This in-office expectation does not apply to contractor positions About Seoul Applied Intuition entered the Korean market in 2020. The team has rapidly grown over the past few years and established strategic relationships with major Korean automotive OEM customers. Based in Gangnam, the Seoul site consists of employees who previously come from LG, Ansys, Unity, and other renowned companies. About the Role Our defense customers are building fleets of unmanned aerial systems that have to fly, coordinate, and complete missions in the real world. We build the tools they use to develop that autonomy. Building those tools well, and knowing they hold up outside of simulation, requires engineers who have done this work themselves. We are seeking a Software Engineer to join our Korea office to build Applied Intuition's multi-agent autonomy development tools. This on-site role focuses on the capabilities defense customers rely on to design, train, and validate coordinated UAV behavior. You will collaborate frequently with our U.S. product engineering team, and work directly with Korean defense customers to translate their operational requirements into product capabilities. Key Responsibilities Design, develop, and maintain core features of Applied Intuition’s autonomy development tools, with a focus on multi-agent mission planning, coordination, and training workflows. Validate that our tools hold up in practice: build reference multi-agent UAV autonomy on top of the product, exercise the full workflow from simulation through deployment on real airframes, and turn what breaks into product requirements. Define how simulation should be used across the development cycle, including where fidelity matters, how tuning and validation workflows should be structured, and what it takes to close the gap between simulated and real flight behavior. Collaborate frequently with US-based product and engineering teams to deliver features on shared roadmaps, operating as the Korea-based extension of the global product teams. Contribute to system-level design and architecture, ensuring scalability, reliability, and performance. Run technical deep dives with Korean defense customers on selected features, probing their operational requirements, clarifying ambiguous needs, and translating what you learn into product specifications and roadmap input. Guide customers on how to get the most out of our tools when developing their own multi-agent unmanned systems, drawing on your own hands-on experience. Mentor engineers and share domain knowledge across the Korea team. Required Qualifications Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field. 5+ years of professional engineering experience, or equivalent research experience, in a fast-paced, customer-oriented environment. Hands-on experience in at least one of the following two areas: Unmanned aerial systems development : You have built and flown real unmanned aircraft, and understand UAS development end to end. You know what tuning process an airframe has to go through before it flies reliably, and where simulation does and does not help along the way. Multi-agent optimization and control : You have researched or engineered algorithms that coordinate multiple agents to carry out a mission optimally, including the use of ML methods such as reinforcement learning for this purpose. Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, C++, or similar. Experience working on complex, multidisciplinary projects in a collaborative team setting. Strong problem-solving skills and ability to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment. Excellent English communication skills, both written and verbal, for effective daily collaboration with the USA team and documentation. Ability to lead technical discussions directly with customers, drawing out requirements, challenging assumptions, and explaining design trade-offs to both engineers and domain experts. Preferred Qualifications Experience across both of the areas listed above. Familiarity with flight control stacks and autopilot software (e.g., PX4, ArduPilot), and with the ground control and data link elements of a complete unmanned aerial system. Familiarity with ATR, drone swarming, path planning, or aerospace control systems as a domain user perspective informing tool design. Experience building simulation platforms, ML training infrastructure, or developer tooling for robotics, autonomy, or defense applications. Experience in closed-network / air-gapped deployment environments common in defense. Professional fluency in Korean, for direct technical engagement with Korean defense customers. Why Join Us? Build the products that the Korean and global defense ecosystem relies on for autonomy development. Be part of a collaborative, customer-focused team that values innovation and rapid delivery. Opportunity to lead, mentor, and make a significant impact in a high-growth, mission-driven organization. Join our vibrant team in Korea, working on-site, collaborating daily with our USA team, and engaging with customers to drive innovation in unmanned vehicle autonomy.

We are an in-office company, and our expectation is that full-time 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. This in-office expectation does not apply to contractor positions About the role Applied Intuition is building a robot learning platform on Dana, its physical AI platform: the data infrastructure and training intelligence a company needs to make any robot learn an industrial task and keep improving it. The robotics team builds that platform and uses it to deliver robot autonomy on customer lines, training, evaluating, and deploying policies on real robots doing real industrial tasks. Everyone on the team works hands-on with hardware and sees their work reach customers. As a Hardware Engineer, you will turn commercially available robots into reliable systems for industrial autonomy and robot learning. You will work on retrofit kits and lab hardware, moving from CAD to fabrication, from a wiring fault to a working robot, and from a one-off fix to a documented kit someone else can install. The job is integrating and improving existing platforms, not designing a new robot from scratch. We are open to candidates at different experience levels who meet the requirements. We value demonstrated work on real systems, including equivalent practical experience, over a particular degree or title. At Applied Intuition, you will: Design and fabricate camera and gripper mounts, adapters, fixtures, end-effector interfaces, and compute enclosures that are rigid, serviceable, and easy to reproduce. Integrate arms, mobile bases, lift mechanisms, sensors, compute, power distribution, and cable harnesses into working robot systems with clear interface and load requirements. Take retrofit kits from requirements and CAD through supplier coordination, assembly, validation, bills of materials, and installation documentation. Work on cell safeguarding with qualified safety specialists and Facilities, including guarding, emergency stops, interlocks, and documented checks before robot operation. Diagnose mechanical and electrical faults, repair and recommission hardware, and separate physical failures from software and integration issues. Keep the lab ready with calibration fixtures, preventive maintenance, spares, configuration records, and clear operating and troubleshooting procedures. Turn recurring prototype and teleoperation rig requests into reusable hardware rather than undocumented one-off modifications. We're looking for someone who has: Designed, assembled, and deployed mechatronic or robotic hardware that has operated reliably outside a CAD model or a bench test. Strong CAD skills and hands-on experience with rapid prototyping, machining or fabrication vendors, mechanical assembly, and design iteration. Practical understanding of loads, stiffness, tolerances, fasteners, cable routing, and the tradeoffs in mounting sensors and actuators. Experience with low-voltage power, connectors, harnesses, and electrical troubleshooting with a multimeter and oscilloscope. Experience writing test procedures, bills of materials, assembly instructions, and maintenance documentation for physical systems. Careful judgment around robot hazards and comfort working across mechanical, electrical, controls, and software boundaries. Nice to Have: Experience integrating industrial arms, mobile manipulators, force and torque sensors, grippers, or dexterous hands.
