About the Role

Join the R&D team at an early-stage robotics company, building software that powers AI-driven robots in production environments. This hands-on role spans the robotics stack, connecting software to physical systems and real-world performance.

What You'll Do

  • Coordinate real-time robot software, motion-planning optimization, and machine-learning pipelines across multiple platforms.
  • Build and maintain data-labeling frontends, perception systems, and compilers for robotic systems.
  • Work across the stack, from embedded firmware to cloud infrastructure, to address key engineering challenges.
  • Collaborate with teammates to design and ship systems for capable, flexible robots.
  • Deploy software in customer facilities and improve robotic performance in production.

What We're Looking For

  • One to three years of software engineering experience in robotics, automation, or embedded systems.
  • Experience building and shipping software for physical robotic systems, such as robotic arms, manipulation systems, or autonomous hardware, in production or customer environments.
  • Strong programming fundamentals and proficiency in Python; TypeScript and React are a plus.
  • Hands-on experience with production robotics systems, hardware/software integration, and end-to-end ownership of an engineering outcome.
  • A bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, robotics, or a related engineering field.
  • Experience in a fast-moving startup or other high-ownership environment, with flexibility to work across changing priorities.
  • Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, systemd, ROS, motion planning, or robot optimization is beneficial.
