HavocAI is an artificial intelligence company that offers maritime autonomy solutions to the Defense and Commercial markets. Backed by Drive Capital.
About the role
Platform Integration: Integrate HavocAI autonomy software onto new and existing robotic platforms, including autonomous vessels, drones, ground vehicles and other unmanned systems. Connect it to vehicle control systems, autopilots, sensors, actuators, embedded compute and platform-specific interfaces. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Vehicle Controls & Autopilots: Work with autopilot and flight or vehicle control systems, including MAVLink-based interfaces. Configure, validate and troubleshoot the command and telemetry paths between HavocAI autonomy and low-level vehicle systems
- Test & Field Support: Support system bring-up, bench and hardware-in-the-loop testing, dockside and ground testing, sea trials, flight tests and field demonstrations
- Troubleshooting: Diagnose issues across software, networking, embedded hardware, sensors, power, controls and platform behavior, using logs, telemetry, test equipment and what you see in the field
- Tools & Documentation: Build scripts, tools, configuration files, interface documentation and repeatable integration procedures that make each new platform bring-up faster and more reliable
- Cross-Functional Collaboration & Improvement: Partner with autonomy, embedded software, hardware, field operations and product teams to improve integration and reliability. Turn lessons from field testing into product, architecture and process improvements
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Computer, Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering, Robotics, Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent hands-on experience

About the Role
As a Vehicle Autonomy Integration Engineer, you'll bring HavocAI autonomy onto real vehicles and robotic platforms. You'll work where autonomy software meets physical systems: vehicle controls, autopilots, sensors, actuators, onboard compute, networking and platform interfaces. Your job is to make autonomous systems perform reliably in the field.
This is a hands-on role. You'll spend a lot of time with hardware: bringing up new platforms, debugging interfaces, validating vehicle behavior and supporting field tests. We're hiring several engineers across experience levels, from...
