Sponsors, but it's cap-subject — you still face the weighted lottery (~61% per draw at Level IV). Good if you win; have a cap-exempt backup on your list.

Files H-1B transfers
1 transfer filing in the last year, covering 1 worker. Median labor-condition decision: 10 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.
Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role
- As a Robotics Integration Engineer (Mid-Junior), you'll help bring autonomy to life by integrating hardware + sensors + vehicle software into a reliable, production-ready stack.
- This is a hands-on role working with Linux systems, real sensors, and real vehicles-partnering closely with senior robotics, autonomy, and platform engineers to ship systems that are stable, debuggable, and performant in industrial environments.
Responsibilities
- Integrate and validate sensors such as LiDAR, cameras, IMU/GNSS, and other vehicle hardware.
- Build and maintain the glue that makes the stack work: drivers, bring-up scripts, config management, calibration workflows, and time synchronization basics.
- Profile and optimize performance for real-time-ish workloads (high-bandwidth sensor streams, CPU/memory bottlenecks, startup stability).
- Help create and maintain integration tests and validation workflows (reproducible tests, automated checks, regression catches, log replay).
- Collaborate across perception, localization, controls, and product teams to integrate systems cleanly and ship improvements quickly.
- CI/CD experience for robotics stacks (automated builds/tests, hardware-in-the-loop or log replay workflows).
- To build this emergent technology, we are looking for innovative, motivated, and experienced leaders to join us and move this field forward.
- If you like to build, tinker, and create with a team of trusted and passionate colleagues, then Cyngn is the place for you.
- We build today and deploy tomorrow.
- We just develop them.
Requirements
- 2-4+ years in robotics integration, autonomy, embedded/systems engineering, or adjacent experience working close to hardware.
- Solid experience with Linux (Ubuntu), including building, packaging, and running systems in the field.
- Comfort with sensor + hardware bring-up (drivers, calibration workflows, time sync concepts, logs, reproducible setup).
- C++ (systems/performance-critical code)
- Python (tooling, automation, integration glue)
- Shell scripting (Linux workflows, debugging, automation)
- Understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/UDP, bandwidth/latency tradeoffs, basic multicast, and debugging with common tools).
- Clear communicator with good documentation habits and a low-ego, team-first approach.
Nice to have
- Experience with ROS 2 (nodes, launch, TF2, bags, QoS) or other robotics middleware frameworks.
- Experience with CAN tooling (SocketCAN, DBC workflows) and/or ECU/firmware update flows.
- Experience with containerized deployments (e.g., Docker) or production deployment patterns on vehicles.
- Familiarity with profiling tools (perf, top/htop, valgrind, gdb) and performance tuning.
- Exposure to OTA / device management systems (e.g., AWS Greengrass) or fleet rollout practices.
- Understanding of safety-oriented development practices (fault handling, watchdogs, redundancy concepts).
- Experience with simulation environments (e.g., NVIDIA Isaac Sim, Gazebo, or similar) for integration and regression testing.
Compensation
- $153k-$171k
Benefits
- This means our employees not only work in close-knit teams with mentorship from company leaders-they also get access to the liquidity of our publicly-traded equity.
- Own mission-critical system pieces: state management, health monitoring, diagnostics, logging, and fleet-ready tooling.
