Who we are

With its A.I.-powered robotic technology platform, Symbotic is changing the way consumer goods move through the supply chain. Intelligent software orchestrates advanced robots in a high-density, end-to‑end system – reinventing warehouse automation for increased efficiency, speed and flexibility.

What we need

We are looking for a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to join our team and play a key role in designing, developing, and maintaining Linux‑based systems for our robotics platform. In this role, you will own features end‑to‑end, collaborate across disciplines, and bring technical depth in areas such as Linux BSPs, Linux kernel driver development, wireless subsystems, and camera sensor integration.

What we do

We are a team of roboticists and software engineers responsible for all software and firmware aspects of our mobile robots. These robots handle cartons inside warehouse structures, moving them to and from storage locations. The reliability of our mobile robots is central to the efficient operation of our systems, and the work this team does directly shapes that reliability.

• Develop and integrate camera sensor drivers — including V4L2, MIPI CSI‑2, I2C/SPI, GMSL, FPD.

What you'll need

• Minimum of 7 years of professional experience in Linux system development and embedded software engineering.
• A degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• Proficiency in kernel‑level programming and Linux driver development.
• Experience with camera sensor driver development and/or networking driver development.

Nice to have

• Experience with NVIDIA Jetson and Orin platform development and BSP customization.
• Experience with Yocto/OpenEmbedded.

Our environment

• Up to 10% of travel may be required. Employees must have a valid driver’s license and the ability to drive and/or fly to client and other customer locations.
