Staff Systems Integration Engineer

About the role

The Staff Systems Integration Engineer will lead the bring-up and integration of new robotic systems, investigate complex root cause analysis, and develop supporting processes and architectures for more effective, efficient development.

Responsibilities

• Bring-up of new sub-systems (torso, perception, energy, compute) and their integration into full humanoid robotic systems
• Bring-up and integration of full robotic systems & drive collaboration with key partners and stakeholders
• Verify hardware/software interfaces and confirm system-level interactions during early development stages
• Develop, execute, and scale integration plans, anticipating future obstacles and developing plans to ensure readiness for prototype builds and delivery to partners and engineering verification and validation test campaigns
• Test Development & Execution Architect the strategy for nominal path functional tests to confirm correct operation of robot mobility, manipulation, perception, charging, and other functions
• Drive technical direction for the development of integration-level test cases and automated test workflows
• Track system-level performance, risks, & stability and provide feedback for design iteration
• Issue Triage & Root Cause Analysis Drive resolution of complex, systematic issues identified in system bring-up or functional testing and provide mentorship to the team to triage and resolve issues
• Drive cross-functional debugging sessions spanning mechanical, electrical, and software teams
• Use structured problem-solving and data analysis methods to identify root causes and define corrective actions
• Cross-Functional Collaboration Work closely with systems, hardware, software, and test engineers to ensure alignment between design intent, requirements, and system performance
• Document integration issues and outcomes in internal knowledge bases to accelerate future debugging and prevent recurrence
• Lead the creation and implementation of tools, diagnostic systems, and workflows that improve team productivity and system stability across the integration function
• Mentor engineers and technicians in systematic troubleshooting and integration practices

Qualifications

• Experience: 8+ years of experience in Systems Integration or related R&D functions with a focus on complex mechatronic or autonomous systems
• Breadth of experience working with systems and teams that include mechanical, electrical, and software components
• Proven knowledge of key architectures and functionality of electro-mechanical, compute, and power systems
• Proven track record designing and running engineering tests and characterizations for high performance platforms
• Proven ability to lead cross-functional deep-dives and drive definitive technical decisions during the triage of critical, multi-system anomalies
• Preferred: Experience with Nvidia Jetson
• Preferred: Experience with computer vision systems
• Technical Expertise: Expertise in integration methods of complex electro-mechanical systems that span systems, hardware, software, and control systems
• Expertise with system level, sub-system level, and component level debugging, data logging, and root cause analysis
• Expertise with instrumentation and test development
• Preferred: Experience in robotics, autonomous vehicles, aerospace, or other safety-critical domains
• Preferred: Knowledge of humanoid or mobile robotic architectures and subsystems
