What we do
Loop Robots automates disinfection using smart robots to make medical-grade sanitization faster, safer, and digitally auditable—helping to fight hospital-acquired infections while reducing the use of chemicals. Hospital-acquired infections kill 72,000 persons each year, with a cost of more than $45 billion per year—just in the US.
Loop Robots solves real problems for society with mobile service robots: intelligent algorithms packed within affordable hardware platforms. Robots for good. Loop Robots works globally and is based in Delft, The Netherlands.

We have high standards for individual capability and your contribution to what we do. We are looking to hire people who enjoy making things and naturally focus on practical and scalable (robotics) solutions that are useful (valuable) to our customers.
What you will do
Role Description: Senior Electronics Design Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Electronics Design Engineer to lead the development of our next-generation (4th generation) robots and enhance our current fleet (3rd generation). This role requires a blend of innovative design and hands-on problem-solving skills, working closely with a multidisciplinary engineering team.
Key Responsibilities:
- 4th Generation Robot Development:
- Design, test, certify, and bring to production printed circuit boards (PCBs), including:
- Compute and I/O interface boards.
- Power conditioning and switch relay boards.
- Design UL-certified cable harnesses, wiring, and interconnects.
- Develop battery and low/medium voltage electrical systems (48V - 230V).
- Integrate advanced sensors such as LIDAR, cameras, depth sensors, and inertial sensors.
- Select and integrate motors and motor drivers.
- Work with single-board computers, routers, and connectivity solutions.
- Develop and maintain detailed design documentation.
- Ensure compliance with CE and FCC EMC standards through testing.
- 3rd Generation Robot:
- Implement and test incremental improvements.
- Support the operational robot fleet through troubleshooting and root cause analysis.
- Collaborate with and select component suppliers.
Team Collaboration:
Work closely with mechanical design engineers and software engineers to ensure seamless integration of electronic systems.
Tools and Technologies:
- Primary design work in KiCad.
- Use Git for version control (preferred experience).
- Hands-on work in our robotics workshop for building and testing.
- Experience in embedded/low-level programming (C, C++, Python).
- Familiarity with Linux environments.
Required Qualifications and Skills:
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechatronics.
- 5 to 10 years of relevant work experience.
- Proven expertise in electronics and PCB design.
- Familiarity with hardware prototyping, testing, and debugging tools (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.).
- Knowledge of hardware-related communication protocols (I²C, SPI, UART, CAN, Ethernet, etc.).
- Strong troubleshooting skills, including root cause analysis and problem isolation.
*- Bonus: Experience in designing and programming embedded systems.
- Bonus: Experience in high-speed digital electronics design (e.g., PCI-E, CSI).
- Bonus: Basic Python knowledge (e.g., to test motor controllers).*
- Proficiency in KiCad and Git.
- Fluent in English (speaking, listening, and writing).
- You must have a permit to work in the EU.
What We Offer:
- A key role in a fast-growing international robotics company.
- Close collaboration with a small team of highly motivated and dedicated colleagues.
- A remuneration package commensurate with the position.
- The opportunity to own and lead your field of work.
- On-site work at our Delft location.
