Systems Integration Engineer

About Grafton Sciences

We're building AI systems with general physical ability — the capacity to experiment, engineer, or manufacture anything. We believe achieving this is a key step towards building superintelligence. With deep technical roots and real-world progress at scale (e.g., a $42M NIH project), we're pushing the frontier of physical AI. Joining us means inventing from first principles, owning real systems end-to-end, and helping build a capability the world has never had before.

About the Role

We're seeking a Systems Integration Engineer to unify complex mechanical, electrical, firmware, controls, and robotics subsystems into fully operational tools and automated cells. You'll be on bring-up, debugging, hardware–software interactions, and system-level reliability. This is a deeply hands-on role for someone who thrives on making the whole system work — diagnosing cross-discipline issues, validating performance, and driving integration from prototype to stable operation.

Responsibilities

• Integrate mechanical, electrical, controls, firmware, and robotics components into reliable end-to-end systems.
• Contribute to system bring-up, debugging, calibration, and validation across complex electromechanical assemblies.
• Diagnose cross-discipline failures, trace root causes, and drive rapid fixes involving multiple engineering teams.
• Collaborate across robotics, automation, electrical, mechanical, and software teams to ensure smooth system-level operation.

Qualifications

• Strong experience integrating hardware and software systems in robotics, automation, manufacturing, or complex electromechanical products.
• Deep debugging instincts across mechanical, electrical, firmware, and controls interfaces.
• Ability to reason about system-level behavior, identify failure modes, and drive reliable operation across subsystems.
• Comfortable working hands-on with equipment, instrumentation, and prototypes in fast-moving engineering environments.

Above all, we look for candidates who can demonstrate world-class excellence.

Compensation

We offer competitive salary, meaningful equity, and benefits.
