Position
Mach is looking for a Program Engineer to combine project coordination with hands-on technical execution for defense and commercial vehicle programs. This role turns customer requirements into practical integration work, clear milestones, and verified results.
You will work with customers, engineering, and program teams to plan and carry out integration, troubleshooting, and testing. The focus is on delivering customer programs while coordinating product-team involvement when work requires a product change or specialist support.
What You'll Be Doing
- Translate program requirements into integration tasks, test criteria, milestones, and clear technical handoffs with customers and engineering.
- Coordinate schedules, dependencies, open issues, and readiness for program milestones; communicate progress and raise risks early.
- Perform hands-on system integration and bring-up, using drawings, interface documentation, and engineering guidance to connect hardware and software.
- Troubleshoot electrical and mechanical integration issues, document observations, and help verify repairs or design changes.
- Plan and support vehicle tests and demonstrations, coordinate equipment readiness, and document results against agreed requirements.
- Record build configurations, component identification, test results, and rework so engineering teams can reproduce and support the system.
- Follow approved safety procedures and applicable program-specific handling, documentation, and training requirements.
Ideal Experience
The ideal candidate brings experience in several of the following areas:
- Technical execution and coordination of customer engineering projects involving vehicles, robotics, industrial equipment, or electromechanical systems.
- Integrating hardware, software, sensors, communications, or vehicle interfaces and diagnosing problems across system boundaries.
- Translating requirements into practical work plans, coordinating dependencies, and communicating status with customers and engineering teams.
- Supporting engineering prototypes, test vehicles, or builds that change as designs mature.
Requirements for Success
- Practical engineering judgment and the ability to turn an ambiguous program need into defined work and measurable results.
- A methodical approach to troubleshooting, with accurate notes that help others understand the problem and the work completed.
- Comfortable collaborating with engineers and raising safety, quality, or configuration concerns promptly.
- Ownership of technical work and follow-through on schedules, risks, and dependencies across multiple contributors.
- Willingness to learn new equipment and processes and to complete training required for assigned work.

About Mach
Mach builds production-ready autonomy for the world's toughest off-road environments. We help equipment manufacturers bring autonomous and semi-autonomous machines to market across agriculture, construction, mining, defense, and other industries. Our technology combines perception, navigation, planning, controls, connectivity, and operator tools to help heavy equipment work safely and consistently in the real world.
Position
Mach is looking for a Systems Engineer to turn autonomy capabilities into practical machine solutions, with a focus on construction equipment and jobsite applications. This is a hands-on systems role connecting sensing, software, machine interfaces, and field performance.
You will work across engineering disciplines to understand how a machine needs to operate, integrate the components that make it possible, and verify that the complete system performs as intended. Perception is a central part of the work, but success means more than improving a model: it means making the machine work reliably in its operating environment.
What You'll Be Doing
- Translate construction workflows and machine needs into clear system requirements, interfaces, operating assumptions, and test criteria.
- Integrate cameras, radar, LiDAR, positioning, and machine data as appropriate to the application, working with perception, controls, and software engineers.
- Evaluate sensor placement, calibration, coverage, and failure modes under changing terrain, visibility, dust, and jobsite conditions.
- Bring up and troubleshoot complete systems on machines, tracing issues across sensors, software, communications, and vehicle interfaces.
- Plan and execute bench and field tests, collect useful data, and turn results into documented engineering improvements.
- Document configurations, integration decisions, test results, and known limitations so solutions can be repeated and supported.
Ideal Experience
The ideal candidate brings experience in several of the following areas:
- Systems integration for robotics, autonomous vehicles, construction equipment, or other complex electromechanical products.
- Applying perception and positioning systems to real equipment, including sensor calibration, data quality, and environmental limitations.
- Developing requirements and verification plans that connect customer needs to measurable machine behavior.
- Working alongside software, electrical, and mechanical teams to resolve problems that span disciplines.
Requirements for Success
- Practical engineering judgment and a systematic approach to isolating problems, testing hypotheses, and validating fixes.
- Ability to inspect logs and sensor data, use programming or scripting to support analysis, and communicate findings clearly.
- Comfortable moving between technical requirements, hands-on integration, and field validation rather than working in only one discipline.
- Ownership of work from problem definition through verification, with clear communication about progress, risks, and dependencies.
- A safety-minded approach to testing heavy equipment and a willingness to learn the realities of construction operations.
Nice to Have
- Experience with off-road machinery, drive-by-wire integration, CAN communications, or vehicle control systems.
- Familiarity with C++, Python, robotics middleware, computer vision, or embedded and edge-computing platforms.
- Experience with sensor fusion, localization, terrain understanding, or obstacle detection in outdoor environments.
Position Specifics
- Job Type: Full-Time
- Location: on-site, Ely, Iowa
- Salary: $90,000 - $140,000 per year, dependent on experience and qualifications
- Travel: Approximately 10%–30%, with occasional periods of travel up to 50% based on customer and project needs.
Benefits
- Generous vacation and PTO
- 10+ paid holidays
