  • You will work hands-on with sensors, compute, power systems, harnesses, embedded controllers, drive systems, and thermal devices.
  • You will define subsystem interfaces, build test setups, debug hardware/software integration issues, and verify platform readiness before validation, manufacturing, or mission use.
  • Develop physical test setups, bench rigs, diagnostic workflows, and wiring harnesses to exercise integrated robot subsystems.
  • Develop and execute validation procedures to stress-test integrated systems, including battery, drivetrain, thermal, sensor, and embedded controller subsystems.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify edge cases and integration issues that impact platform safety, performance, and functionality.
  • Support early integration of new hardware subsystem designs by defining electrical, mechanical, firmware interface requirements, integration risks, dependencies, and hardware validation checks.
