-
Extensive experience in designing, implementing, and deploying advanced control algorithms on real robotic system products (8+ years)
-
Deep expertise in dynamics, kinematics, optimal control, and state estimation
-
Strong command of hardware interfaces, sensors (IMUs, F/T sensors), and actuation technologies (motors, gearboxes, drivers)
-
Production-level mastery of C++ with a track record of building reliable, safety-critical software
-
Proven ability to bridge across hardware, software, and algorithms to deliver robust end-to-end systems
-
An open mind about the power of deep learning, reinforcement learning, and vision-language-action models as critical for general-purpose robotics
-
Bonus: Experience shipping humanoid robots or whole-body control systems
-
Bonus: Impactful published work in control theory, state estimation, or mathematical optimization
-
Bonus: Familiarity with parallel computation on GPUs to accelerate optimization
