Requirements and responsibilities
About the roleOur Field Deployment Engineers are responsible for the physical foundation of autonomy. This role is rooted in automechanical systems expertise—wiring, harnessing, power, mounts, and safety-critical integration on heavy equipment. You ensure AIM systems are installed safely, robustly, and repeatably on real machines in real environments—setting the baseline for everything that follows.About youYou are hands-on, methodical, and comfortable working where heavy equipment, wiring, and real-world constraints collide. You thrive in physical systems and take pride in doing the hard work correctly the first time.You are equally comfortable:routing and terminating wiring harnesses on large machinesinstalling compute, sensors, power systems, and mounts in harsh environmentsvalidating safety circuits, E-Stops, and lockout/tagout proceduresdiagnosing install-time issues caused by vibration, heat, dust, or strainworking outdoors, on-site, in tough conditionsYou care deeply about safety, robustness, and serviceability—because in the field, install quality determines reliability.About us togetherTogether, we will:install autonomy systems on heavy equipment safely and repeatablyturn complex installs into standardized, scalable proceduresharden hardware integration against real-world abuseenable dealers and partners to perform installs independentlybuild the physical backbone that allows autonomy to scale globallyWe’ll work in mud, heat, dust, and noise. We’ll iterate on hardware designs and procedures until installs are boring—because boring installs are safe installs.ResponsibilitiesMachine Installation & Hardware IntegrationLead physical installation of AIM hardware on heavy equipment (compute, sensors, wiring, power).Execute mechanical and electrical integration following standardized install procedures.Perform initial power-on, safety validation, and hardware acceptance checks.Safety & RobustnessValidate E-Stops, lockout/tagout, and safety-critical wiring.Identify install-related failure modes (vibration, dust, heat, strain relief).Propose improvements to mounts, harnessing, enclosures, and service access.Documentation & Dealer EnablementCreate and maintain install guides, wiring diagrams, and checklists.Define install acceptance criteria and handoff standards.Train and enable dealers to perform installs safely and independently.Customer Relationship & Trust BuildingAct as the bridge between customers and AIM engineering—clear, honest, technically grounded communication.Manage expectations around downtime, features, maintenance windows, and machine readiness.Build trust through competence, transparency, and ownership.TravelDeep immersion on customer sites worldwide~40–70% travel depending on deployment cycles.QualificationsBasic qualifications5+ years experience in auto mechanics, heavy equipment installation, field service, or similar.Hands-on experience with wiring, harnessing, sensors, power systems, and safety circuits.Comfort working on large machines in demanding field environments.Strong safety mindset and attention to detail.Ability to work autonomously under ambiguous, high-pressure conditions.Willingness to travel internationally and domestically, often on short notice.Preferred QualificationsExperience deploying robotics, autonomous systems, heavy equipment, or industrial automation.Experience with safety-critical systems, emergency stops, lockout/tagout, or functional safety frameworks.Familiarity with hydraulics, GNSS systems, perception stacks, or motion control systems.Experience developing service manuals, install guides, or field engineering playbooks.OEM or dealer network experience (e.g., Komatsu, Caterpillar, Volvo).How you’ll stand outYou can turn ambiguous field failures into structured, repeatable engineering test cases.You operate calmly under pressure and lead customers through complex issues.You write clean documentation, and clean bug reports.You thrive in the dirt, in the logs, and in the details.You bridge the gap between engineering vision and field reality.Why AIM?Joining AIM, You WillSolve a massive set of real-world problems that require scalable earth movingAccomplish that via deploying and expanding cutting edge techRun your workstreams with the largest degree of autonomyHave an opportunity for rapid growth and a large voice on the direction of the companyReceive company funded medical, dental, vision, 401k, life insurance, gourmet food & perksExperience a strong onsite collaboration (AIM offices, labs and proving grounds on the east side of the Greater Seattle area)Have an opportunity to travel to unique sites around the world (Americas, Australia, Africa & more)
