The full description
We are looking for a Founding Electrical Engineer with 4-10 years of experience to join Colare and define how the world's leading space & defense, manufacturing, and robotics companies evaluate their next generation of electrical engineers. You'll bring deep hands-on EE expertise — ideally from a space & defense environment — and use it to design realistic, scenario-based assessments that capture real engineering judgment. This is a unique opportunity to work across multiple industries and domains, collaborating directly with engineering directors and VPs at leading deeptech companies. You'll manage a team of EE contractors and interns while shaping the foundational taxonomy of electrical engineering skills at scale. If you love both the technical depth of circuit design and the strategic breadth of working with industry leaders, this role is for you.
What will you be doing?
- Designing scenario-based assessments and simulation questions (PCB design, schematic design, circuit analysis) for clients across space & defense, robotics, and manufacturing
- Managing and overseeing a team of electrical engineering contractors and interns, disseminating tasks and ensuring quality of question and scenario creation
- Having direct conversations with directors of engineering and VPs at leading deeptech companies to learn their workflows and translate that into tailored evaluations
- Leading a foundational research project to build a comprehensive taxonomy that breaks down electrical engineering into all of its constituent skills and coverage areas
- Collaborating closely with the founder and the mechanical engineer to shape Colare's assessment platform and product direction
