Principal Electrical Engineer, Bee

Join Bee, an Amazon company building the future of personal AI ambient computing. As our first dedicated Electrical Engineer, you'll have the unique opportunity to shape hardware development from the ground up in a fast-moving, startup-like environment within Amazon.
We're a small, agile team (acquired by Amazon in September 2025) on a mission to create innovative AI-powered ambient devices.

You'll work directly with the Head of Hardware and collaborate closely with cross-functional leaders to bring new products to life.

Key job responsibilities
- Design and develop electrical systems and circuit boards for next-generation AI ambient computing devices from concept through production
- Own the complete electrical engineering lifecycle including schematic capture, component selection, PCB layout oversight, and design validation
- Collaborate directly with the Head of Hardware to define hardware architecture and technical roadmaps for multiple product lines
- Work cross-functionally with mechanical engineering, firmware, software, and industrial design teams to integrate electrical systems into complete product solutions
- Conduct design reviews, failure analysis, and troubleshooting to ensure product reliability and performance
- Develop and execute test plans including bring-up, validation, and compliance testing (FCC, CE, safety certifications)
- Source and evaluate components, manage BOMs, and work with contract manufacturers to ensure design for manufacturability (DFM)
- Rapidly prototype and iterate on designs in a fast-paced startup environment where speed and innovation are critical
- Drive technical decisions on power management, connectivity (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.), audio systems, sensors, and other subsystems relevant to AI ambient devices
- Establish electrical engineering best practices, documentation standards, and development processes as the founding EE on the team
- Stay current with emerging technologies and components to continuously improve product capabilities and performance

A day in the life
As the founding Principal Electrical Engineer at Bee, your days will be dynamic and hands-on. You might start your morning reviewing PCB layouts with contract manufacturers, then jump into a design review with the Head of Hardware to discuss power architecture for an upcoming product


Afternoons could involve debugging a prototype at your bench, collaborating with firmware engineers to troubleshoot sensor integration issues, or evaluating new components that could enhance our AI ambient devices. You'll have direct access to leadership and the autonomy to make critical technical decisions quickly.
You'll work closely with a small, tight-knit team including mechanical engineers and industrial designers to ensure electrical systems integrate seamlessly into elegant product designs.
