• 3+ years of industry experience developing automated solutions using 6 DOF robots
• 3+ years of experience in Python3 or C++
• Proficiency with ROS, ROS2, or another robot-oriented software framework
• Proficiency with the following modern software development tools and principles: unix/linux systems, shell software (sh, bash, zsh), git, containerization, CI/CD, automation, OOP
• Excellent understanding of core robotics principles including homogenous transformations, forward and inverse kinematics, closed-loop control, path and motion planning, localization.
• Demonstrable experience using physical robot systems from industry leading manufacturers, such as ABB, FANUC, or KUKA
• Proven experience taking robotics software from proof-of-concept to production; implementing features vertically through the stack and hardening them for the real world with observability, robust error handling, and graceful failure recovery
• Experience integrating software with robotic hardware, controllers, and higher-level task-planning systems, and validating it on physical robots, not only in simulation
• A track record of diagnosing and improving robot behavior using live-cell data, logs, and telemetry, closing the loop between what the simulation predicted and what the hardware actually did
• Skilled at partnering with mechanical and systems engineers to make software resilient to real-world tolerances, mechanical compliance, and part-to-part variability
• Able to communicate effectively and efficiently both verbally and in writing
• Ability to work in-person at Molg HQ in Sterling, VA.
