Senior Reality Capture & Sensor Payload Engineer (Robotics Hardware) - Hybrid

About the Role

Field AI is building risk-aware, reliable AI systems that help robots understand and operate in the real world. On our Hardware Team, you’ll design and deliver sensor modules that turn our robots into dependable data-collection platforms for customers.

Responsibilities

• Select and evaluate sensors for specific robotic data-collection needs
• Own calibration and electro-mechanical integration of sensor payloads
• Build and execute validation plans to confirm performance in real-world conditions
• Develop and improve data pipelines that move sensor output from capture through processing
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure payloads meet product and customer requirements

Requirements

• Experience integrating sensors into robotic or embedded hardware systems
• Strong understanding of calibration, validation, and measurement-driven engineering
• Hands-on electro-mechanical integration experience
• Familiarity with data pipeline development for sensor/robot telemetry and processing workflows
• Ability to troubleshoot issues from prototype through field deployment

Benefits

• Work on robotics hardware that ships globally and improves through real-field feedback
• Join a team focused on reliability, safety, and practical deployment
• Opportunity to shape sensor payload strategy end-to-end, from selection to data delivery
