The Dexterous AI Group (DAG) is hiring a System Engineer to own the project at the system level: translating product intent into verifiable requirements, resolving cross-domain trade-offs, and driving the discipline needed to take a design from MVP through pre-production toward volume manufacturing. You will be the person who makes sure the mechanical, electrical, firmware, software, and sensor sub-systems fit together — by design, not by accident. What You Will Do Own system requirements. Write and maintain System Requirements Specifications (SRS) and Interface Control Documents (ICD) across mechanical, electrical, firmware, software, and sensor sub-systems. Lead architecture trade studies. Drive cross-disciplinary decisions (e.g., packaging approach, thermal/mechanical/electrical budget allocation, whether a fix belongs in firmware or host software) where sub-system optima conflict. Own the hardware-software boundary. Define and maintain the interfaces between sensor/electrical hardware and the software stack that consumes it (calibration, signal processing, drivers/SDK, data formats), so hardware and software teams build to the same contract. Drive verification & reliability. Own the V&V plan and FMEA process across the product lifecycle (EVT / DVT / PVT), and translate failure risk into design and test requirements — including software and firmware failure modes. Bridge prototype to production. Identify manufacturability, yield, and process risks before they surface at scale; partner with process/fab and contract manufacturing partners. Interface with external partners. Define and negotiate system-level interfaces — hardware and software/API — with external collaborators and customers integrating our solutions. Build the practice. Establish lightweight systems-engineering tooling and documentation standards (requirements traceability, review gates) suited to our team's size and stage. What We're Looking For 8+ years (12+ years preferred) in systems engineering of complex electromechanical or mechatronic products, including their embedded/host software. A completed prototype-to-production journey. Direct, hands-on experience taking a hardware and software product from MVP/prototype through to a manufacturable, production-qualified release — not just participation in reviews. Cross-domain fluency. Comfortable reading CAD drawings, electrical schematics, firmware/sensor specs, and software architecture/API designs well enough to spot interface conflicts, without needing to be the deepest expert in any one domain. Hands-on tool proficiency. Working proficiency with mechanical CAD (e.g., OnShape or equivalent) and circuit design/schematic-capture tools (e.g., Altium or equivalent) sufficient to review, redline, or directly interrogate designs; enough coding ability (e.g., Python, C++) to script analysis, build small verification/test tooling, or prototype an interface. Curiosity and initiative around AI. A demonstrated habit of learning new engineering tools and putting them to practical use, with an eagerness to do the same with AI-enabled tools for analysis, documentation, prototyping, and verification. Prior experience building AI or machine-learning systems is not required; sound judgment about when to use these tools and how to validate their output is. Reliability & test methodology. Working knowledge of DFMEA, DVP&R, root-cause analysis, and structured V&V planning, applied across hardware and software. Domain background. Robotics, sensors, tactile sensing, or dexterous manipulation experience is a strong plus; broader electromechanical and embedded-software product backgrounds (automotive, medical device, consumer electronics) are also welcome. Collaboration style. Track record of earning trust and technical authority across engineering teams without formal reporting lines.
