[job_card.job_description]

We're supporting a robotics company that is building next-generation autonomous construction systems. They are looking for a Hardware Engineer (2–10 years’ experience) who is passionate about robotics, hands‑on engineering, and building production‑ready systems from the ground up. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast‑paced, pragmatic environment and wants to see their work deployed on real construction sites, directly impacting one of the world’s most inefficient industries.

This would be a full time, onsite position in SF and relocation assistance is available.

Key Responsibilities :

  • Design and develop teleoperation hardware systems, including power, compute, and control modules for heavy machinery retrofits.
  • Integrate and calibrate sensors such as cameras, LiDAR, radar, GNSS, and IMUs.
  • Create wiring harnesses and mechanical mounting systems for sensors, actuators, and control electronics.
  • Implement and validate communication protocols including CAN, LIN, J1939, Ethernet and Serial.
  • Support system bring‑up and HIL (hardware‑in‑the‑loop) testing in partnership with software teams.
  • Work in fast iteration cycles and support on‑site deployments; travel up to 50% to construction sites.

Key Qualifications :

  • 2–10 years of hardware engineering experience in robotics, autonomous vehicles, heavy machinery, industrial automation, or similarly high‑reliability electromechanical systems.
  • Prior founding‑engineer or founder experience (startup outcome irrelevant).
  • Demonstrated 0?1 engineering experience in any context (startup, side project, research, etc.).
  • At least one standout “spike” : elite academic program, exceptional professional track record, or substantial self‑driven robotics / perception work.
  • BS / MS / PhD in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics, or related field.
  • Strong experience in electrical + mechanical integration (wiring harnesses, power systems, mounting, DFM, prototyping, reliability testing).
  • Experience integrating sensors such as LiDAR, radar, GNSS / RTK, IMUs, stereo / mono cameras, with familiarity across GMSL, Ethernet, CAN, LIN, J1939, Serial.
  • Hands‑on, deployment‑driven mindset with high ownership and resilience.
