Job Description
Senior Systems Engineer
Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.
ABOUT THE ROLE
We are seeking a Senior Systems Engineer to join our innovative team based in London. In this role, you will lead the creation and management of system-level and technical functional requirements using MBSE methodologies, ensuring a robust, traceable, and integrated system definition for our robotic platforms.Your focus will include developing a deep technical understanding of system and subsystem technical requirements, leveraging that knowledge to create and maintain the system model (e.g., in Matlab System Composer), and supporting the derivation of engineering artifacts and the validation of resulting designs, collaborating closely with subject matter experts (SMEs) across technical domains. To excel in this position, you must showcase your ability to influence, adapt to dynamic environments, make decisive judgments under pressure, and establish a clear technical vision for implementing Model-Based Systems Engineering methodologies.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Obtain inputs from System Technical Leaders and SMEs to translate stakeholder needs into verifiable requirements within the system model.
- Develop and document technical-level requirements for robotic systems, capturing them and their relationships within the system model.
- Define and maintain the system architecture, interfaces, and behavior using a Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) approach.
- Influence the development of Engineering artifacts, their technical direction and ultimately stakeholder satisfaction by ensuring model consistency and integrity.
- Identify and analyse the interfaces and interactions across systems/components boundaries using the system model as the single source of truth.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (mechanical, software, and controls) to ensure system requirements and architectural models are cohesive and achievable.
- Provide expertise and guidance to ensure our engineers understand the problem completely and stakeholder needs through effective coaching on MBSE and Systems Engineering practices (early and later lifecycle stages).
- Ensure the appropriate level of concepting, modelling and simulation techniques are used across the lifecycle to inform architectures and solution options, leveraging model simulation capabilities.
- Track the status of requirements and their verification/validation throughout the product development lifecycle using model-based traceability.
- Troubleshoot and resolve complex system-level issues by tracing them back to the architectural and requirements definitions in the system model, in collaboration with the development team.
- Maintain detailed documentation, including system architectures, requirement traceability matrices, and test reports.
- Ensure that designs comply with relevant standards and certifications.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
- 5+ years of experience in systems engineering with a focus on defining complex systems, preferably in robotics, automation, or similar industries.
- Expertise in Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) methodologies and tools (e.g., SysML, Cameo Systems Modeler, Sparx Enterprise Architect, Rhapsody).
- Demonstrated experience in developing and maintaining system models (architecture, requirements, behavior) for complex embedded systems.
- Experience with requirements management tools (e.g., DOORS, Jama, Polarion).
- Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills ... (truncated, view full listing at source)
