About the job

SummaryBy Outscal

Matic is seeking a Hardware Reliability Engineer - Electrical to control the reliability and quality of their home robot products. Must-haves include 1+ years of experience with digital or mixed-signal designs and 1+ years in a manufacturing, reliability, and/or design engineering role. Previous ECAD experience with tools such as Altium Designer, Cadence, or equivalent is also required.

Overview

Matic is bringing families out of the stone age of remarkably dumb disc home robots. Humanity spends ~2.5 trillion hours annually on home chores, worth $25 trillion in wasted economic value at $10/hour. We are on a mission to recapture this time and value with fully autonomous, useful, elegant, and affordable Wall-E-ish home robots that families love and cannot fathom their lives without. 


Our approach
In 2017, we observed 200+ self-driving car startups and an equal number of industrial robotics startups, but the home autonomy and robotics space had been dramatically overlooked. While AI is becoming more ubiquitous, families are still stuck spending dozens of hours per week on repetitive household chores.

At Matic, we're leveraging advanced technology to address this problem. We've started by reimagining our first product in fully autonomous floor-cleaning robots. Just like consumers adopted Cell Phones, then PDAs, then iPods and Blackberries before adopting the iPhone to replace all, we believe that consumers will adopt single-purpose, elegant, and affordable robots that belong and become part of their homes first before we get one-robot-to-rule all chores.

Our goal is to continue automating other forms of household labor, shipping useful, affordable, and privacy-first robots to our users that solve real problems while building iteratively toward more complex tasks and capabilities over time.

Privacy first

Our robots are also private by design, with all the computes on the edge device. We believe that families shouldn't have to jeopardize their privacy just to get some help with the constant drudgery of home chores.

Who we are
We are a consumer robotics product company solving real customer problems. We start with a problem, think of an elegant solution in the form of robots, and conduct necessary research to build products that just work. We believe families want solutions to their problems, and AI & robots enable us to solve them.

Who we are NOT
We are NOT a Robotics Foundation Model research lab, a humanoid builder, or a robotics software platform company. We build fully autonomous, useful, elegant, and affordable Wall-E-ishq robotic products that kids, pets, and families love!

About the role

As a Hardware Reliability Engineer - Electrical, you will control the reliability and quality of the product as the design scales. You will be working with the Hardware team through EVT, DVT, PVT, and MP to help ensure a high-quality product and reliable system, both in the field and on the production line.

If you’re passionate about great design and obsessed with getting the details right, we’d love to talk to you about how you can work with us to pioneer innovations in the home robotics space.

What you'll do

  • Work cross-functionally with the hardware, software, supply chain, product team, and domestic/overseas CMs and vendors to identify root causes and drive resolution for failures originating in testing and in the field

  • Own the electrical design reliability, and analyze field usage and issues to optimize test methods and implementations

  • Apply knowledge of electrical engineering and manufacturing to drive containment and corrective action implementation into the design and the product to enable continuous improvement

  • Bridge the gap of electrical / software / mechanical by designing Hardware in the Loop (HIL) tests to guide component-to-system level reliability

  • Be an integral member of our small hardware team

What we look for

  • Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, hardware engineering, engineering physics, or equivalent engineering discipline

  • 1+ years working with digital or mixed-signal designs, using oscilloscopes, digital multimeters, power supplies, and/or soldering equipment (includes internships and school projects)

  • 1+ years in a manufacturing, reliability, and/or design engineering role (student project team or internship experience qualifies)

  • Previous ECAD experience with tools such as Altium Designer, Cadence, or equivalent

  • Bonus: Experience with MCAD tools such as SolidWorks, 3D printing, and laser cutting, exposure to regulatory certification processes

  • Comfort with fast-paced, startup atmosphere -- you don’t shy away from the hard work

  • High level of maturity, ownership, and pride in your work

We'd love to hear from you if...

  • You are genuinely motivated to help those around you

  • You are passionate about learning outside of your normal comfort zones

  • You love diagnosing complex technical issues

  • You are excited to do great work
