Your Impact

You will contribute to Axon's product line as part of the Axon Robotics team (formerly Sky-Hero). We are building career-defining, next-generation drones and robots in pursuit of our Moonshot: to cut gun-related deaths between police and the public by 50% over the next 10 years. As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you will advance Axon's mission to Protect Life by designing and prototyping the electronic boards and systems at the heart of mission-critical robots such as UAVs and UGVs.

This is a senior, hands-on design role within a fast-moving R&D team. You will work on densely populated, tightly packaged, battery-powered systems where size, weight and power constraints make every design decision consequential. Using EDA tools including Altium Designer and Cadence OrCAD/Allegro, you will solve demanding problems across the full breadth of electronics engineering — from analog to digital — and you will design, assemble and debug boards and prototypes as an active contributor to our R&D process.

Location: Brussels, Belgium

This role is based out of our Brussels office (West Brussels, Rue d'Enghien). Because we are rapidly prototyping confidential hardware, this team works on-site, with some flexibility unless there is an approved workplace accommodation. We believe that in-person collaboration fuels innovation, and our in-office culture is designed to foster meaningful teamwork, mentorship and shared success.

Participate in the research and development of our next-generation products

Design schematics and PCBs; test and verify prototypes; and support the Firmware and Software Engineering teams in bringing up new boards

Design and build custom test systems for measuring the performance of our electronics

Test and measure boards, multi-board assemblies and electronic components such as batteries and motors

Support manufacturing and follow up on designs when changes are required due to component obsolescence or unavailability

What You Bring

Bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering or equivalent

5+ years of industry-leading electronics design experience, with emphasis on densely populated, tightly packaged, battery-powered embedded systems

Proficiency in multi-layer PCB layout and/or rigid-flex design

Strong all-round electronics knowledge, from analog to digital

Knowledge of at least one EDA package: Altium Designer and/or Cadence OrCAD

Awareness of EMC and signal-integrity issues and best practices as they relate to PCB design

Excellent hands-on skills: comfortable assembling board prototypes and using test equipment such as a DMM, oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer

Knowledge of C and Python for test firmware development

English proficiency required; French and/or Dutch are a plus

Full EU working rights
