Systems Engineer

Responsibilities

• Define system and component level requirements through first principles analysis and hardware/model-based testing

• Own system-level architecture and interface definitions (ICDs) across mechanical, electrical and other verticals

• Prototype and characterize components and full systems to ensure target metrics are met

• Design and develop early system prototypes to de-risk new technologies

• Understand and highlight n-th order impacts of electrical, software, or process changes

• Triage and debug hardware and software interactions during design, launch, and deployment

• Be responsible for overall functional and performance readiness of a system and its features during the full product life cycle

• Analyze the failure modes and complete full DFMEAs/HARAs to ensure a safe subsystem design

• Define system-level test plans and acceptance criteria for integrated robot builds, from bench testing through field deployment

Qualifications

• Degree in engineering or related field or, equivalent experience

• 5+ years of experience in systems engineering or a cross-disciplinary hardware role involving complex electromechanical or robotic products

• Strong electrical and embedded systems fundamentals

• Hands-on technical experience debugging complex subsystems involving network microprocessors and software-controlled electrical or electromechanical devices

• Ability to read and interpret C/C++ or similar embedded systems languages

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Experience in MATLAB, Python, or equivalent tools for modeling and analysis

• Proficient in data visualization

• Experience in failure modes analysis, HARA and FTA

• You are comfortable with ambiguity, move fast, and have an “engineering curiosity” that drives you to understand how the entire system works, not just your part.
