Welcome to Fi.

We’re a passionate team from Square, Google, Peloton, Uber, and more working to transform the dog-human relationship. Our mission? Develop cutting-edge technology to revolutionize what it means to be a dog parent.

The dog industry remains firmly stuck in the past and we are here to change that. Fi is leveraging our team's talent and expertise to improve the lives of the millions of dogs in the U.S. Real-time location tracking, activity, sleep and behavior monitoring – and that's just the beginning.

The most exciting aspect of our work? Bridging the communication gap between dogs and humans. Imagine a world where everyone knows how their dog feels in real time and how to keep their best friend in good shape. That's the future we're building at Fi.

If you're someone who thrives in innovative, collaborative work environments and feels strongly about helping dogs live longer, better lives, Fi could be the perfect fit. Join us in our pursuit of the “impossible,” or as we call it here “let me find a way,” to redefine the future of dog ownership together.

Fi is Looking for a Senior Electrical Engineer!

We are looking for an experienced Electrical Engineer to perform the electronics design and development of Fi devices from prototyping through mass production. This person will be a key member of Fi’s hardware team, and will be responsible for electronics R&D, new product introduction, and sustaining engineering. Our senior EE will work closely with a multidisciplinary team of engineers in the US and overseas to develop the most advanced products in the pet industry. This is an exciting role for an ambitious engineer to have a real impact at a fast-growing hardware startup!

Responsibilities:

• Perform electronics design and development for Fi products, from proof-of-concept prototyping through mass production and deployment
• Collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team of domestic and overseas engineers to develop system architecture, perform schematic capture and PCB layout, manage board bring-up, complete engineering validation and safety tests, and develop production processes
