Senior Systems Integration Engineer

Role Overview

• Lead 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.

Requirements

• 6-8+ 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.
• 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.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, or related field.
