Hardware Engineer

Skills

About the Role

You will design, build, and improve agricultural camera systems, working closely with the Hardware Lead. You will own mechanical CAD and design projects, handle electrical integration and troubleshooting, and help establish quality checks for assemblies and subassemblies. On a given day you might refine an enclosure in CAD, build a wiring harness, diagnose a power issue, or develop a test fixture. You will take projects from concept to working hardware and make it reliable and repeatable in production, while partnering with Perception and Embedded Software teams on requirements and interfaces.
