About the role
- Carbon Robotics is the leader in physical AI for agriculture, helping farmers become more profitable and sustainable.
- Its flagship product, the LaserWeeder™, is the world's leading commercial laser weeding system with hundreds of units operated by farmers in 15 countries worldwide.
- Growers achieve weed control cost reductions of up to 80% and crop yield increases of 5-50%, with payback in one to three years.
Responsibilities
- Design PCBs for diverse applications including laser control systems, motor drives, power distribution, control panels, vehicle ECUs, and sensor interfaces
- Create high-speed digital boards for embedded computing, image processing, and real-time control systems
- Develop power electronics PCBs handling high currents for motor control and power distribution
- Design mixed-signal boards integrating precision analog, digital processing, and power management
- Optimize PCB layouts for EMI/EMC compliance, thermal management, and automotive reliability standards
- Implement design for manufacturing (DFM) and design for test (DFT) strategies across product lines
- Collaborate with firmware teams on microcontroller selection, memory architecture, and peripheral interfaces
- Support contract manufacturers through prototyping, bring-up, test development, and production ramp
- 2 - 8+ years experience in PCB design for embedded systems and power electronics
- Previous experience developing PCBs for agricultural/automotive/aerospace applications that meet strict environmental (vibration, temperature, high humidity, EMC) and regulatory requirements.
Requirements
- Expert proficiency in Altium Designer (v18+) including multi-board projects and multi layer designs as well as analytical design optimization tools
