We need a Hardware & Systems Integration Engineer to design, build, and orchestrate the physical systems behind our AI-powered imaging workflows. This is a full-time, hybrid role based in Lehi, Utah, where you’ll merge AI, robotics, and creative automation to transform how product imagery and videos are captured for online marketplaces.
What is a day in the life of a Hardware & Systems Integration Engineer?
- Design and automate hardware workflows involving robots, motion rigs, lighting, and cameras.
- Write Python or control scripts to manage and synchronize hardware systems (APIs, SDKs, or ROS integrations).
- Configure and control off-the-shelf robotics and lighting systems—no custom circuit design required.
- Set up and manage local and remote GPU servers used for running AI models (installation, optimization, uptime).
- Collaborate with the software and AI teams to align physical systems with model workflows.
- Prototype automation tools that simplify media production and logistics operations.
- Lead a junior engineer in assembling and testing hardware systems.
What You Won’t Need to Do
- No backend or web development.
- No AI model training, data processing, or ML deployment.
- No circuit design or soldering.
- Your job is to make the machines move and perform — not to write backend infrastructure or train models. You’ll have a dedicated software team for that.
What will I need to thrive in this role?
- 3–5+ years of experience in hardware systems integration, robotics, or automation engineering.
- Strong Python skills for automation, scripting, and hardware control.

- Familiarity with Linux systems, Docker, and GPU hardware setup.
- Working understanding of cameras, lighting, and motion systems used in photography or video production.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and a love for hands-on prototyping.
- AWS or cloud experience is a plus, but not required.
- (Optional) Familiarity with ROS, OpenCV, or other control frameworks.
What does high performance look like?
- You follow through with all assignments in a timely manner.
- You give 100% to all tasks and projects you are given.
- You take full ownership of your projects and follow through to completion.
- You ensure hardware systems perform reliably, efficiently, and in sync with AI workflows.
- You proactively identify opportunities to automate and improve production systems.
What is my potential for career growth?
- As a Hardware & Systems Integration Engineer, you’ll have opportunities to grow into roles focused on robotics system architecture, automation design leadership, or technical management. You’ll gain exposure to cross-functional AI, software, and production engineering teams and contribute to Pattern’s cutting-edge creative automation initiatives.
What does success look like in the first 30, 60, 90 days?
- 30 Days: Learn the existing hardware and imaging infrastructure, understand key automation systems, and begin hands-on integration work.
- 60 Days: Take ownership of specific hardware workflows and begin improving system reliability, synchronization, and performance.
- 90 Days: Deliver a fully functional automated hardware workflow integrated with AI pipelines, demonstrating measurable improvements in production efficiency.
What is the team like?
- You will work with other engineers and AI specialists and be supervised by VP of AI Transformation. This team is data-driven and results-oriented. You will collaborate regularly with members of your team to implement actionable solutions. Ideas and input are encouraged from all members.
