## About the role

Hydraulic System Characterization : Reverse-engineer and document OEM hydraulic circuits (pumps, main control valves, pilot circuits, steering and brake systems), producing ISO 1219 schematics and PQ, pressure, and response characterization for autonomous control. EH Actuation Design : Design retrofit electro-hydraulic interfaces (proportional pilot valves, steering and brake valves, shuttle/selector logic, and manifolds) that give the autonomy stack precise control while keeping manual operation intact. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

- Experience: 7+ years designing, integrating, or testing hydraulic and electro-hydraulic systems for mobile machinery (construction, agricultural, mining, or off-highway vehicles)
- Hydraulics Fundamentals: Strong command of open/closed-center and load-sensing circuits, pilot-operated and proportional valves, pump/valve PQ behavior, and hydraulic schematic reading and authoring (ISO 1219)
- Tools: Hands-on with pressure/flow instrumentation and data acquisition, familiarity with CAN/J1939 and hydraulic simulation (e.g., Amesim, Simscape, Automation Studio) a plus
- Functional Safety: Exposure to ISO 13849, ISO 25119, or similar standards a plus
