About the role
- Our robots navigate constrained spaces-inside trailers, across loading docks, and through active warehouse floors-carrying heavy loads with tight tolerances.
- This role is responsible for making that movement safe, precise, and reliable.
- We need someone who has shipped navigation and controls software on real robots at real customer sites.
Responsibilities
- Design, implement, and optimize path planning and trajectory generation for autonomous mobile robots operating in constrained logistics environments Develop and tune motion controllers (PID, MPC, or similar) for heavy-payload platforms with real-world dynamics Implement obstacle avoidance and safety behaviors that work reliably around people and infrastructure Own the localization stack, working with perception engineers to integrate sensor-based position estimates into the control loop Build simulation models and validate them against real robot behavior for faster development iteration Analyze and improve robot performance using field data, telemetry, and logs from deployed systems Collaborate with perception, hardware, and cloud infrastructure teams to deliver integrated autonomy features Contribute to CI/CD pipelines for controls software testing and deployment to the robot fleet
- We are a small, high-impact team based in Atlanta building products that are already deployed in production.
- The Role We are looking for a Robotics Navigation and Control Engineer to own the motion planning, path planning, and control systems on our autonomous mobile robots.
