Job Description

Principal Platform Systems Engineer developing reliable cloud infrastructure and automated testing for maritime AI and robotic systems. Leading technical aspects in lab and edge environments.

Responsibilities:

  • Design and operate hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and software-in-the-loop (SIL) test environments, automating lab workflows and hardware bring-up paths for deterministic regression coverage.
  • Build and maintain robust deployment pipelines with specialized release gating for embedded and edge systems (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson), ensuring reliable updates for hardware-dependent software.
  • Develop standardized internal tooling and simulation/replay pipelines that improve "inner-loop" speed and reliability for robotics and ML engineering teams.
  • Implement observability mechanisms across lab rigs and edge deployments while providing technical leadership on architecture, standards, and cross-team quality gates.

Requirements:

  • 10+ years in systems/platform engineering, DevEx, or embedded infrastructure, with a proven ability to drive execution in ambiguous startup environments.
  • Deep expertise in Linux systems engineering, networking fundamentals, and production-level troubleshooting for containerized and reproducible runtime environments.
  • Hands-on experience with hardware interfaces (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN), low-level device communication, and integrating lab instrumentation into automated test harnesses.
  • Familiarity with the NVIDIA Jetson ecosystem, SDR/RF validation, or deploying AI/ML workloads at the edge in harsh or maritime operating environments.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary and equity package.
  • Hybrid work flexibility and professional development opportunities.
  • The chance to work on innovative robotics projects with a global environmental and security impact
