Remote Autonomous Systems Engineer information

What are Remote Autonomous Systems Engineers?

Remote Autonomous Systems Engineers are professionals who design, develop, and maintain autonomous systems—such as drones, robots, or vehicles—while working remotely. They use advanced software, sensors, and algorithms to ensure these systems can operate independently and safely. Their work involves tasks like programming control systems, integrating hardware components, and troubleshooting issues from a remote location. These engineers often collaborate with teams virtually and leverage cloud-based tools to monitor and update autonomous systems deployed in various environments.

What are some common challenges faced by Remote Autonomous Systems Engineers, and how can they be addressed?

Remote Autonomous Systems Engineers often encounter challenges related to communication and collaboration, as they work with multidisciplinary teams across different locations and time zones. Managing system integration and troubleshooting without on-site access can also pose difficulties, requiring strong documentation and remote diagnostic tools. Staying updated on rapidly evolving technologies in autonomy further demands ongoing learning. To address these challenges, engineers should leverage clear communication channels, utilize collaborative platforms, and participate in continuous training opportunities.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Autonomous Systems Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Autonomous Systems Engineer, you need a strong background in robotics, control systems, programming (such as Python or C++), and a relevant engineering degree. Experience with simulation tools like ROS (Robot Operating System), MATLAB, and familiarity with machine learning or AI frameworks are typically required, along with certifications in automation or robotics being advantageous. Strong problem-solving skills, self-motivation, and effective remote communication set top candidates apart in this role. These skills and qualities are essential for designing, troubleshooting, and improving autonomous systems while collaborating efficiently within distributed teams.

Job description

Job Description - Systems Engineer
Location: Huntsville, AL

As a Systems Engineer, you will participate in development and production programs integral to X-Bow's success. This position will support the design, development, test, and operation of propellant manufacturing systems and novel solid rocket motors. Typical responsibilities for this position include:

  • Systems Engineering
    • Support the Systems Engineering process and manage documentation for solid rocket motor programs: architecture and CONOPS development; requirements development and management; development and management of interfaces; verification planning and management.
    • Develop, maintain, and utilize Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) models and tools (such as Cameo) to support system architecture, requirements traceability, interface definition, and verification planning throughout the program lifecycle.
    • Manage verification activities; write, manage, review, and digest test and analysis reports as it pertains to the system and its requirements; support Functional/Physical Configuration Audits.
    • Maintain configurations of development and test designs.
    • Support technical reviews (PDR, CDR, etc.); develop entry/exit criteria, manage content.
    • Coordinate between technical disciplines (mechanical, electrical, software, etc.) to identify and resolve technical issues and risks as well as identify, capture, and implement opportunities.
    • Embed yourself into design and development activities; understand and influence technical trade-offs and impacts to overall system; work with IPT and Engineering Leads to drive design cycles.
    • Other SE activities as required for the Program you are supporting.
  • Program Management Support
    • Provide risk management support.
    • Provide configuration management and data management support.
  • Other Program Support
    • Opportunity to get hands-on with equipment through assembly and integration activities.
    • Up to 20% travel to program location or equipment deployment.
Qualifications

X-Bow is interested in motivated individuals with excellent communication and technical writing skills, proficient in MS Office and common engineering applications. In addition, candidates should have the following:

  • Experience with Model-Based Systems Engineering tools such as Cameo.
  • Experience developing system level architecture and performing system level trade studies.
  • Experience producing system engineering products, such as requirement specifications, interface definitions, verification plans and reports, etc.
  • Experience with databases, data management, and configuration management.
  • Experience leading or supporting major program milestone reviews.
  • 3+ years of experience as an SE supporting an IPT or development effort.

Candidates with the following are preferred:

  • Experience with digital collaboration and management tools such as Confluence and Jira.
  • Experience designing, assembling, testing parts and components, specifically related to aerospace or energetic manufacturing products.
Desired Experience

3+ years of experience in a related field is desired. Experience with solid rocket motor/launch vehicle development and manufacturing is a plus.

Education

Bachelor's Degree or higher in Mechanical/Aerospace Engineering or equivalent.

Location Requirements

Primary work will be performed in Huntsville, AL. This job can be worked remotely with the appropriate work ethic and discipline. Additional travel may be required if remote.
