We build the perception stack that lets vehicles and aircraft understand where they are and what's around them using cameras. To prove it, that stack has to leave the lab and live on real machines: a Polaris RZR running drive-by-wire on a test range, a Group II VTOL aircraft, compact heavy machinery, a trunk-mounted compute rack, a camera bar bolted to a roof at highway speed. Someone has to make those physical systems actually exist, survive, and be rebuildable by the next person. You'll partner with our Field Robotics Engineer to execute the mechanical and physical integration of our test platforms and products: enclosures, mounts, cable harnesses, power distribution, drive-by-wire installation, actuation, and the bring-up that turns a pile of well-chosen components into a machine that works in the dirt at 6am. This is deliberately a builder's role. You are the person who takes an Orin carrier board, a set of GMSL2 cameras, a DC-DC converter, a DbW kit, and a target vehicle, and turns them into an integrated, serviceable, documented system with a real enclosure and a harness that doesn't chafe through in three months. We're looking for a natural maker. You probably have a 3D printer at home and opinions about it. You can walk up to a manual mill and take a cut without supervision. You've ordered parts from SendCutSend, and you designed those parts knowing how they'd be cut. When something physical is broken or missing, your instinct is to go build it. Our current fleet was built quickly and under deadline pressure, which means much of it is one-off, undocumented, and more fragile than it should be. The first year of this job is turning that into hardware we can reproduce, service, and hand to a field engineer with confidence., * Own mechanical design of enclosures, brackets, sensor mounts, camera bars, and vehicle/airframe interfaces in parametric CAD, designed for how parts actually get made. * Build what you design: run our printers, machine and finish your own prototypes, and manage outside vendors for the rest. * Design, build, and document cable harnesses end to end, from pinouts and connector selection through as-builts and spares. * Integrate electrical components you didn't design: power distribution, DC-DC conversion, fusing, grounding, batteries, and load budgets. * Install, wire, and maintain drive-by-wire systems on our ground platforms, including CAN wiring, actuators, and E-stop and safety interlocks. * Integrate and bring up motors, speed controllers, servos, and gimbals, and characterize them on the bench before they fly or drive. * Take builds from parts to a documented, verified platform, and support field test campaigns and client demos with pre-trip readiness and on-site repair. * Own procurement and vendor management for fasteners, stock, sheet metal, machining, connectors, and specialty suppliers.
