At Proception, we are building some of the most dexterous humanoid robotic hands in the world: 20+ actuators, dense sensing, real-time control, and power electronics packed into a compact robotic forearm.
This role is for an electrical engineer who enjoys building hardware that lives at the edge of what is physically possible. You will design the embedded electronics behind our robotic hands, including motor control, power delivery, sensor integration, board bring-up, and real-time communication.
Your work will directly affect the dexterity, responsiveness, reliability, and manufacturability of our robotic platforms.
We are a robotics team building the hardware foundation for general-purpose manipulation. We started Proception because we believe humanoid hands are one of the biggest bottlenecks to capable real-world robots.
Better robot intelligence needs better hands, better sensors, better actuation, and better embedded systems. That is what we are building.

You like solving problems where the electrical, mechanical, thermal, firmware, and control constraints all collide.
You are comfortable debugging a board with a scope in the morning, modifying firmware in the afternoon, and discussing actuator packaging with mechanical engineers before the end of the day.
You care about building hardware that works reliably, not just schematics that look good.

No applications, no recruiter spam. Just the intro.
A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.
I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.
If they’re a yes, I book the chat. You show up — that’s the whole job-hunt.
