Build what comes
after Segway.

We’re a small team in the Twin Cities building oTo: a self-balancing machine made only for guided tours, with safety built into every layer. We’re growing, and we’re looking for people who like hard problems and hands-on work.

Electrical Engineer

Apply

What you’ll do

  • Own the electrical architecture of the oTo machine, from battery pack and power distribution to motor drives and safety interlocks.
  • Design, lay out and bring up PCBs for motor control, sensing, lighting, haptics, audio and the rider call button.
  • Evaluate and integrate traction motors and magnet technology with our mechanical team and outside motor suppliers.
  • Integrate sensors and radios (GNSS, IMU, radar, mesh networking) with our edge-computing platform.
  • Build test fixtures, run validation and help take the design toward certification and small-batch manufacturing in the U.S.

What you bring

  • A BS in electrical engineering or similar, and 3+ years designing and shipping hardware.
  • Experience with BLDC/PMSM motor control, high-current power electronics and lithium battery systems (BMS).
  • Schematic capture and PCB layout (Altium, KiCad or similar), plus lab bring-up and debug.
  • Comfort with embedded firmware (C/C++) and CAN, SPI, I²C and UART.
  • Nice to have: functional safety (ISO 13849 / IEC 61508), EMC and UL 2272 experience, or LoRa/mesh radios.

You’d be an early engineer on a product with a 23-year operating history behind it. Your work rolls through Minneapolis with real riders.
