Mechanical Engineer
Parallel Systems is building autonomous, battery-electric rail vehicles to modernize freight transportation. We are seeking a Mechanical Engineer to help design and build the next generation of our vehicles. This is a hands-on role for an early-career engineer who wants to work on real hardware, solve practical mechanical problems, and stay close to the build.
We are looking for people from top engineering programs who have already designed and built meaningful hardware through internships, Formula SAE, Baja SAE, Design/Build/Fly, rocket club, robotics, senior design, or similar technical programs. The right person is not just strong in theory, but knows how to turn ideas into physical parts, work through manufacturing constraints, and improve designs through testing and iteration.

Enterprise Account Executive
Parallel Systems is seeking a commercially driven, hands-on sales leader to own revenue generation and customer expansion across freight railroads, intermodal operators, and logistics partners. This is not a transactional sales role. You will operate at the intersection of freight economics, operations, and technology, positioning Parallel’s autonomous rail system to unlock new revenue, improve lane performance, and modernize how railroads compete with trucking.
You will act as a trusted commercial partner to customers, combining sales execution with a deep understanding of freight flows, lane economics, and customer value creation. This role is ideal for someone who has sold complex freight or logistics solutions, understands how shippers and brokers think about lanes, pricing, and service levels, and can translate that knowledge into durable rail partnerships.
You will collaborate closely with product, engineering, operations, and executive leadership to ensure commercial strategy, customer commitments, and deployments are aligned and scalable.
