• Prefill-Gustav- Vehicle Integration Specialist

    Insight Global (Palo Alto, CA)


    Job Description

    About the Role: The Vehicle Integration role bridges the gap between engineering and hands-on prototyping, supporting the bring-up, integration, and operation of prototype vehicles. You’ll work at the intersection of hardware and software, ensuring vehicle-level software builds integrate smoothly across domains (chassis, body, thermal, infotainment, etc.) while keeping our prototype fleet in top operational condition. This position is ideal for someone who is equal parts technician and engineer—comfortable turning wrenches in the garage, flashing ECUs in the lab, and debugging integration issues in the field. You will play a critical role in accelerating development cycles by supporting daily vehicle operations, executing test procedures, and feeding issues and insights back to the engineering teams.
