This project is with Fabrica.ai, a startup supported by SGInnovate under the PowerX Programme.

PowerX is a 12-months traineeship programme designed to enable and create Deep Tech career opportunities for working professionals, combining bespoke training and industry experience.

Fabrica.ai specialises in developing automatic tile grouting robots, which are currently being piloted on construction sites in Singapore under the management of Woh Hup, BHCC, and Gin Chia. Their success extends beyond Singapore, as they have already gained early traction in the United States and Europe.

Fabrica is working on building reproducible and reliable PCBs for their robot. Part of that for electronics design and assembly is to design for easy debugging and replacing parts. This would include creating a simple user interface that could generate error codes. The Electrical Engineer would also be involved in the initial electronics design and assembly for Fabrica's new robots and potentially integrating Fabrica's tech stacks on existing robots.

Core responsibilities:

1) PCB, electronics design

- Working with both hobbyist and industrial microcontrollers, single board computers, motor drivers etc.

- Integrating motor systems of different types (DC, BLDC, with encoder feedback…), sensor modules etc.

- PCB design

2) Embedded programming

Possible additional responsibilities:

- Testing the robot on construction sites

- Managing external PCB production

- Harness design

Requirements:

  • Experience with electronics design and embedded software at at least one industrial level project
  • Value the direct impact on the product and proximity to clients at a startup and the growth potential of a startup
  • Working well with ambiguity and adaptable to changes
  • Ability to think of metrics to measure progress and deciding based on back on the envelope calculations
  • Keenness to do more than is expected, impact driven, past side projects
  • Excited about robotics and similar technical areas and exploring them in work and other projects
