About the role

  • We're looking for a generalist robotics engineer with strong software fundamentals, hands-on hardware integration experience, and solid systems engineering skillset.

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop and test software for unmanned maritime robotic systems
  • Develop and maintain autonomy software using frameworks such as ROS or MOOS-IvP
  • Develop and tune vehicle guidance, navigation & control algorithms
  • Develop software interfaces to devices using CAN-bus, NMEA 2000, J1939, MAVLink, etc.
  • Develop algorithms for simultaneous localization & mapping (SLAM) and multi-target tracking
  • Build tools for system diagnostics, logging, monitoring, replay, and post-mission analysis
  • Deploy to the field to support field testing and iterative product development
  • Collaborate with a larger team to design a unified hardware and software architecture

Requirements

  • 3-5+ years of professional software development or robotics engineering experience
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or similar software or engineering background.
  • Programming experience in C++, Python, Rust, or similar systems-oriented languages
  • Experience integrating hardware, sensors, and embedded devices into production systems
  • Experience with vehicle and embedded communications protocols such as CAN, NMEA 2000, J1939, MAVLink, serial, or Ethernet
  • Familiarity with robotics frameworks such as ROS, ROS 2, MOOS-IvP, ArduPilot, or similar
  • Experience using Git and modern software development workflows

Nice to have

  • Experience with maritime robotics or autonomous vehicle systems
  • Experience deploying robotic systems in field environments
  • Experience with embedded Linux, RTOS-based systems, or firmware development
  • Experience integrating navigation, perception, or mission sensors
  • Experience with simulation, automated testing, or hardware-in-the-loop testing
  • Familiarity with Docker, CI/CD, and deployment workflows
  • Ability to read electrical schematics and troubleshoot hardware systems
  • Comfortable supporting field operations and testing on a boat
