At Orca AI, we focus on developing and deploying advanced perception and autonomy systems for defense and mission-critical maritime environments. Our work spans across naval operations, unmanned platforms, and distributed sensing systems, operating under real-world constraints where reliability, adaptability, and rapid deployment are critical. We’re hiring a Systems Engineer to take ownership of how our systems are built, integrated, and deployed beyond the R&D environment. This role sits at the intersection of engineering, operations, and real-world execution, ensuring that what we develop can be reliably configured, installed, tested, and operated in field conditions. You will be responsible for the end-to-end system perspective, sensors, compute, comms, and software into working configurations that can be deployed in experiments and operational environments. From defining system setups and building deployment kits, through integrating and testing hardware and software, to supporting installations and field validation, you will ensure our technology works as intended outside the lab. What Will You Do? Own the system-level integration of Orca AI solutions across hardware, software, communications, and deployment environments Build, assemble, and integrate physical systems and kits for demos, experiments, and deployments Establish and maintain repeatable deployment configurations and system setups Support and execute system installations, demos, and field deployments in Israel and abroad Specify, evaluate, and procure hardware components (Jetson, cameras, sensors, communication modules, etc.) Work with suppliers and support component-level adaptations or custom builds when needed Drive system validation under real-world conditions and ensure readiness for operational use Support compliance and align systems with defense-related requirements when applicable Requirements 5+ years of experience working with complex physical systems (robotics, drones, autonomous sys
