The Electrical Engineer (Motor Control PCB) will report to the Research and Development Manager and work closely with the R&D team to design and test PCBs for linear actuator motor control. This role involves both hands-on design and collaboration with firmware, mechanical, and product teams to bring high-quality motor control systems from concept to production.
The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in motor control PCB design, a methodical engineering approach, and the ability to see products through the full lifecycle starting from requirements gathering to product ready for sale.
Primary Responsibilities
- Act as Product Owner for developing, procuring, and launching motor control boxes (Linear Actuator Controllers and Control Boxes - Progressive Automations). This includes coordinating prototyping, assembly, and procurement of inventory.
- Primary focus will be on PCB Design and layout.
- Design cost-effective control systems for mass production, selecting components based on availability and cost-effectiveness for both local and overseas manufacturing.
-
Establish systems and procedures to ensure quality, knowledge retention, and continuous improvement within the team.
- Design new products and improve legacy motor control boxes.
- Build test equipment and conduct in-house product stress testing.
- Lead in-house product assembly and QC testing in collaboration with the QC engineer.
- Produce technical datasheets, instruction manuals, and internal education packages in collaboration with the Product Launch team.
- Lead internal product education campaigns.
- Integrate the following technologies into product designs:
- RF control
- Wi-Fi
- Thread Matter
- Bluetooth
-
CANBUS / MODBUS compatibility
- Strong knowledge and experience in motor controls and noise cancellation.
- Understanding of the full lifecycle of product development, from requirements through to production.
- Minimum 5 years of PCB design experience.
- Minimum bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering.
- Methodical, organized approach to testing documentation, revision logging, and traceability.
-
Strong time management, communication, and leadership skills, with the ability to work independently and in collaboration with both local and overseas teams.
- Familiarity with Microchip MCUs and their integration into motor control systems.
- Proficiency with Altium Designer for PCB design.
- Solid C/C++ programming skills for embedded systems.
- Experience with documentation standards and use of SVN for version control.
- Methodical, organized approach to testing documentation, revision logging, and traceability.
- Knowledge of North American manufacturing standards and certifications.
Senior Embedded Software Engineer
@ Embedd 
What we're looking for
At embedd.it, we power hardware-software integration in embedded devices. We turn fragmented semiconductor chip data into configurable digital twins, then deterministically generate code, tests, and documentation – making integration faster, cheaper, and resilient to supply chain shocks.
We’re looking for a true legend – someone with abstract thinking and deep expertise in low-level software development. You’ll build vendor-agnostic tooling for MCU and peripheral integration to solve hardware-software integration once and for all. We work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generation, compilers, and machine learning. It’s your chance to help redefine how low-level development is done.
Responsibilities
- Drive the architecture of the driver structures and system layout
- Define scalable patterns for cross-architectural integration across bare-metal, Zephyr, Linux, and other environments
- Deconstruct complex SoC device trees and translate hardware descriptions into structured internal models for automated reasoning
- Partner with the ML team to shape data and annotation models for AI-driven data-extraction tooling
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in embedded systems development, including bare-metal and RTOS-based systems
- Proficiency in C/C++
- Familiarity with firmware configuration, SoC bring-up, and system-level debugging
- Hands-on experience with code generation tools, or low-level compiler/decompiler/emulator technologies
- Strong background in embedded toolchains: compilers, linkers, debuggers, and build systems
- Python or scripting for automation and tooling is a plus
- Experience with functional-safety standards is a plus
Why embedd.it?
- Dynamic, venture-backed team of engineers challenging the status quo 🚀
- Work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generators, compilers, and ML 🤖
- Unusual challenges requiring out-of-the-box abstract thinking 🧠
- Competitive compensation: cash + equity 💰
- Remote work possible 🌍
About Us
embedd.it is a UK-based startup reinventing embedded development. Our platform transforms unstructured semiconductor data into structured digital twins, enabling automatic generation of drivers, tests, and documentation. We're building a single, traceable source of truth to make integration fast, vendor-agnostic, and future-proof.
