About the role
As a Senior Systems Engineer – GATN (Glydways Automated Transit Network), you will be the technical owner for how new features and system changes show up on the guideway. You will: You’ll work hands‑on at the track (e.g., GDF2 and project sites), in logs and dashboards, and in tools to turn “we need this to work on the track” into concrete scenarios, parameters, and decisions. We prefer to have this position on-site 3 or 4 days a week at Richmond, CA, but will consider remote for the right candidate.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field
- 4+ years of experience in a relevant industry
- 1+ years of experience in systems integration and test, system test, or verification and validation for complex hardware/software systems
- Ability to collaborate across diverse teams (autonomy, embedded, systems, operations, product) and drive alignment without direct authority
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills
- Experience planning and executing integration or systems-level test campaigns, including scenario design, success criteria and analysis
