Über diese Principal Safety Systems Engineer Stelle bei Robust Ai
About you and this role:
Robust AI is a fast-growing, early-stage startup founded in 2019 by an unsurpassed team of veterans in robotics, AI and business. We are a collaborative group with a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives, seeking talented individuals who are just as excited about robotics and AI as we are! Help us redefine the very foundation of robotics and build robots that are smart, collaborative, robust, safe, flexible and genuinely autonomous.
As Principal Safety Systems Engineer at Robust AI, you will lead safety strategy for a small, fast-paced team designing and deploying the next generation of warehouse robotic systems. You will own the safety and compliance roadmap end-to-end — setting technical direction, driving decisions independently, and representing safety in front of customers, regulators, and leadership. Working closely with engineering, you'll drive testing, influence design decisions at the architecture level, and manage relationships with outside certification bodies. This role is best suited for someone who has done this before, is comfortable operating with significant autonomy in an early-stage environment, and can pivot effectively as priorities shift. The base pay range for this role is between $180,000 and $220,000, dependent on your skills, qualifications, and experience.
Main responsibilities:
Serve as the subject-matter authority on relevant safety standards across the organization
Lead testing strategy and execution against safety standards, including engagement with external certification bodies
Develop and manage system safety requirements, hazard analyses, and risk assessments
Produce safety case reports and certification documentation, and maintain full traceability of safety requirements
Mentor and guide engineers on safety best practices as the team scales
What you'll bring to the table:
Deep proficiency in safety analysis tools (FTA, FMEA, FMEDA, hazard logs)
Excellent problem-solving, cross-functional leadership, communication, and documentation abilities
Experience with AMR safety standards (R15.08, ISO 3691-4, ISO 12100)
Prior experience leading safety certification efforts with external bodies is a strong plus
What we offer:
Stock options and huge potential for growth.
Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage.
Flexible vacation and sick leave practices.
Paid parental leave.
