Staff Electrical Engineer

Join WHOOP, a leading wearable technology company, as a Staff Electrical Engineer. In this critical technical leadership role, you will drive the development of our next-generation wearable platform. You will work across multiple teams, manage a small team of electrical engineers, and remain hands-on with design and debugging. Enjoy a flexible vacation policy, competitive benefits, and the opportunity to make a significant impact in the world of health and fitness technology.

Lead electrical system characterization and technical investigations, developing a deep understanding of system behavior across power, mixed-signal circuitry, digital interfaces, sensing, noise, timing, and other critical performance areas.

Interested in the role, but don’t meet every qualification? We encourage you to still apply! At WHOOP, we believe there is much more to a candidate than what is written on paper, and we value character as much as experience. As we continue to build a diverse and inclusive environment, we encourage anyone who is interested in this role to apply

Responsibilities

• Define and execute experiments that efficiently answer complex engineering questions, isolate variables, identify root causes, and expose interactions across electrical subsystems and the broader product.
• Manage and develop a small team of electrical engineers, setting technical priorities, creating clear ownership, providing mentorship and design review, and helping engineers grow while maintaining a high bar for technical execution.
• Demonstrated ability to lead ambiguous, cross-functional technical investigations, mentor other engineers, and drive complex engineering decisions to closure

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• Deep electrical engineering fundamentals across mixed-signal circuit design, power management, digital interfaces, signal integrity, and debugging of highly integrated systems
• 8+ years of relevant electrical engineering experience, with demonstrated technical leadership and ownership of complex electrical or embedded systems
• Strong commitment to embracing and leveraging AI tools in day-to-day tasks, ensuring AI-assisted work aligns with the same high-quality standards as personal contributions
• Strong experience with schematic capture and PCB design/review using ECAD tools such as Altium or equivalent
• Exceptional hands-on test, characterization, and debugging skills, with the ability to use experimentation and data to understand complex system behavior and drive meaningful design changes
