  • Understand technical requirements, problems, or client briefs and develop solutions.
  • Develop and enhance electro-mechanical systems and software for autonomous vehicles and related devices.
  • Apply engineering principles, best practices, and analysis in mechanical, electrical, electronics, and software domains.
  • Conduct applied research, document findings, and present reports.
  • Develop design documents for parts, sub-systems, and integrated systems.
  • Select tools and materials for manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance.
  • Integrate electro-mechanical systems and software into a fully integrated system.
  • Perform proof of concept, functionality, and reliability testing of components, sub-systems, and systems.
  • Lead testing efforts in laboratory and field environments, including marine settings.
  • Identify trends in runtime and failures of ASV components, subsystems, and systems through data analysis.
  • Identify system and process weaknesses and recommend improvements.
  • Support troubleshooting and independently resolve electrical and system-level issues.
  • Collaborate with technicians and provide guidance on build, integration, and testing.
  • Contribute to the development of ASV platforms and their interface software.
