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
You are a systems thinker with experience designing or validating safety-critical systems. You understand how safety emerges from the interaction of hardware, software, autonomy, operators, and the environment . You think in terms of hazards, failure modes, degraded behavior, mitigation, and validation.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Systems Engineering, Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, Robotics, or a related field
- 5+ years of experience with complex or safety-critical systems
- Experience with FMEA, Fault Tree Analysis, HAZOP, STPA, or similar safety methodologies
- Strong understanding of hardware-software integration
- Experience developing verification and validation strategies
- Ability to work across multidisciplinary engineering teams
More about this role
AIM builds autonomy for the real world — robots that move mountains.
Our systems combine software, hardware, robotics, and mission-critical infrastructure into ruggedized autonomous machines operating on jobsites around the world. Safety is a system-level property that must be designed across the autonomy stack, machine controls, hardware, operator interfaces, and operational workflows.
We are building the safety architectures and validation frameworks that allow autonomous heavy machinery to operate reliably around people, equipment, and critical infrastructure.
You are a systems thinker with experience designing or validating safety-critical systems.
You understand how safety emerges from the interaction of hardware, software, autonomy, operators, and the environment . You think in terms of hazards, failure modes, degraded behavior, mitigation, and validation.
You are comfortable working across robotics, controls, hardware, software, and field operations, and you translate safety analysis into real engineering requirements and system behavior.
As a Senior Safety Systems Engineer , you will own major safety workstreams across AIM’s autonomous machines, including:
