Electrical Integration Technician

The future of defense will be decided by those who field intelligent machines at scale. At Scout AI, we’re developing Fury, the first robotic foundation model for defense, to give U.S. forces overwhelming, adaptable, and autonomous power across every domain. Fury enables human operators to command fleets of robots through natural language, and empowers those machines to sense, decide, and act together as one. This mission will ask everything of us: urgency, precision, and relentless work.

The Role

You will be responsible for electrical integration, system assembly, and operational readiness of Scout AI’s robotic platforms. This role requires hands-on experience working with electrical systems, wiring harnesses, sensors, power systems, and robotics hardware.

You’ll play a critical role in bridging engineering development and real-world deployment ensuring systems are built correctly, tested thoroughly, and ready for mission operations.
