subsystems: battery management, power distribution, protection circuits, and DC-DC conversion
- Design and validate motor drive circuits for high-performance actuation, including FOC/BLDC/PMSM control topologies
- Design sensor integration circuits for IMUs, encoders, hall-effect sensors, force/torque sensors, and thermal sensors
- Create schematics and multi-layer PCB layouts using industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Altium, Cadence Allegro, KiCad), owning the full cycle from concept through layout review, prototype bring-up, and production release
- Perform circuit simulation (LTspice or equivalent) and systematic hardware validation using oscilloscopes, current probes, power analyzers, and spectrum analyzers
- Apply EMI/EMC design principles from the start; support FCC, CE, and UL certification as we move toward commercial deployment
- Drive DFM/DFA decisions to ensure designs are manufacturable and testable at production scale
- Instrument boards and conduct board-level bring-up, power-on sequencing, and subsystem verification
Job requirements
- 5+ years of electrical engineering experience in robotics, industrial automation, automotive, or consumer electronics — with at least one product shipped to production
- Hands-on PCB design experience in industry-standard EDA tools (Altium, Cadence Allegro, KiCad, or equivalent) for complex, multi-layer boards with high-speed digital, power, and mixed-signal on the same design
- Proven experience designing power electronics: BMS, power distribution, protection circuits, or DC-DC conversion
- Motor drive design experience — BLDC, PMSM, or servo drive circuits, ideally with FOC topology
- Strong bench skills: oscilloscope, current probe, power analyzer, logic/spectrum analyzer, signal integrity debug
- Ability to read and interpret electronic circuit diagrams; comfortable integrating sensors and actuators
- Experience with DFM/DFA and working directly with contract manufacturers
- Experience designing complex multilayer PCBs (8+ layers), including controlled impedance routing, mixed-signal design, and high-speed differential pairs
