Field Deployment Engineer

You 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 machines

installing compute, sensors, power systems, and mounts in harsh environments

validating safety circuits, E-Stops, and lockout/tagout procedures

diagnosing install-time issues caused by vibration, heat, dust, or strain

working outdoors, on-site, in tough conditions

You care deeply about safety, robustness, and serviceability - because in the field, install quality determines reliability.

Together, we will:

install autonomy systems on heavy equipment safely and repeatably

turn complex installs into standardized, scalable procedures

harden hardware integration against real-world abuse

enable dealers and partners to perform installs independently

build the physical backbone that allows autonomy to scale globally

We’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.

Lead 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.

Validate 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.

Create 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.

Act 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.

Deep immersion on customer sites worldwide

~40–70% travel depending on deployment cycles.

You 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.

Solve a massive set of real-world problems that require scalable earth moving

Accomplish that via deploying and expanding cutting edge tech
