🦾 Full-time (100%)
💼 Your role
Deploying robots means more than training the latest policy. As a robotics SWE, you will work across the stack and define how developers, operators, and customers interact with our product. You know that a hardware abstraction layer and subsystem APIs are the foundation to a system in which a growing team of engineers can contribute without slowing down and that doesn’t break when hardware changes. You value delivering a polished product just as much as building a reliable, maintainable system.
Responsibilities
What you’ll be doing:
•
Develop the robotics stack from low-level drivers and behavior trees to health management and software configuration
•
Implement data and telemetry ingestion from the robots to the cloud
•
Build internal tools such as a teleoperation interface, robot fleet management, and data dashboard
•
Build classical robotics autonomy pipelines such as 3D mapping, localization, and autonomous navigation
•
Drive CI/CD pipelines, test frameworks, and developer tooling. You will establish practices ranging from memory safety to architectural guidelines
🤖 You
What you should have:
•
3+ years in a professional SWE environment, preferably in Robotics, Automotive, or Aerospace
•
Strong modern C++ experience and experience in Python
•
Solid fundamentals of Linux such as systemd, time synchronization, schedulers and networking fundamentals (TCP/UDP)
•
Experience in debugging complex issues using core dumps, debuggers (gdb), and application profiling (perf, ftrace)
•
Experience in test automation (unit tests, integration tests)
•
Worked on embedded platforms and sensor integration
Nice to have
These skills are a plus:
•
Experience in Rust, ROS2, or Zenoh
•
Experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and simulation-in-the-loop (SIL) testing
•
Experience with NVIDIA Jetson
•
Experience in common robotics algorithms (SLAM, pointcloud processing, control theory, computer vision)
As the first dedicated robotics SWE, you will have a massive impact on our engineering culture. As the team grows, you can remain a high-impact generalist and work across all layers of abstraction or specialize and lead individual subsystems.
Don’t worry if you don’t hit every check-mark. We value engineers who care about building great products and can learn to get things working. Just give it a go and apply.
