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 Robot Infrastructure Engineer focused on collection tooling, you will make high-quality robot demonstrations and human corrections easy to capture and use. You will build the teleoperation workflows, quality checks, and ingestion tools that turn a session at the robot into training data the team can trust. This is a tooling role, not a role running a large collection operation. 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: Build teleoperation and operator tools for leader arms, VR, and other interfaces, including calibration, action mapping, latency, and reliable recording. Implement episode workflows for task instructions, start and stop, resets, annotations, success labels, and human takeover, keeping a clean boundary between policy actions and human corrections. Build collection quality checks for frame drops, timestamp alignment, missing signals, calibration validity, and incomplete episodes, with feedback operators can act on immediately. Build collection specifications and adapters that validate data delivered by external partners against task requirements, schemas, calibration, and provenance. Keep raw recordings as the source of truth and make normalization and export to training formats reproducible. Show collection progress and coverage against the task so the team collects the missing variations and hard cases, not more of the same. Test everything on real robots and document setup and troubleshooting so engineers, operators, and partners can run collection without you in the room. We're looking for someone who has: Built data collection, teleoperation, sensor recording, or human-in-the-loop tooling used on real robots or autonomous systems, and validated it on hardware. Strong Python skills and software engineering fundamentals, including APIs, tests, versioned schemas, and debugging data pipelines. Experience with synchronized video, robot state, actions, or other multimodal time-series data. Working knowledge of coordinate frames, sensor calibration, data provenance, and how collection errors show up in trained models. Experience building tools for other people, watching them fail in real use, and simplifying without hiding data-quality problems. The ability to turn a task description into an executable collection workflow together with learning, hardware, and operations colleagues. Nice to Have: Experience with ROS 2, MCAP, LeRobot, HDF5, or adapters between robotics datasets. Experience with VR teleoperation, leader-follower systems, motion retargeting, haptics, or takeover-based learning. Experience building video and trajectory inspection, annotation, dataset validation, or data grading tools. Experience with sensor fusion, offline trajectory reconstruction, coverage analysis, or active data collection. Compensation at Applied Intuition for eligible roles includes base salary, equity, and benefits. Base salary is a single component of the total compensation package, which may also include equity in the form of options and/or restricted stock units, comprehensive health, dental, vision, life and disability insurance coverage, 401k retirement benefits with employer match, learning and wellness stipends, and paid time off.

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: We're looking for a Systems Integration Engineer to own the hardware and software decisions that make a vehicle build actually work — from compute and sensor architecture down to harness routing, sensor tuning, and drive-by-wire (DBW) integration. You'll work hands-on across hardware, embedded, and autonomy software to take a vehicle from architecture to a working, demo-ready system. This is a hands-on systems/hardware engineering role: you'll make and defend real technical tradeoffs (sensor and compute architecture, harness design, DBW tuning approach), and travel onsite — including internationally and for extended stretches — to lead builds and installs in person. What you'll do: Technical integration & hardware Define hardware architecture for a build (compute, sensors) and drive procurement of long-lead-time components, including supplier onboarding and purchasing-process decisions. Coordinate wiring harness design/build and sensor mounting workstreams, resolving cross-team dependencies between mechanical design, harness build, and shipping timelines. Specify sensor tuning requirements (e.g., camera ISP parameters, resolution, glass-to-glass latency) in partnership with hardware and perception teams, and track them to closure. Autonomy & drive-by-wire coordination Partner with autonomy and low-level controls teams to scope DBW validation and tuning plans, distinguishing what's needed for teleoperation vs. full autonomy. Identify and flag technical risk early (e.g., insufficient DBW tuning lead time ahead of a demo) directly to the engineering team, and drive a resolution. Field operations & site standup Travel onsite — domestically and internationally, including extended stays — to lead vehicle builds, hardware installs, and demo prep in person. Scope new operational sites in new regions from an engineering standpoint: assess power/network/IT infrastructure needs and prep hardware for regulatory/compliance site visits. Cross-functional engineering collaboration Work daily across hardware, embedded, and autonomy software teams to resolve integration issues and keep builds moving. Communicate fluidly between deep technical detail and higher-level engineering summaries when working with adjacent teams. What we're looking for Required 2+ years of experience in systems/integration engineering, ideally on automotive, robotics, defense, or autonomy programs. Working knowledge of vehicle hardware integration — harnessing, sensor/compute mounting, and hardware architecture — sufficient to make and defend build decisions. Comfortable making and owning real engineering tradeoffs under a firm deadline (e.g., tuning approach, sensor spec, hardware architecture). Willingness and ability to travel extensively, including internationally and for multi-week stretches. Excellent written and verbal communication, able to move fluidly between deep technical detail and higher-level engineering summaries. Bachelors Degree in Software Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or relevant field Preferred Experience with drive-by-wire (DBW) systems and low-level vehicle controls (PID tuning, system identification, slippage/traction compensation). Experience specifying or validating camera/sensor requirements (ISP tuning, latency, resolution, frame rate). Experience standing up new operational sites or facilities, including vendor sourcing and regulatory/permit coordination. BS in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related field. Experience on defense or government customer programs.
