Job description

We are looking for a practical, hands-on Electronics Engineer to join our growing hardware team in Barcelona for systems that require robust, high-performance embedded electronics - built from scratch and validated through deep iteration. This is a lab-heavy, tool-in-hand role for someone who enjoys not just designing boards but getting them to work in the real world - probing signals, fixing layout issues, replacing components under a microscope, and rapidly iterating designs. What You´ll Be Doing:

  • Own PCB designs from schematic to layout to bench validation for real-time embedded control systems (MCUs, drivers, sensors)
  • Build, rework, and debug prototype boards - including soldering, hot-air reflow, and patch wiring for last-minute changes
  • Systematically investigate and solve board-level issues using oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, and signal generators
  • Collaborate with firmware and mechanical teams to bring up systems and integrate electronics into functional prototypes
  • Prepare BOMs, layout notes, and clearly documented test reports
  • Validate electronics in the context of complex systems - identify electrical issues, fix them, and document learnings
  • Support in-house prototype assembly and iterate quickly between board versions
  • Provide design-for-debug input and improve testability of production boards

Requirements

  • A degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering or equivalent practical experience
  • 2-4 years of industry experience working on embedded hardware designs
  • Proficiency with schematic capture and PCB layout tools (Eagle preferred)
  • Comfort and confidence with hands-on rework: soldering 0603 passives, reflowing fine-pitch ICs, or patching traces on a prototype board
  • Experience testing microcontroller-based systems and common interfaces like SPI, I2C, UART, USB
  • Ability to identify and fix signal integrity or power-related issues using test equipment
  • Basic understanding of embedded firmware flows - able to flash and interact with firmware during bring-up
  • A willingness to iterate, debug, and get hardware into a working, testable state What We Value additionally:

  • Experience with ARM Cortex microcontrollers
  • Knowledge of EMI/EMC practices, protection circuitry, or certification prep
  • Experience working on motor control, sensor integration, or Ethernet hardware
  • Exposure to test automation or scripting for board validation You Will Fit Great If:

  • You are a natural problem solver and thinker - comfortable probing unknown circuits and figuring things out
  • You get satisfaction from making hardware work - and even more when you fix something that didn’t
  • You thrive in environments where prototypes evolve weekly and no two board spins are alike
  • You believe hardware development is not done until it works on the bench and in the proto not just in CAD

Benefits & conditions

  • Competitive salary
  • Excellent location near Barcelona, in a very inspiring office
  • Professional development and career advancement opportunities in a fast growing new company with unique technology
  • A truly open-minded and supportive work environment with a high level of employee empowerment
  • Flexible working hours
  • Free snacks, fruits, coffee and tea
