As a Sr. System Integration Engineer at Reliable Robotics, you'll lead the integration of advanced automated systems, ensuring they meet rigorous safety and performance standards, making you a key player in transforming the future of air transportation.

Original posting from Reliable Robotics via Ashby

We're building safety-enhancing technology for aviation that will save lives. Automated aviation systems will enable a future where air transportation is safer, more convenient and fundamentally transformative to the way goods — and eventually people — move around the planet. We are a team of mission-driven engineers with experience across aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars working to make this future a reality.

As a System Integration Engineer at Reliable Robotics, you will work on a team with mechanical, electrical, and software engineers, reporting to the system integration engineering manager. This is a small team of highly motivated people designing, testing, and flying advanced automated systems. We enjoy combining mechanical and electrical hardware and getting it onto an aircraft safely and quickly.

Responsibilities

In your role as a system integration engineer, you will get to own vehicle level projects through the planning, design, and testing phases of development. You will own a large breadth of projects from primary flight control hardware, data acquisition hardware, hardware in the loop testing, ground station development, and integration with the software and human machine interface teams. You will be responsible for guiding the schedule and sequencing of large integration projects with significant ownership of which aircraft functions are the highest priority to be integrated and tested on vehicle.

Basic Success Criteria

  • Bachelor's degree in science or engineering or equivalent industry experience
  • 8+ Years of industry experience designing, integrating, and testing electromechanical systems
  • Solid understanding of engineering fundamentals
  • Experience using system design fundamentals
  • Experience reading electrical wiring schematics
  • Experience testing systems for proper performance
  • Experience writing and running code
  • Excellent project management skills

Preferred Criteria

  • Experience designing a system architecture and weighing design options to accomplish specific system requirements
  • Experience performing vehicle safety assessments, risk assessments, and contingency management
  • Ability to design, build, and operate test stands and equipment
  • Excellent measurement, technical writing, and data analysis skills
  • Eagerness to both teach and learn
  • Ability to work both independently and as a leader of a high performing team

The position will be located at our facility in Mountain View, California.
