Jobs at Parallel Systems

Own and develop SOLIDWORKS PDM and broader product lifecycle and manufacturing systems. Responsibilities include PDM administration, engineering release and change control, CAD and product data standards, PDM-to-Odoo integration, automation, user support, and evaluation of MES, quality, and traceability platforms. The role establishes configuration management processes spanning as-designed, as-planned, and as-built product data while partnering with engineering, manufacturing, quality, and supply chain teams.

Own RFQs and purchase orders from request through delivery, manage supplier commitments, track inventory and open orders, evaluate supplier performance, and prevent shortages. Partner with engineering to forecast purchasing needs, maintain accurate procurement data in Odoo, and improve purchasing workflows. The role supports hardware production and offers opportunities to expand into strategic sourcing and supplier selection.

Support the CEO by managing calendars, inboxes, travel, meetings, communications, confidential information, and follow-ups. Oversee office operations, visitor coordination, internal systems, events, offsites, and space planning. Partner with leadership and the Chief of Staff on special projects while improving executive efficiency and workplace culture.

Develops operation, maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair documentation for autonomous battery-electric rail vehicles. Works with engineering, manufacturing, vehicle operations, and field teams to translate complex systems into manuals, work instructions, visual aids, and annotated schematics. Manages terminology, revision control, and engineering-change synchronization while validating documentation through product reviews, testing, and field activities.

Develop real-time perception and sensor-fusion software for autonomous battery-electric rail vehicles. Responsibilities include processing lidar, camera, IMU, and GPS data; implementing computer vision, state estimation, calibration, tracking, and optimization algorithms; validating systems in simulation and field deployments; supporting ruggedized sensor hardware; and collaborating across ML, firmware, embedded, and systems engineering teams.

Lead systems engineering for autonomous battery-electric rail vehicles. Define system needs, architecture, requirements, interfaces, trade studies, and roadmaps; decompose requirements across engineering disciplines; manage traceability; develop verification, validation, integration, and compliance plans; lead design reviews and FMEA; and guide testing, integration, reliability, and safety improvements across hardware, firmware, software, and railroad control systems.

Develop and test embedded software for autonomous rail vehicles using bare-metal and RTOS-based systems. Implement communication protocols, state machines, and command/control functions primarily in Rust. Integrate and debug hardware-software interfaces, write unit and integration tests on hardware test stands, and contribute to code reviews, documentation, and engineering improvements.

Design, build, and operate scalable MLOps infrastructure for data ingestion, distributed training, deployment, CI/CD, experiment tracking, and monitoring across cloud R&D and production. Collaborate with ML, autonomy, robotics, and software teams to deliver architecture, PoCs, and production-ready ML pipelines that support real-time, safety-critical systems.

Lead and coordinate cross-functional execution across hardware, firmware, and software for autonomous rail vehicles. Maintain the integrated master schedule, track milestones and risks, drive resolution of blockers, align requirements across teams, facilitate planning and reporting, and support vehicle and software integration and releases to ensure on-time delivery.

The Mechanical Engineer will design components for autonomous rail vehicles, create CAD models, and troubleshoot mechanical issues. The role involves collaboration across teams and extensive hands-on work with hardware.

Design, develop, and maintain test frameworks and hardware test stands for autonomous rail vehicles; manage CI pipelines, internal tooling, and documentation; guide testing strategy, mentor engineers, and occasionally lead projects to ensure regulatory and safety compliance.

The Senior Mechanical Engineer will design and analyze mechanical systems for autonomous battery-electric rail vehicles, focusing on dynamics, safety, and durability while conducting simulations and FEA.

The Director of Sales will drive revenue generation and customer expansion in the freight rail sector, creating partnerships and aligning commercial strategies with customers, while executing sales from prospecting to closing.

Develop and maintain drivers, kernel modules, and firmware for embedded Linux on ARM/NVIDIA platforms to ingest high-throughput camera and lidar data. Optimize real-time sensor pipelines for latency, jitter, and data integrity, profile GPU/kernel performance, and validate sensor firmware/configurations across revisions. Collaborate with platform and perception teams to bring up hardware and harden production systems.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will design and optimize system applications, develop backend systems, and enhance performance for autonomous rail vehicle operations.
