Electrical Design at Motivo

Where Control, Power, and Integration Converge

Motivo’s electrical engineering team designs and builds the brains and veins of next-generation hardware. We specialize in tightly integrated, high-performance systems where electrical and software design are inseparable. From custom control boards to full power distribution networks, we develop robust, manufacturable electronics that support fast iteration and real-world durability. Whether you’re scaling a robotics platform, electrifying a mobility solution, or building mission-critical systems, our electrical engineers balance performance, safety, and scalability at every stage.

TALK TO OUR TEAM

How We Engineer Impact

Custom Hardware for Complex Applications

We design and build bespoke control systems, power management circuits, and PCBs tailored to your exact performance needs and spatial constraints.

Manufacturing-Ready Designs

Our schematics and board layouts are optimized for fabrication, testability, and low-volume or high-mix production, ensuring a smooth transition from prototype to production.

High Voltage and High Reliability

Whether designing 12V harnesses or 800V powertrains, we bring deep experience in high-voltage system design, insulation strategy, and thermal management.

Seamless System Integration

Electrical design at Motivo is never isolated. We work alongside mechanical and software teams to ensure complete system-level harmony and plug-and-play functionality.

15 Years of Motivo: Engineering Bold Ideas Into Reality

From a Garage to Global Impact Fifteen years ago, Motivo began in a 2,000 square foot garage with two engineers and two projects. The coffee was basic, the tools were limited, and the focus was sharp. The goal was to take ideas off the whiteboard and turn them into hardware that worked in the real world. That same spirit still drives the team today, even as the facilities and projects have grown. Building Hard Things in Hardtech Motivo has never taken on easy projects. The te

Physical AI: The Shift That Will Redefine How We Build, Work, and Live

Physical AI is rapidly beginning to show up everywhere, on conference panels, in product roadmaps, and across almost every forward looking tech conversation. However, beneath the buzz, there is a real movement happening. After sitting down with Damon Pipenberg, CTO at Motivo, it became very clear that Physical AI isn’t just another trend. It’s the next phase of how machines will operate in our world, combining data, intelligence, sensors, software, and hardware into systems t

AutoMobility LA 2025 recap

AutoMobility LA 2025 marked a significant turning point for the industry. For years, electrification, autonomy, intelligence, and design have developed separately. This event made it very clear that these distinct avenues are no longer developing in parallel, but are now rapidly coming together into one unified ecosystem, a present reality, not a future promise. Every unveiling, every keynote, every technical exchange pointed toward one idea: The future of mobility is no long
