Senior Electrical Engineer
Job description
The Industrial Autonomy Team is seeking an electrical engineer to design and validate the core electrical architecture, schematics, and integrated PCBs powering products for autonomy and physical AI customers. Collaborating with a small hardware team, you will help shape our roadmap while taking complex systems from early prototype through high-volume manufacturing.
At Ouster, we are pioneering the future of Physical AI. Our advanced vision algorithms and cutting-edge sensor hardware power the next generation of autonomous systems - from robots to smart infrastructure - building a safer and more efficient world.
Job responsibilities
- Design and develop electrical systems for autonomy products, including schematics, component selection, and PCB layout
- Partner closely with other HW/FW engineers to bring up, debug, and validate prototype hardware
- Support hardware architecture decisions across power, compute, sensor integration, and system reliability
- Support sensor integration, signal integrity analysis, power optimization, and system-level debugging
- Partner with mechanical engineering on enclosure, thermal, connector, and integration constraints
- Work with manufacturing and supply chain teams to support prototype builds, NPI, and production ramp
- Support component qualification and vendor selection
- Document designs, test results, and engineering changes to support scalable product development
