ABOUT THE ROLE

Join an R&D team at an early-stage robotics company building software for AI-driven robots in production environments. You will work across the robotics stack, helping deliver systems that perform reliably in real-world facilities.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Coordinate real-time robot software, motion-planning optimization, and machine-learning pipelines across platforms.
• Build and maintain data-labeling interfaces, perception systems, and compilers for robotic applications.
• Work across firmware, robotics software, and cloud infrastructure to solve high-priority engineering challenges.
• Collaborate with teammates to design and ship software that improves robot capabilities.
• Deploy systems in customer facilities and help ensure software performs effectively in production.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Typically 1 to 3 years of software engineering experience in robotics, automation, or embedded systems, with production experience on physical robotic systems.
• Strong programming fundamentals and proficiency in Python; experience with TypeScript and React is a plus.
• Experience with robotics or embedded systems, including hardware and software integration. Familiarity with ROS, motion planning, or robot optimization is beneficial.
• Knowledge of Docker, Kubernetes, and systemd is helpful; C/C++ experience is also relevant.
• A bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, robotics, or a related engineering field.
• Ability to take ownership of engineering outcomes and adapt in a fast-moving, high-ownership environment.
