Wireless Network Engineer

Boston, MA, US$110,000-$160,000Posted 2 days ago

Job Description

We are a fast-growing Physical AI company founded at MIT. We develop and deploy fleets of purpose-built industrial robots, building a future where AI-native robots handle all the repetitive and physically demanding work.

We're looking for a wireless engineer to advance the RF side of that mission: a low-infrastructure, long-range mesh network that keeps autonomous mobile robots connected in some of the harshest RF environments there are - active construction sites and industrial facilities full of steel, concrete, heavy machinery, and constant change. Your effort will directly shape the next generation of our network technology - from link-level behavior and propagation, up through routing, monitoring, and security - and your decisions will directly shape how the fleet scales.

Responsibilities

  • Design, deploy, and optimize long-range sub-GHz mesh networks at industrial facilities and construction sites
  • Characterize and model RF propagation and coverage in cluttered, dynamic environments with mobile nodes
  • Conduct wireless site surveys; define antenna placement and link budgets; guide deployment engineers and technicians
  • Analyze link- and MAC-level behavior to troubleshoot and resolve field issues with minimal customer impact
  • Evaluate radio platforms, spectrum options, and mesh routing approaches as the fleet grows
  • Advance our network monitoring, remote administration, and network security capabilities
  • Document designs, experiments, and test results

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's + 3 years of industry experience, or Master's + 2 years, in EE/CE or a related field
  • Strong grounding in RF fundamentals and wireless communications - propagation, modulation, link budgets, PHY/MAC behavior
  • Hands-on experience installing, configuring, and maintaining wireless networks in the real world
  • Experience conducting wireless site surveys and turning them into working deployments
  • Comfortable working low in the sta
