System Electrical Engineer Intern
About Tacit
We are an early-stage, deep tech startup based in San Francisco, developing innovative hardware that rethinks human-computer interaction. We are backed by General Catalyst, Khosla Ventures, and Greylock Partners, with a founding team from Stanford, BrainGate, Oculus, and Tesla. While we can’t reveal too much just yet, our team is tackling cutting-edge engineering challenges to bring revolutionary products to life.
About the role
We're looking for a System Electrical Engineer Intern to help validate, debug, and improve the electrical blocks in our sensing hardware. You'll work alongside our hardware engineers on real prototype boards: bringing them up on the bench, measuring how they perform, tracking down problems, and helping turn what you learn into the next design.
You'll take part in the product's journey from prototype to mass production, including bring-up, design updates, and testing. We hire interns on a rolling basis and are flexible on start date and timeline.
What you'll do
Help bring up prototype boards and get them ready for testing.
Run bench measurements on power rails, battery charging, sensor front ends, and digital interfaces, following validation plans
