The Robotics System Test Engineer will lead test strategies for robotic systems, perform testing in outdoor environments, and ensure safety and reliability for autonomous operations.

Lead systems engineering for autonomous robotic and electromechanical platforms across lifecycle: architecture, MBSE modeling, requirements, interface definition, integration, verification/validation, safety analyses, technical trade studies, and cross-disciplinary leadership supporting prototyping, testing, and field deployment.

Own a portfolio of customer sites running Tutor robots: diagnose software and hardware issues, build scripts/tooling and playbooks to automate recurring work, partner with engineering on fixes, track fleet health, and maintain customer relationships while spending onsite and remote time.

Develop, fine-tune, and deploy visual and language foundation models (e.g., SAM, DINO) to robots in the field; build cloud-based training and inference infrastructure; manage and optimize robot data flows and databases; contribute across the robotics stack including web UI and full-stack deployment.

Design, prototype, and validate mechanical systems for fielded robotics payloads including ruggedized enclosures, mounts, thermal management, and manufacturability. Perform CAD, FEA, thermal simulation, testing (vibration, ingress, thermal), vendor coordination, production support, and cross-functional integration with electrical and compute teams to ensure reliable field deployment.

The Robotics Perception Engineer will integrate real-time vision systems and perception infrastructure for UAS, develop camera pipelines, and implement sensor fusion algorithms for reliable performance across operating conditions.

Own and ship behavior and mission orchestration software that turns autonomy into repeatable, reliable field missions. Architect behavior orchestration, human-robot interaction, mission execution and fallback, validate on physical platforms, close the loop from field data to product, lead design reviews, and mentor cross-functional teams.

Own and scale the end-to-end provisioning pipeline for a fleet of outdoor robots: OS imaging, hardware configuration, EOL testing, deployment, monitoring, and field re-provisioning.
