AIM delivers autonomous earthmoving for mining, construction, and defense. Transform your fleet with AI-powered machines that maximize productivity and safety. Backed by General Catalyst and Khosla.
About the role
AIM builds autonomous machines that must continuously improve as they operate in the real world. Performance is not theoretical - it’s measured in productivity, efficiency, and predictability on real jobsites. Field Optimization Engineers focus on making autonomy better at real tasks, closing the loop between field behavior and AI, planning, and control systems.
What they're looking for
- analyzing autonomy performance metrics and error distributions
- observing operators and understanding task-level workflows
- diagnosing why a behavior works in theory but fails in practice
- translating field observations into model and planning improvements
- validating changes through real-world testing
- You believe the field is the ultimate teacher - and that learning from it is a competitive advantage
