Electrical Engineer - Robotics

Faction Imaging is seeking an experienced Electrical Engineer to help accelerate the development of next-generation medical imaging solutions. In this role, you will work with a multidisciplinary team of engineers and contribute to the design, integration, and validation of robust, production-quality hardware systems that enable efficient and reliable execution of critical medical procedures performed millions of times each year.Core ResponsibilitiesArchitect, design, and integrate electronic systems for a platform, including electromechanical actuators, power distribution, communication interfaces, and subsystems involving high-density, impedance-controlled, low-noise RF signalingOwn the end-to-end lifecycle of electronic designs, defining system architectures and interfaces across motors, sensors, embedded computing, and safety-critical electronics from concept through validationCollaborate closely with mechanical, controls, and systems engineers, as well as industrial designers, to manage cross-disciplinary tradeoffs and ensure cohesive system integrationSupport manufacturing, assembly, and test builds, including documentation, troubleshooting, and design refinementProvide technical input and system-level guidance for the integration of specialized sensing electronics, coordinating with external experts as neededRequired QualificationsBachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field5+ years of experience designing and integrating electronic systems for robotics, distributed systems, or complex electromechanical productsDemonstrated proficiency with PCB schematic capture and board layout using professional eCAD tools (e.g., Altium, Allegro, or equivalent)Experience with network and fieldbus protocols such as EtherCAT and CAN, as well as embedded serial protocols including SPI and I²CHands-on experience with hardware bring-up, debugging, and validation using standard lab instrumentationExperience designing flexible printed circuits, specifying connectors and cabling, and addressing EMI/ESD and signal integrity challengesPreferred QualificationsExperience developing electronics for medical devices, including familiarity with IEC 60601-1 (or experience in other regulated, safety-critical environments such as aerospace)Familiarity with system-level documentation such as functional specifications, design verification plans, and test proceduresWorking knowledge of mechanical CAD tools (e.g., SolidWorks) to support collaborative integration with mechanical designsExperience supporting manufacturing transfer, supplier engagement, and early production buildsExperience with power electronics, power distribution, and battery systemsThis is a part-time hybrid position, which will require time in Faction’s office in downtown Manhattan.
