E/E Architect (Human)

Summary

The E/E Architect will design and define the electrical and electronic architecture for robotic products, including power distribution, bus systems, and system interfaces. The role focuses on ensuring robust, safe, and series-ready designs through collaboration with cross-functional engineering teams.

The Integration Design team owns the overall technical architecture of our robotic products. It defines system requirements, interfaces, and safety concepts across mechanics, electronics, and software, and makes the architecture decisions that shape series readiness.

Your mission & challenges

You shape the electrical/electronic architecture of our robotics product: topology, power supply, communication, and wiring – robust, safe, and series-ready.

• Defining the overall E/E architecture (ECU topology, on-board power network, bus systems such as EtherCAT/CAN)

• Designing power supply and distribution, including safety concepts

• Specifying electrical interfaces between sensors, actuators, compute units, and peripherals

• Evaluating components and technologies for cost, availability, and reliability

• Collaborating with functional safety, PCB design, and cable development

What we're looking for

• Degree in electrical engineering, mechatronics, or comparable

• Experience in E/E architecture for complex systems (robotics, automotive, mechanical engineering)

• Knowledge of fieldbus/real-time communication (EtherCAT, CAN, Ethernet) and on-board power networks

• Experience with safety-related electronics (e.g., IEC 61508, ISO 13849) is a plus

• Independent, conceptual way of working
