Lead the Electrical Engineering Behind Products Used in Millions of Homes
SharkNinja's corded and cordless product portfolio spans some of the most technically demanding categories in consumer electronics — and the electrical engineering that powers them has to be exceptional. We're looking for a Director of Electrical Engineering to lead that work: a hands-on technical leader who can drive complex programs from early concept through high-volume production, and build a team that sets the standard for how we design and deliver hardware.
This is a role for someone who leads from the front. You'll be as comfortable reviewing a PCB layout or debugging a motor control circuit as you are presenting to senior leadership or partnering with contract manufacturers overseas. You set the technical bar, and your team feels it.
What You'll Own
You'll lead a team of electrical engineers responsible for the design, prototyping, and validation of electrical systems across SharkNinja's corded and cordless portfolio — with full accountability from architecture decisions through regulatory sign-off.
Lead electrical engineering across power electronics, embedded systems, circuit design, and hardware development for consumer products at scale
Own the full hardware development process: schematics, PCB layouts, circuit simulation, DVT, and compliance (UL, FCC, CE, IEC, and others)
Drive power system integration — power conversion, motor control, and energy-efficient solutions — ensuring performance and reliability at high volume
Ensure embedded system architecture meets requirements for performance, scalability, and real-time firmware integration
Champion DFM and DFT practices in close partnership with manufacturing, operations, and contract manufacturers
Collaborate cross-functionally with mechanical engineering, industrial design, product development, and R&D to ensure seamless system integration
Partner with external suppliers to deliver high-quality, cost-effective hardware solutions
Mentor and develop engineering talent — growing individual capabilities and building long-term team depth
What You Bring
8+ years in electrical engineering, with 3+ years in technical leadership or management role
Deep expertise in power electronics: power conversion, motor control, and battery systems
Solid background in embedded systems design, microcontrollers, and real-time firmware integration
Proven track record developing and launching high-volume consumer electronics
Strong grasp of DFM, DFT, and hardware regulatory compliance
Experience managing DVT processes and navigating certification requirements
Effective communicator — equally credible in a technical design review and an executive up
