Location (mandatory): Pittsburgh, PA Client is seeking a Temporary Systems Engineer to support day-to-day operations for research data collection environments. This person will help maintain, troubleshoot, and improve the hardware, software, and processes used to collect data for internal teams. The role involves working across multiple projects, coordinating with people from various disciplines (electrical, software, research, etc.), and ensuring systems stay running smoothly during active data collection sessions. This is a hands-on operational role — you won't be building systems from scratch, but you'll need to understand how they work well enough to keep them running, fix problems when they break, and improve processes over time. The work is onsite in Pittsburgh research/lab environments and requires strict adherence to data handling and participant privacy protocols.
