RoboticsSystemEngineer

## Description FieldAI’s Irvine team is where embodied AI meets real robots, real sensors, and real field deployments. Based in the heart of Southern California’s robotics ecosystem, we build risk-aware, reliable, field-ready AI systems that solve the hardest problems in robotics and unlock the full potential of embodied intelligence. If you want your work to ship, get tested on hardware, and improve through real deployments, Irvine is the place. We go beyond typical data-driven approaches or pure transformer-only architectures, combining rigorous engineering with learning systems proven in globally deployed solutions that deliver results today and get better every time our robots run in the field. ## What You Get to Do Translate product goals, field learnings, and engineering assumptions into system-level, subsystem-level, interface, and platform requirements Identify ambiguous, incomplete, or difficult-to-validate requirements and improve clarity and traceability Develop system-level understanding of autonomy software, robotic platforms, operational constraints, and release workflows Define interface expectations across autonomy software, sensors, compute, and platform behavior Improve cross-component alignment and reduce integration risk through clearer ownership and interface definitions Establish validation criteria, release readiness expectations, and measurable acceptance thresholds Map requirements to validation methods, metrics, scenarios, and release evidence Review field and integration learnings to identify recurring system-level issues and convert them into reusable validation cases or requirement updates Partner cross-functionally with Autonomy, Robotics, Hardware, Simulation, Infrastructure, and Field teams to drive alignment on system behavior and release readiness ## What You Bring 8+ years of experience in robotics, autonomy, autonomous vehicles, mobile robots, humanoids, industrial robotics, or complex cyber-physical systems Strong understanding o
