About Mytra :

We’re creating an entirely new way to solve the most ubiquitous problem in industry - moving and storing material. We’re applying robotics and distributed software to create a new class of product for this $1T market. We’re focused on the supply chain industry first. The industry is in a massive bind with the continued growth of e-commerce, sharp rise in costs, and supply chain disruptions. What has been a “sleepy” industry for decades is now at the epicenter of sustaining the global economy.

About the role :

As the Director of Systems Engineering, you’ll lead the Systems Engineering, System Integration, and System Test functions through the entire product development cycle, developing systems (robotics, among others) that are performant and deployable at scale. You’ll lead the team to ensure systems meet requirements, conflicts are discovered early, and risks are identified before they become problems. You'll establish processes that make development more efficient and you’ll connect Product, Engineering, and Operations teams. Great candidates are pragmatic and flexible, can draw from deep experience in autonomous mobile robotics, and have successfully led development of impactful engineering systems at scale. This role requires on-site presence at our Brisbane, CA headquarters, for close collaboration with the other teams.

Responsibilities :

  • Manage a team of engineers and managers, providing guidance, mentorship, and support to ensure the successful delivery of our systems for deployment at scale

  • Testing the systems to validate functional performance, quality assurance, and reliability
  • Ensuring compliance of safety-critical systems
  • Support the Systems team and the larger organization by identifying gaps and developing frameworks, processes, and tools to make the work more efficient (e.g. optimizing performance, reliability, and cost, tracking risk, and establishing internal release standards)
  • Collaborate with core engineering disciplines, including firmware, software, mechanical, electrical, structural, robotics, and AI, to ensure that products are built to spec and built right, minimizing revision needs
  • Identify opportunities for, as well as, foster innovation, learning, and continuous improvement within the Systems team and across the organization
  • Qualifications :

  • You understand robotics or automation environments, and have experience building ground-up, complex hardware-software systems
  • 15+ years of hardware / software engineering experience, developing complex or safety-critical systems, with a minimum of 5 years in Systems and 5 years leading engineering / systems teams
  • You have proven experience recruiting, leading, and growing engineering ICs and managers
  • You have demonstrated the ability to guide solutions to complex, multidisciplinary problems, and bringing cross-functional teams together to deliver on complex systems
  • You are experienced and looking forward to building processes, systems, and teams from scratch, and can scale these as the business grows
  • B.S. or higher degree in Systems Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical, Mechanical, or other relevant discipline
  • Preferred Qualifications :

  • You have a track record of successfully launching innovative products in the automation or robotics space
  • You have experience defining and / or implementing processes that drive efficiency at scale
  • You have excellent communication skills and and strong analytical and problem-solving skills, drive results, and take responsibility for outcomes
