We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that employees primarily work from their Applied Intuition office 5 days a week. However, we also recognize the importance of flexibility and trust our employees to manage their schedules responsibly. This may include occasional remote work, starting the day with morning meetings from home before heading to the office, or leaving earlier when needed to accommodate family commitments.
We're looking for a Hardware Systems Engineer with strong robotics and software expertise to own the system-, hardware-, and electrical/electronics (EE)-level requirements for a new Applied Intuition product of strategic importance. Working from vehicle-level requirements, you'll decompose and allocate them into clear, testable system and hardware requirements, and you'll define the EE systems for the test benches and rigs used to validate the product.
This is a requirements- and architecture-focused role - you will not perform hands-on hardware development (no schematic capture, PCB layout, or board bring-up). Instead, you define what the hardware and test infrastructure must do, own the requirements and architecture in a model-based environment, and establish the process, tooling, and traceability foundations - ASPICE, Polarion, and Cameo - that the rest of the program builds on.
Decompose and allocate vehicle-level requirements into system-, hardware-, and EE-level requirements; define system bounds, capabilities, and functional features.
Convert customer needs and autonomy/Vehicle OS use cases into system and hardware requirements and operational objectives for the system as a whole.
Ensure the built system meets its intended requirements, and keep requirements current as vehicle-level requirements evolve.
Define the electrical and electronics (EE) architecture for the test benches and rigs used to validate the product, including hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) rigs and bench setups.
Specify power distribution, wiring and harnessing, signal interfaces, instrumentation, data acquisition (DAQ), sensor/actuator emulation, and safety interlocks for benches and rigs.
Capture bench and rig requirements and interfaces, and partner with the teams that build and maintain them so the infrastructure delivers the coverage needed to verify system and software requirements.
Own validation and verification of requirements at both the system and hardware level.
Maintain end-to-end traceability across user journeys, features, system requirements, subsystem/hardware/EE requirements, bench and rig definitions, and test cases - across the full toolchain.
Define processes for ASPICE Level 2 compliance, partner with the QA team to meet industry standards (e.g., ISO 26262 functional safety), and configure Polarion (requirements management) and Cameo (architecture management) for compliant industry processes.
Work daily with hardware, embedded, perception, and autonomy software teams, providing requirements guidance so the delivered design stays as close as possible to the intended design.
Coordinate with test, validation, and lab teams to align bench and rig capability with the program's verification needs.
3+ years of systems or hardware systems engineering experience covering requirements, functional decomposition and allocation, analysis, and verification.
BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
Experience deriving and allocating requirements from higher-level (e.g., vehicle-level) requirements.
Working understanding of EE systems - power, wiring and harnessing, signal interfaces, instrumentation, and DAQ - sufficient to define test benches and rigs.
Excellent written and verbal communication - able to move fluidly between deep technical detail and stakeholder-level clarity.
Note: this role does not involve hands-on hardware development (schematic capture, PCB layout, or board bring-up).
Familiarity with software safety analyses (SW-FTA, SW-FMEA) or software safety case development at the application or platform level — this is a strong differentiator for this role
Familiarity with software tool classification and qualification activities per ISO 26262 Part 8
Experience across multiple vehicle domains — ADAS or propulsion or chassis, or body electronics — with an understanding of domain-specific safety challenges
Exposure to ASPICE (Automotive SPICE) software process assessments alongside ISO 26262
Experience working with third-party assessors through product assessment or audit cycles
Don’t meet every single requirement? If you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
