Senior Hardware Engineering

Hardware Engineer - Autonomous Construction Vehicles Base Salary Range: $200,000-$300,000
Overview We’re partnering with a fast‑growing robotics startup that is redefining how heavy construction equipment is built and deployed. This team is retrofitting real‑world machinery with plug‑and‑play autonomy systems and already has live deployments on active construction sites.
This is a hands‑on hardware role for engineers who love building physical systems from scratch and want to see their work operating in the real world—not stuck in a lab or prototype phase.
Why this role stands out Work on autonomous construction vehicles deployed on live job sites
Join a team that went from zero to production deployments in months
Mission‑driven focus on fixing inefficiencies in construction and housing
Responsibilities Design and develop teleoperation and autonomy hardware systems , including power, compute, and control modules for heavy equipment retrofits
Design and build wiring harnesses , connectors, and mounting solutions for rugged field deployment
Support system bring‑up, debugging, and hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HIL) testing in collaboration with software and robotics teams
Troubleshoot issues in both lab and field environments and iterate quickly
Qualifications 2-10 years of experience in hardware engineering, robotics, automotive, or embedded systems
Strong hands‑on experience with electrical systems, sensors, and embedded hardware
Experience with vehicle or industrial communication protocols (CAN/J1939 strongly preferred)
Builder mindset — you enjoy shipping, iterating, and seeing systems operate in production
Passion for robotics, autonomy, and building things that matter
Employment type Full‑time
Industries Construction, Agriculture, Construction, Mining Machinery Manufacturing, Software Development
