Dyna Robotics median: 62 days open

The posting

Dyna Robotics builds general-purpose robots powered by a proprietary embodied AI foundation model with top-in-industry generalization and real-world performance. Already deployed with customers across multiple industries, our robots do commercial-grade work in the physical world. Our team comes from Google DeepMind, Meta, and Cruise, and we're backed by CRV, First Round, and other leading investors.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for a Staff Robotics Systems Integration Engineer to own the hardware and systems health of our humanoid robot fleet, and to shape how our hardware strategy evolves as we scale.

This is an early, high-ownership seat. You won’t inherit a roadmap, you’ll help write it. You’ll set technical direction for fleet reliability, hardware qualification, calibration, and test infrastructure, and influence hardware decisions across mechanical, electrical, firmware, and controls.

It’s also genuinely hands-on. The same person who sets the long-term reliability strategy should be comfortable pulling an arm off a robot, probing a suspect driver board, soldering a fix, and designing the bracket that makes the repair stick. You’ll sit at the intersection of hardware, firmware, controls, and data, and you’ll be the person the team calls when a robot does something nobody can explain.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Own the roadmap. Define and drive the hardware reliability and integration priorities based on fleet data and customer impact.

- Shape hardware strategy. Turn field evidence into input for next-generation actuator selection, electrical architecture, thermal design, and serviceability, and make the case for those changes with mechanical, electrical, and firmware partners.

- Set the standards. Establish qualification, validation, and release practices (EVT/DVT/PVT-style gates, incoming test, pre-merge validation).

- Root-cause complex failures. Actuator dropouts, encoder and calibration drift, thermal events, CAN bus faults, and control-stack bugs, separating true hardware degradation from firmware, calibration, and model-side causes.

- Work hands-on with the hardware. Bench-test, rework, and repair actuators and electronics, and design and build the fixtures, jigs, brackets, and small modifications that go with them. Turn evidence on backlash, wear, preload, and hard-stop behavior into concrete design changes, in close partnership with the mechanical team.

- Build fleet health systems. Health metrics and alerting tuned to real faults rather than noise floors, calibration and characterization tooling with safety gates, and telemetry pipelines for bandwidth-constrained robots (MCAP, npz, episode archives).

- Raise the engineering bar. Review PRs across firmware, control code, and deployment config, and write runbooks, SOPs, and incident reports clean enough that a teammate can pick the work up cold.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

- 7+ years in robotics, mechatronics, hardware test, or reliability engineering, with significant time on fielded hardware rather than lab prototypes.

- A track record of owning technical direction: setting priorities, making hardware tradeoff calls, and influencing partner teams without formal authority.

- Comfort with ambiguity. You’d rather define the problem and the plan than wait for them.

- Hands-on instincts: soldering iron, multimeter, calipers, and the ability to tear down, repair, and re-commission electromechanical assemblies without waiting on another team.

- Deep familiarity with how actuators fail mechanically (backlash, wear, preload loss, end-stop damage), and enough design sense to hold your own in a design review.

- Working knowledge of robot control (impedance and torque-controlled actuators, controller state lifecycles) to recognize when a “hardware” fault is actually a controls bug.

- Fluency with quasi-direct-drive actuators, encoders, torque and current telemetry, CAN, and calibration and zeroing procedures.

- Strong Python for data analysis and tooling, with solid time-series instincts around noise floors, drift, and persistence rules, plus experience with Datadog or similar and PR-based workflows.

- Rigor about evidence. You distinguish measured from commanded and correlation from cause, and you won’t set a baseline on contaminated data.

BONUS POINTS FOR

- Experience with teleoperation systems, VR interfaces, or data-collection fleets

- Hardware qualification (EVT/DVT/PVT) or manufacturing and incoming test experience

- Experience as an early member of a hardware team or building a function from scratch

- MuJoCo simulation sanity-checking

- A track record of building tools and SOPs that other engineers actually adopt

At Dyna Robotics, we build technology for the real world, which requires a team as diverse as the environments our robots inhabit. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to technical rigor and mutual respect.

Don’t let a checklist stop you. Data shows that underrepresented groups often only apply if they meet 100% of the criteria. We value problem-solving and grit over keyword matching. If you’re passionate about robotics, no matter your discipline, we want to hear from you, even if you don't check every box.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
