Deploy software in customer facilities and improve robotic performance in real-world settings.
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 used in production or by customers, plus ownership of outcomes end to end.
-
Strong programming fundamentals and proficiency in Python; TypeScript and React are useful.
-
Hands-on experience with production robotics systems and hardware/software integration.
-
A bachelor's degree or higher in computer science, robotics, or a related engineering field.
-
Experience in a fast-moving startup or high-ownership engineering environment, and flexibility to work across changing priorities.
