Embedded Systems Integration Engineer

Figure is an AI robotics company developing autonomous general-purpose humanoid robots. The goal of the company is to ship humanoid robots with human level intelligence. Its robots are engineered to perform a variety of tasks in the home and commercial markets. Figure is headquartered in San Jose, CA. We’re seeking an Embedded Systems Integration Engineer to build the backend infrastructure that validates the interaction between our hardware, firmware, and software. You will be the connective tissue across disciplines: owning how changes to firmware or software are tested against real hardware. Your work ensures we ship reliable, integrated systems that just work. This is a hands-on role where you will design and implement automated test frameworks, bring-up flows, and validation pipelines for embedded subsystems. You'll be responsible for catching regressions early, enabling fast iteration, and giving clear system-level pass/fail signals across the stack. Key Responsibilities Architect test infrastructure that exercises end-to-end functionality of embedded systems across hardware, firmware, and software boundaries. Develop backend systems (Python, CLI tools, internal APIs) to run tests, log results, and determine pass/fail conditions. Bring up and validate subsystem and system level changes , tracking changes in behavior and performance across releases. Automate testing pipelines for regression detection and continuous integration. Debug and triage failures across layers—hardware faults, firmware bugs, or software integration issues. Collaborate with firmware, software, and hardware teams to define interface contracts and testable behaviors. Instrument devices under test using scopes, logic analyzers, and custom harnesses to characterize system response. Minimum Qualifications Bachelor’s in EE, CE, CS, or a related field. 3+ years of experience working with embedded systems. Strong understanding of how firmware interacts with hardware peripherals (I2C, Ethernet, SPI, CAN, UART, ADCs, GPIO, etc.). Proficiency in Python or similar scripting language for test automation. Experience bringing up custom embedded boards and working across firmware/software stacks. Familiarity with Linux-based development environments. Preferred Qualifications Experience with CI/CD tools (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, TeamCity). Knowledge of test automation frameworks (e.g., PyTest, Robot Framework). Exposure to hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) systems. Familiarity with board-level validation, power-on sequencing, or sensor verification. Prior experience in robotics, automotive, aerospace, or other complex embedded systems. Comfort working hands-on at the bench with test equipment. The US base salary range for this full-time position is between $140,000 and $180,000 annually. The pay offered for this position may vary based on several individual factors, including job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The total compensation package may also include additional components/benefits depending on the specific role. This information will be shared if an employment offer is extended.
