Job details

Experience: We’re looking for founding generalist engineers with 2+ years of work experience and deep expertise in embedded systems and EECS.
Posting language: English

Original job description

As a Founding Engineer, you will be a core part of the team creating a robot that must survive operating for long durations in some of the most cramped, dark, dirty, and hazardous industrial environments and eventually, making thousands of them. In this role, you will develop the embedded and electrical nervous system of the robot. You will design the electronics, write the firmware, bring up hardware from blank PCBs, and integrate sensors, motors, and compute into a reliable, field-deployable system. We value engineers who understand that clean schematics, clean firmware, and clean interfaces are just as important as raw performance.

The work:

Design embedded systems for rugged robotic platforms operating in harsh, GPS-denied environments
Design schematics and multi-layer PCBs (including power, MCU, sensors, motor drivers, and comms)
Bring up new boards from scratch: flashing, probing, debugging, and validating hardware
Write low-level firmware and drivers for sensors, motors, encoders, and peripherals
Integrate embedded systems with higher-level robotics software (ROS, onboard compute, networking)
Own communication stacks and protocols (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, RS-485, Ethernet)
Develop robust motor control, power management, and fault-handling systems
Design and execute electrical validation and stress testing for real-world environments
Support manufacturing bring-up, test fixtures, and production diagnostics
Collaborate closely with mechanical and software engineers to deliver complete robotic systems

Skills and experiences we look for (the more the better) We’re looking for founding generalist engineers with 2+ years of work experience and deep expertise in embedded systems and EECS. If you’re a recent college graduate, we’d still encourage you to apply and would love it if you could highlight interesting STEM projects outside of work or school.

Core EE / Embedded Focus
Strong experience with embedded C/C++ for microcontrollers
Experience bringing up new hardware (MCUs, power rails, clocks, peripherals)
Schematic capture and PCB layout experience (Altium, KiCad, or similar)
Experience with SMD components, soldering, rework, and board-level debugging
Designing and debugging power systems (DC-DCs, LDOs, battery interfaces)
Writing low-level drivers and HALs for sensors, actuators, and comms
Understanding of signal integrity, EMI/ESD, grounding, and robustness
Familiarity with embedded debugging tools (JTAG, SWD, logic analyzers, scopes)
Robotics & Systems Experience
Experience with robots, drones, or mechatronic systems
ROS1/ROS2 experience and Linux-based robotics stacks
Motor control experience (BLDCs, servos, encoders, ESCs)
Experience integrating IMUs, cameras, LiDAR, or other perception sensors
Understanding of real-time constraints, latency, and reliability
Basic understanding of RF systems and wireless limitations
Nice to Have
Experience designing for production and scale
Test fixture and manufacturing test development
Safety-critical or industrial systems experience
Power-constrained or battery-powered embedded design
Field debugging in harsh environments

About You We are looking for a Generalist at heart, specialist by training: Deep EECS / embedded expertise, but comfortable diving into adjacent domains. We want someone who can dive deep into low-level technical problems and emerge with a solution, regardless of the discipline. You will not be confined to a single subsystem; you will own issues from the whiteboard to the field.

Design-minded: You care about clean schematics, readable firmware, and intentional system architecture
Hands-on builder: You enjoy bringing hardware to life, not just simulating it
Systems thinker: You understand how electronics, firmware, mechanics, and software interact
Driven by Curiosity: You build complex things for fun in your free time and love to educate others on problems and solutions.
Ownership mentality: You take responsibility from whiteboard to field deployment

About The Hiring Process Drover Labs cares deeply about your time, and while we will want to spend time getting to know you during the interview process, project work or on-site interviews are compensated on a paid hourly basis. We believe investing in people starts before day one. Competitive Compensation + Equity + Benefits
