Robotics Software Engineer

About the Role

Join an R&D team building software for AI-driven robots operating in real-world production environments. You will work across the robotics stack, developing systems that connect software to reliable performance in physical settings.

What You'll Do

• Integrate real-time robot software, motion-planning optimization systems, and machine learning pipelines across platforms.

• Build and maintain data-labeling frontends, perception systems, and compilers for robot intelligence.

• Work across the stack, from microcontroller firmware to cloud infrastructure, to solve high-priority technical problems.

• Collaborate with teammates to design and ship systems that expand what robots can do in production.

• Deploy software in customer facilities and improve robotic performance in real-world environments.

What We're Looking For

• Typically 2 to 4 years of software engineering experience in robotics, automation, or embedded systems, with experience beyond junior-level work.

• Production experience shipping robotics or other complex systems end to end, with demonstrated ownership of engineering outcomes.

• Strong programming fundamentals and proficiency in Python; experience with TypeScript, React, C/C++, Docker, Kubernetes, systemd, or ROS/ROS 2 is useful.

• Experience with hardware and software integration, and systems involving real-time requirements, reliability, or scale.

• A bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, robotics, or a related engineering field.

• Comfort working in a fast-moving, high-ownership environment and adapting priorities as technical needs change.
