2+ years in systems/integration engineering for automotive/defense/autonomy programs.
Experience with vehicle hardware integration: harnessing, sensor/compute mounting, architecture.
Willingness to travel extensively, including international trips and multi-week stays.
Excellent written and verbal communication across technical and non-technical audiences.

Responsibilities

Define hardware architecture for a build (compute, sensors) and procure long-lead components.
Coordinate wiring harness design/build and sensor mounting with cross‑team alignment.
Specify sensor tuning requirements (camera ISP, resolution, latency) and track to closure.
Lead vehicle builds and demo prep onsite, domestically and internationally.
