About Us: Automated Tire (ATI) is on a mission to reinvent tire changing and wheel balancing using cutting-edge robotics. We are transforming a process that hasn’t fundamentally changed in decades into an automated, high-performance system built for the future of automotive service. Founded by experienced entrepreneurs and backed by leading players across the automotive and tire industries, ATI is building technology that will redefine how cars are serviced. Our team combines deep robotics expertise with real world deployment, moving fast from prototype to production and scaling solutions directly in the field. If you are excited by hands-on robotics, real-world impact, and the challenge of building category-defining technology from the ground up, ATI is the place to do the most meaningful work of your career. Position Overview: We’re seeking a hands-on, technically versatile Application Integration Engineer to join our growing team. This is a full-time, on-site role ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of prototyping, deployment, and field testing. You’ll own key systems that bridge development and real-world performance. This role is an elevated pathway for high-performing technical staff with proven aptitude in mechatronics, system configuration, and cross-functional problem solving. Key Responsibilities: Own and maintain ATI’s vehicle configuration library, ensuring reliable system operation across a wide range of vehicle make/models/trim. Validate and improve configuration performance, incorporating version control and scalable update methods. Define and advocate for new features in tools and software to support scalability and fleet consistency. Document and lead troubleshooting procedures across robotic subsystems. Design and fabricate custom tools, fixtures, and hardware to improve safety, repeatability, and efficiency. Assist with mechanical prototyping using 3D printing, welding, machining, and COTS part selection. Collaborate closely with mechanical, electrical, and software teams to resolve system interface and performance issues. Lead assembly of robotic systems end-to-end: Log engineering change orders (ECOs), document redlines, and suggest DFM/DFA improvements. Apply best practices in system build, cable management, harnessing, and enclosure design. Assemble and wire control panels, sensor arrays, and motion subassemblies. Support the commission and go-live of deployed robot(s) at customer sites. Conduct field diagnostics and data collection to drive iterative improvements: Identify critical spare parts, consumables, and recurring failure modes. Support on-site pilot tests, customer demos, and system deployment. Train and mentor technicians on build procedures, equipment operation, and safety standards. Requirements 8+ years hands-on experience configuring electro-mechanical systems in a real-world setting. Skilled in electrical wiring, mechanical assembly, and root cause troubleshooting. Experience using CAD tools (preferably Onshape or SolidWorks) for design and documentation. Competence in Linux working environment: familiar with command-line utilities. Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally. Demonstrated initiative, resourcefulness, and positive mindset. Demonstrated hands-on experience in automotive tire change and wheel balancing. Preferred Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in a STEM discipline (Engineering Technology, IT, Mechatronics, etc.) or equivalent technical experience Experience in manufacturing, automation, or hardware startups Veteran or prior service experience, especially with mechanical or vehicle systems Proficiency in creating test scripts, documenting procedures, and training others Familiarity with motion systems, sensors, and robotic subsystems.
