Technoculture Research is re-imagining how the world measures health. We build micro-scale electrochemical laboratories that place lab-grade accuracy directly in the hands of clinicians, community health workers, and even patients at home. Our platform fuses microfabricated electrodes, novel surface chemistries, and microfluidics to run protein, nucleic-acid, and metabolite assays within minutes. By replacing costly optical detection with electron sensing, we slash instrument and per-test costs by roughly an order of magnitude, making precision diagnostics truly accessible. Our mission is clear: make diagnostics abundant so that every critical health decision is guided by immediate, affordable results, wherever care happens.

We are seeking a talented PCB Design Engineer to join our team. You will turn our circuit designs into production-ready PCBs for humanoid robots, proprietary gripper systems, teleoperation rigs, and egocentric capture devices. Every board you design becomes part of the hardware stack that generates the training data for our foundation model.

• Design multi-layer PCBs (4 to 12 layers) for motor controllers, sensor boards, and compute modules across our robotics fleet.
• Layout boards for our proprietary UMI gripper and DexUMI hand electronics.
• Route high-speed signals (USB 3.0, MIPI, Ethernet, HDMI) with impedance control and signal integrity.
• Design flex and rigid-flex PCBs for space-constrained gripper assemblies and wearable capture hardware.
• Manage thermal design and power distribution for high-current motor drive stages in humanoid joints.
• Run DFM and DFA reviews and coordinate with fabrication and assembly houses for production scaling.
• Generate complete manufacturing outputs: Gerbers, drill files, assembly drawings, and pick-and-place data.
• Perform impedance calculations, stack-up design, and signal integrity simulations.

1. B.Tech or M.Tech in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
2. 2-4 years of experience with PCB layout on multi-layer boards.
3. Strong understanding of impedance-controlled routing, EMI/EMC mitigation, and power integrity.
4. Experience with high-speed interface layout: USB, Ethernet, MIPI, LVDS.
5. Proficiency in Altium Designer, KiCad, or equivalent EDA tools.
6. Knowledge of mixed-signal layout: analog-digital partitioning, grounding, and isolation.
7. Familiarity with DFM/DFA principles and working with PCB fabrication houses.
