After breaking every “loud” product on the market through routine outdoor use, the idea of the Turtlebox was born in our garage, not as a business but just for personal use. Nothing else could get the job done.Most portable speakers aren’t actually meant for the outdoors and can’t withstand the elements, the ones that can aren’t loud enough to be heard. When you’re at the beach or on an ATV, you need sound to carry in order to hear it over the wind, waves, and boat engines, you need a Turtlebox.We soon realized that there was a huge need for the Turtlebox among likeminded adventurers and our journey began to set out to make the world’s loudest most rugged outdoor portable speaker.Click here for a peek inside our workplace!Role Overview\r\nAt Turtlebox, we build speakers that are meant to be used — not babied. Muddy job sites, boat docks, beach days, tailgates, hiking trails. Our products go where others don't, and they keep performing when others tap out.The electrical systems behind that performance are everything. Audio signal paths that sound great at max volume. Battery systems that last a full weekend. Bluetooth that connects in the middle of nowhere. Charging that keeps up with how people actually use gear. None of that happens by accident — it's engineered.We're looking for an Electrical Engineer who wants to own all of it. From the first whiteboard sketch to the last production build — and everywhere in between. You'll set the electrical direction for our products, make the key calls, and be accountable for what ships. This isn't a role where you contribute to someone else's vision. You define it, you build it, you own it.This role demands someone who's as comfortable at the bench as they are in the design tool — prototyping, reworking boards, and debugging in the lab are as much a part of the job as architecture decisions and design reviews.We're also in a team-building phase, which means this role will evolve. Today that includes directing external development partners and driving their work to Turtlebox standards. Over time, you'll take on increasing direct ownership as we build more capability in-house. If you want real ownership, the chance to shape how an engineering team is built, and a product people genuinely love using — this is it.Own Electrical SystemsOwn electrical system architecture from concept through production — you are the decision-makerTake full technical ownership of all PCBA, battery systems, power management, and audio signal path development — working through external partners today, with increasing direct ownership as Turtlebox builds in-house capabilityDefine and approve system architecture and make key component decisionsEvaluate tradeoffs across performance, power consumption, cost, and reliabilityDefine and maintain electrical design standards, best practices, and documentation across productsBuild Products That PerformDesign for durability, waterproofing, and real-world reliabilityEngineer for harsh environments (temperature, moisture, vibration, impact)Validate designs in real-world environments, not just lab conditionsTranslate field failures and customer feedback into design improvementsDirect External Development PartnersServe as Turtlebox's primary technical interface with external development partners — you own the relationship and the outcomesSet priorities, review designs, and hold partners accountable for quality, schedule, and technical accuracyTranslate product requirements into clear technical inputs and acceptance criteria — and accept or reject deliverables accordinglyEscalate and resolve issues before they reach productionDrive Cross-Functional ExecutionWork cross-functionally with product, mechanical, firmware, and operations teamsCollaborate closely with the Design Engineering team on ECAD–MCAD integration through fit checks, joint design reviews, prototyping, and final productionAct as the internal subject matter expert for all electrical decisions — you are the senior electrical voice on every product decisionFirmware Troubleshooting & System IntegrationDebug complex system-level issues across hardware, firmware, and connectivitySupport Bluetooth performance, connectivity, and power optimizationIdentify and resolve root causes across hardware/firmware boundariesValidation & TestingOwn electrical validation strategy and test plan development — defining reliability, performance, and safety test requirements for electrical systems across all productsOwn reliability and performance testing methodologies#J-18808-Ljbffr","company":"Turtlebox","rawCompany":"turtlebox","city":"Houston","state":"TX","isRemote":false,"isActive":false,"createdAt":"2026-10-04T01:34:12.569Z","occupations":[{"code":"17-2071.00","title":"Electrical Engineers","slug":"electrical-engineers"},{"code":"17-2072.00","title":"Electronics Engineers, Except Computer","slug":"electronics-engineers-except-computer"},{"code":"17-2199.00","title":"Engineers, All Other","slug":"engineers-all-other"}],"industries":[{"code":"335999","title":"All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing","slug":"all-other-miscellaneous-electrical-equipment-and-component-manufacturing"},{"code":"335313","title":"Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus Manufacturing","slug":"switchgear-and-switchboard-apparatus-manufacturing"},{"code":"335314","title":"Relay and Industrial Control Manufacturing","slug":"relay-and-industrial-control-manufacturing"}],"jobPosting":{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"JobPosting","title":"Electrical Engineer","description":"About Turtlebox Audio\r\nThe first Turtlebox was born out of necessity.
