BRINC is a vertically integrated U.S. drone technology company building autonomous emergency-response systems. The company designs and manufactures unmanned aircraft systems, autonomous drone stations, command-and-control software, and advanced autonomy for public safety. BRINC operates Drone as First Responder (DFR) networks that dispatch drones directly to 911 calls, providing real-time aerial intelligence before ground units arrive. The company serves more than 1,000 public safety customers across all 50 states and is the sole drone supplier to Motorola Solutions. BRINC has raised over $280 million from leading strategic and technology investors.
In this Senior Electrical Engineer role, you will lead the conceptualization, design, and testing of BRINC's drone systems. You will own hardware development from specification through design, prototyping, testing, and manufacturing. Key responsibilities include circuit design, power distribution, sensor integration, and PCB development, ensuring products meet high performance and reliability standards. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams including software, mechanical, perception, controls, and manufacturing engineers to integrate electrical systems with other components. You will design both flight hardware and test setups to validate designs, establish top-level design architectures and implementation methodologies for the team, and clearly communicate design decisions with internal stakeholders. You will perform and document design analysis and testing results, make data-driven decisions to land key product features, work closely with product partners to ensure the final product meets design intent and customer needs, and provide technical guidance and mentorship to the broader electrical engineering team.
This role demands specialized expertise in electrical engineering and positions you as a versatile problem-solver who can take ownership of the company's toughest technical challenges in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
