About the position

The Robotics Electrical Engineer at Amazon Robotics will be part of a dynamic team focused on designing, building, and delivering advanced robotic systems. This role involves working on servo motor driven subsystems, board design revisions, and developing code for various platforms. The engineer will also contribute to operations by creating diagnostic tools and documentation to support high complexity system installations.

Responsibilities

• Work with an interdisciplinary team to execute new servo motor driven subsystems from concept to production including design, verification, certification and field support.
• Execute board design revisions: schematic updates, layout updates, coordination of BOM and build procurement.
• Develop code for board bring-up and manufacturing functional test using multiple programming languages, including C, Python, PLC Structured Text, LabView on PC, PLC, and embedded processor platforms.
• Drive, motor and encoder subject matter expert: deep-dive drive electronics issues, optimize drive configuration, develop and execute tests to verify functionality.
• Cabling design, fabrication, documentation, and QC ownership to aid integration of new motors and sensors.
• Develop field support hardware diagnostics tools, documents, and training to resolve issues in high complexity FC system installations.

Requirements

• BS in Electrical Engineering or similar field.
• 1-3 years of experience working with custom industrial motor drive electronics with Ethernet or EtherCAT based fieldbus communications.
• 1-3 years of experience with schematic entry and layout tools, preferably Altium.
• 1-3 years of experience with common laboratory equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, bench supplies).
• 1-3 years of experience with new board bring up and debug (either hardware or software).
• 1-3 years of experience with Python and C, with the ability to transition to new languages and platforms.
• 1-3 years of experience building with quick prototype platforms (Arduino, Raspberry Pi, etc.).

Nice-to-haves

• Knowledge of engineering practices and patterns for the full development life cycle (software, hardware, networks).
• Experience with hardware and software integration, and real-time systems.
• Experience with robotics and/or factory automation.

Benefits

• Medical, Dental, and Vision Coverage
• Maternity and Parental Leave Options
• Paid Time Off (PTO)
