About the role
- Our robots take on the tedious, hazardous, and ergonomically demanding work that has kept manufacturing dependent on a shrinking skilled workforce, delivering superhuman performance.
- Our systems are in active production today, adapting autonomously to real geometries, real materials, and real process variation without reprogramming.
- We hire people who want to solve hard physical problems at an industrial scale.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement high-quality C++ (and some Python tooling) for ROS/ROS 2 nodes, libraries, and utilities (rcl-cpp, actions/services, components, lifecycle, launch).
- Architect scalable, testable subsystems (configuration, state machines, fault recovery, observability) using robust design patterns.
- Own components, features, or systems with end-to-end responsibility.
- Develop reusable software components for interfacing with back-end platforms.
- Partner with cross-functional teams (product, design, operations, infrastructure) to create innovative application experiences.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Robotics or equivalent practical experience.
- Proven track record of owning and delivering components, features, or systems.
- Experience with concurrency and real-time programming.
- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities.
Nice to have
- Master's or PhD in Computer Science or Robotics.
- 3+ years of hands-on experience with ROS or ROS 2 (nodes, messages, actions/services, launch, packaging).
- Strong skills in debugging and troubleshooting real robots/embedded systems (logs, tracing, sanitizers, core dumps).
- familiarity with SOLID principles and clean architecture.
- Proficiency with Linux, CMake/colcon, Git, and common CI tools (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI).
- Solid foundation in algorithms and data structures.
- Recognized as a technical mentor or thought leader.
- PLEASE NOTE: This is a Q3/Q4 2026 hire.
Compensation
- This policy applies to all terms and conditions of employment, including recruiting, hiring, placement, promotion, termination, layoff, recall, transfer, leaves of absence, compensation and training.
Benefits
- Integrate and support sensors and actuators (cameras, LiDAR, robot controllers); develop and maintain device drivers, message interfaces, health checks, and diagnostics.
