About this job

Figure is an AI robotics company developing autonomous general-purpose humanoid robots. The goal of the company is to ship humanoid robots with human level intelligence. Its robots are engineered to perform a variety of tasks in the home and commercial markets. Figure is headquartered in San Jose, CA.

We are looking for an Electrical Hardware Engineer to support the design, development, and integration of wire harness and electrical interconnect systems for humanoid robotic platforms. This role will drive 2D and 3D wire harness design, routing, and integration within complex electromechanical assemblies, ensuring optimal performance, manufacturability, and reliability.

The ideal candidate is highly proficient in 3D CAD, detail-oriented, and comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment with close collaboration across EE, ME, and Manufacturing teams.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop and maintain 3D wire harness routing within system-level assemblies.

  • Create 2D harness drawings, flatten layouts, and manufacturing documentation.

  • Define connector selection, backshells, strain reliefs, and mounting features.

  • Collaborate with EE to translate schematics into physical harness designs.

  • Ensure proper bend radius, shielding, separation, and routing best practices in line with EWIS/USCAR standards.

  • Support BOM creation and part selection for harness and connector components.

  • Coordinate with suppliers and contract manufacturers for DFM feedback.

  • Update models and drawings based on prototype learnings and MFG feedback.

  • Maintain revision control and proper documentation in PLM systems.

Requirements:

  • 3+ years of experience in wire harness or electrical hardware design.

  • Strong experience in 3D CAD (e.g., CATIA, SolidWorks, Creo, or similar).

  • Experience creating both 2D and 3D harness documentation.

  • Solid understanding of harness routing constraints and electrical integration.

  • Experience working with contract manufacturers and suppliers.

  • Comfortable in a startup environment with fast iteration cycles.

Bonus Qualifications: 

  • Experience with robotics or complex electromechanical systems.

  • EVT/DVT build support experience.

  • Familiarity with PLM systems (e.g., Enovia).

  • Experience supporting manufacturing floor issues.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $125,000 to $225,000 per year.

The pay offered for this position may vary based on several individual factors, including job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The total compensation package may also include additional components/benefits depending on the specific role. This information will be shared if an employment offer is extended.
