We Need Your Expertise with Design of Embedded Electronics on Our Quest to Advance Adaptive Robot Intelligence

InMind is a newly formed company taking on the challenge of making robots learn. Our ambitious goal is to develop the world’s first real-time adaptive system for embedded deep learning.

From our headquarters in Trondheim the engineering work has already started. The work is based on the technical expertise of our founder Torgeir Trøite, an electrical engineer and successful serial entrepreneur. We are now building a strong technical team who will need to solve challenges, work hard and have lots of fun along the way in order to achieve our ambitious and potential world-changing goal.

“We have bold ambitions! InMind is advancing robot intelligence that allows robots to learn from their environment and adapt to new tasks autonomously. Personally, I strongly believe that the ability for robots to learn and improve is the key to future productivity and innovation.” – Torgeir Trøite, Founder/CEO/Head of Development 

Join our R&D Team as our Expert on Embedded Electronics Design

Our current goal is to build a team of 6-8 engineers working together on all the various aspects that are needed to enable us to deliver a working and learning robotics system.

The Senior Electronics Design Engineer will work on all aspects of development of customized electronics.

For this position we are searching for a candidate who checks off on most of the following key qualifications & experience :

• Schematic and Layout Design: Expertise in schematic capture and PCB layout design, particularly using tools like Altium.
• Analog and Digital Circuit Design: Proficiency in designing analog front-end (AFE) circuits, ADCs, DACs, and working with FPGAs. Experience with power supply units (PSU) and handling EMI/EMC considerations.
• Interfaces and Communication Protocols: Knowledge of DDR memory, UART communication, and various sensor interfaces.
• Simulation and Analysis: Experience with simulation tools like LTspice, and familiarity with noise analysis and impedance control.
• Testing and Debugging: Proficiency with testing and debugging tools such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and multimeters. Skills in board bring-up, boot processes, and PHY layer implementation.
• Components and Production: Understanding of components like batteries, connectors, cables, LEDs, switches, and filters. Experience in grounding, shielding, soldering, and production processes.
• Environmental Considerations: Knowledge of ESD protection, thermal management (heat dissipation), and reliability testing.

We do not require a specific university degree, as your hands-on experience and practical knowledge are what is essential to us. However, holding a BSc or MSc in a relevant filed such as electronics, analog- or digital design, cybernetics, or engineering is an advantage

Who are You as a Person?

The challenge we are taking will truly by a team effort and the most important personal trait is your enthusiasm and dedication to building a strong technical team with an open and collaborative culture. Our hypothesis is that people you work with will see you as:

• Quick Learner & Team Player: You quickly acquire new skills, effectively share your knowledge with your team, and collaborate really well
• Analytical Thinker & Innovator: You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills and see the value in developing new and innovative solutions
• Curious & Approachable : You are eager to tackle new challenges, learn new skills, approachable, and solution-oriented

Why Should You Join InMind?

Whether you are an experience professional or a more recent graduate we offer a unique opportunity to develop new and groundbreaking technology. You will be given tough technical challenges but will experience the joy of seeing the impact of your own work.

We are located centrally in Trondheim in inspiring offices with a partly sponsored cafeteria, free parking, rain-free bicycle storage and an exercise room with showers. You’ll have a competitive salary, flexible working hours, a sound pension plan and standard benefits like mobile phone and internet coverage – and the chance to build a brand new company.
