    Job Description

    About the Team

    Droyd builds autonomous robotic systems that automate repetitive manual work in real environments. We design and manufacture our hardware in-house, which means iteration, fabrication, and execution all happen under one roof.

    Our robots rely on tightly integrated electronics for sensing, communication, and control. Our electrical engineering work spans board design, cameras, data systems, and the low-voltage infrastructure that supports the robot as a whole — highly cross-functional work, closely tied to mechanical and software development.

    About the Role

    As an Electrical Engineer at Droyd, you will focus on low-voltage electrical systems and PCB design for our robotic platforms. You will work on custom boards and supporting electronics for sensing, data, and system integration.

    This role is ideal for someone who enjoys practical board-level design and wants to see their work integrated quickly into real hardware.

    This role is based on-site in San Francisco, CA.

    In This Role, You'll

    Board & System Design

    • Design PCBs and low-voltage electrical systems for robotic hardware

    • Support camera, sensor, and data-related electrical integration

    • Help define practical electrical architecture for new hardware

    Prototyping & Validation

    • Prototype, test, debug, and iterate on board designs quickly

    • Contribute to bring-up, validation, and reliability improvements for electrical subsystems

    Cross-Functional Integration

    • Work closely with mechanical and software teams to ensure clean system integration

    • Communicate design decisions, trade-offs, and test results clearly

    Work Environment & Schedule

    • On-site in San Francisco, CA

    • Full-time

    Compensation: $140K–$195K base salary, plus equity

    We're Looking For Candidates Who

    • Have experience designing and shipping PCB-based systems

    • Have strong fundamentals in low-voltage electrical engineering

    • Are comfortable debugging and validating hardware in the lab

    • Work well across mechanical, software, and robotics teams

    • Can move quickly in a prototyping-heavy startup environment

    Nice to have:

    • Experience with robotics or embedded systems

    • Experience with camera and sensor integration

    • Experience with high-speed data or communications interfaces

    About Droyd

    Droyd builds autonomous robotic systems that operate in real production environments. We design the hardware, develop the control stack, and generate the data that enables generalist robotics.

    If we do this right, robots stop being demos and start being infrastructure.

    Join us and help build the systems that make it real.
