Job description
About Hextronics
Hex is building the infrastructure for on-demand aerial data. We design and manufacture drone-in-a-box systems that automate repetitive drone operations, taking humans out of the loop so the people who depend on aerial data can move faster. We're a small, agile team, we move fast, take on extreme ownership, and build products in months, not years.
The Role
As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you'll own electrical components end-to-end — from architecture through schematic, layout, bring-up, and production. You'll drive RF design across our drone and dock platforms, write firmware for board bring-up and validation, and partner closely with our hardware team to ship products that work in the real world.
Responsibilities
Own the end-to-end design process for electrical subsystems — schematic, layout, bring-up, and validation
Drive schematic capture and multi-layer PCB layout in Altium
Lead RF design across drone and dock platforms
Write C/C++ firmware for board bring-up, diagnostics, and hardware validation
Define and execute verification, validation, and acceptance testing procedures for development and production hardware
Drive root cause analysis on hardware issues and ship robust solutions
Propose and validate system architecture decisions through simulation, calculation, and hands-on analysis
Work cross-functionally with firmware, mechanical, and manufacturing to ensure system-level performance
Requirements
Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering or related field
1-5 years of professional EE experience with a track record of products through a full development lifecycle
Expert proficiency in Altium for schematic capture and multi-layer PCB layout
Deep understanding of analog and digital circuit design, power electronics, and high-speed signal integrity
Hands-on RF design experience - antenna integration, impedance-controlled layout, link budget analysis, and bench testing with VNAs and spectrum analyzers
Proficiency in C/C++ for firmware development, particularly for board bring-up, diagnostics, and hardware validation
Strong experience with simulation tools (e.g., SPICE) and analysis to support design decisions
Nice to Have
Experience with low-power, long-range protocols like LoRa and Wi-Fi HaLow
Direct experience taking products through FCC and equivalent international regulatory certification
Expertise in embedded systems architecture with STM32 microcontrollers — peripheral configuration, power management, and debugging
Experience with Design for Manufacturing (DFM), Design for Test (DFT), and EMI/EMC pre-compliance
UAV, robotics, aerospace, or defense industry background
What We Offer
Competitive salary and equity
Health, dental, and vision coverage
The chance to work on electrical hardware that controls physical systems in the field
A small, technical team where your work ships and matters
Hex is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds.
