Senior Electrical Engineer - PCB Design

Overview

Ride Controller is a technology company specializing in advanced vehicle control and display solutions for construction, marine, automotive, and specialty applications. We develop customizable hardware and software systems that integrate lighting, audio, and other auxiliary functions into a single intuitive interface. Ride Controller products are designed for durability in harsh environments, offering robust wireless connectivity, touch and physical controls, and integration with modern infotainment displays.

Our solutions are popular among specialty vehicles, construction equipment, boat manufacturers, custom vehicle builders, and powersports seeking professional-grade control systems with a clean, user-friendly experience.

At Ride Controller you will be exposed to the cutting edge of vehicles, boats, and machines as we design-build the foundation of what controls them. We are currently searching for a full-time Senior Electrical Design Engineer to design the hardware that runs the backbone of our control platform. These devices will then communicate to an HMI-touchscreen and or mobile application. This role would be located at our new headquarters in Mission, Kansas (currently located near Boulevard Beer but moving soon).

Ride Controller is ideal for someone who doesn’t want to be in a corporate machine but rather wants a big opportunity to build a company and be rewarded for that growth.

If you re tired of corporate bureaucracy—being siloed into a narrow slice of product design, navigating endless politics, or working in environments that lack true commitment to design excellence—and instead crave real ownership, broad impact, and growth in a dynamic setting where your work directly shapes industry-leading innovations, this is your opportunity. We re experiencing strong year-over-year growth and need a talented Electrical Design Engineer to help us scale the backbone of our control platforms: devices that integrate seamlessly with HMIs, touchscreens, and mobile apps.

In this role, you’ll be responsible for performing complex schematic design, PCB layout, troubleshooting and debugging, using established design standards and procedures. In addition to working with various equipment (multimeters, power supplies, oscilloscopes and more), you will provide technical leadership and project planning for complex analog, digital and/or RF designs
