Hardware System Engineer

Hardware Systems Integrator Engineer / Hardware System Engineer

At Imagry, we are redefining urban mobility by proving that autonomous vehicles can navigate complex environments using vision-only technology. As our Hardware Systems Integration Engineer, you will be the lead architect responsible for the "nervous system" of our vehicles.

You won't just be selecting components; you will be evaluating infrastructure that enables our AI software to see, process, and react to the world in real-time.

Responsibilities:

• Vision-Centric Architecture: Lead the selection and integration of high-dynamic-range (HDR) automotive-grade cameras.
• Compute Platform Selection - Evaluate and benchmark high-performance edge platforms (e.g., NVIDIA Orin, Qualcomm Snapdragon, Ambarella, or custom SoC solutions) capable of handling massive parallel video streams with minimal latency.
• Thermal & Power Integrity: Design integration of computing HW into automotive grade environment. This work can be done with external suppliers.
• System Synchronization: design and ensure sensor synchronization.
• Redundancy Planning: architect fail-operational hardware systems to ensure the vehicle remains safe even if a specific component or communication bus fails.
• Present to and consult with the group leaders as to hardware design trade-offs

Requirements:

• Experience: 10+ years in Hardware/Systems Engineering, specifically within Automotive, Robotics, Defense or Aerospace (real-time, mission-critical)
• Computing Knowledge: Proven ability to architect systems around Heterogeneous Computing (CPU + GPU + NPU). Understanding of memory bandwidth versus raw TFLOPS, and floating points computing.
• Thermal Strategy: Experience with active and passive cooling for high-performance computing.
• Protocol Mastery: Expert-level knowledge of Automotive Ethernet, CANbus, and high-speed Serializer/Deserializer interfaces.
