About the role

  • We're focused on an ambitious goal to make generalized robots broadly accessible, enabling households to take back quality time.
  • If you are ready to apply your skills to the forefront of robotics innovation, we'd love to hear from you.

Responsibilities

  • Own the embedded software stack (bootloader, kernel, devicetree, BSP, and drivers) for compute platforms based on SoCs like NVIDIA Jetson, Qualcomm etc
  • Develop and maintain Linux kernel drivers and userspace integration for sensors, GMSL cameras, displays, storage, and high-speed interconnects (PCIe, USB, MIPI CSI/DSI, Ethernet, CAN)
  • Own build system and BSP layers using Yocto/Buildroot or vendor SDKs like JetPack
  • Design and implement OTA end-to-end using RAUC, Mender, SWUpdate, or equivalent
  • Experience developing CI pipelines for embedded Linux images

Requirements

  • Knowledge of power management, secure boot, watchdogs, and other production-readiness concerns
  • Strong proficiency in C and ideally C++ and/or Rust
  • Strong experience with Yocto, Buildroot, or an equivalent embedded Linux build system, including custom layers/recipes and production image customization

Nice to have

  • Delivered at least one project from prototype phase into production
  • Experience with PREEMPT_RT
  • Familiarity with RTOS-based firmware development
  • Experience with Python for scripting, data analysis, or test automation
  • Even if you don't meet every single requirement, we encourage you to apply.
  • Studies show that women and underrepresented groups often hold back unless they meet 100% of the criteria - we don't want that to be the reason we miss out on great talent.

Skills

  • What to Expect

Benefits

  • Work closely with the software and machine-learning teams to optimize performance across the entire software stack
