Job Title: Integration Engineer

Location: Foster City, CA (Hybrid)

Duration: 06+ months (Possible Extension)

Pay rate: $80/hr. - $83.00/hr. on w2 (All Inclusive)

Job Description:

• 5+ years of relevant experience as a hardware engineer, test engineer, or systems validation engineer with a strong focus on electrical/physical layer debugging across multiple subsystems.
• Hands-on experience troubleshooting at least two of the following domains: compute/processing hardware (thermal, power, storage), vehicle controls and power systems (CAN bus, battery/voltage management), networking (automotive Ethernet, switch/link diagnostics), or sensor hardware (camera, lidar, radar, or thermal imaging systems).
• Working knowledge of common diagnostic tools (oscilloscopes, protocol analyzers, multimeters, network traffic generators) to evaluate hardware performance and formulate actionable solutions.
• Ability to systematically triage field issues, distinguish hardware faults from software/configuration issues, and drive investigations to root cause with guidance from senior engineers.
• Comfortable working across ambiguous, multi-subsystem problems where the root cause is not initially known.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Familiarity with Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and network synchronization concepts, GMSL2 technologies, and HPC technologies.
• Experience with scripting languages (such as Python or Bash) to automate testing, parse fleet logs, and control lab equipment.
• Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills, with a track record of effectively partnering with fleet support operations and hardware design teams.
• Exposure to embedded Linux systems, CAN/automotive networking, or storage/NVMe subsystems.
