Robotics Software Engineer

Role Overview

We are hiring a Robotics Software Engineer to build the software that runs autonomous and semi-autonomous robotic systems. The role combines deep robotics expertise with strong software engineering — shipping code that has to work in the physical world.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement perception, planning, and control software for robotic systems
• Build and integrate ROS / ROS2 nodes and middleware
• Develop simulation environments for testing and validation
• Diagnose and resolve issues across hardware, sensors, and software stack
• Contribute to architecture decisions across the robotics stack
• Partner with hardware, ML, and product teams on system design

Required Skills and Qualifications

• 3+ years in robotics software engineering
• Strong proficiency in C++ and Python
• Hands-on experience with ROS / ROS2
• Working knowledge of perception, SLAM, motion planning, or control
• Experience with simulation tools (Gazebo, Isaac Sim, MuJoCo) is a plus
• Solid software engineering fundamentals

What You'll Bring

• Curiosity to dig into systems and turn findings into shipped improvements
• Strong written communication and ability to explain technical decisions
• A test-and-learn mindset; you ship fast, measure, and iterate
• Comfort working asynchronously across time zones

What We Offer

• Fully remote, flexible work hours
• Performance-based bonus structure
• Annual learning & development stipend
• Health and wellness benefits (varies by location)
• Opportunity to work on high-scale, real-world impact projects
