About the role

  • We're training robot AGI to power a proprietary generalist supply chain superhumanoid, the first robot in the world capable of performing thousands of tasks across the supply chain.
  • Link: Nimble Closes $106 Million Series C Funding Round, Scales Fully Autonomous Fulfillment with FedEx Link: FedEx Announces Expansion of FedEx Fulfillment With Nimble Alliance Why Join Nimble?
  • Nimble's Core Values: Be relentlessly resourceful - Challenge conventions and overcome obstacles.

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and maintain the diagnostic framework in robotics software stack, enabling both autonomous and on-demand manual diagnostic scans.
  • Ensure the scalability of the data schema, and optimize it for use by both on-robot systems and cloud-based analytics tools.
  • Work closely with hardware and integration teams to develop diagnostic tests that surface robot hardware issues, abnormal sensor behavior (e.g., drift, noise, and communication failures), battery, power or motor anomalies, and transient firmware glitches.
  • Collaborate with the Infrastructure team and build the data pipeline responsible for reliably collecting, storing and processing high volumes of diagnostic data from the robot fleet.
  • Nimble is an AI robotics company building the autonomous supply chain to power fast, efficient and economical commerce.
  • We will accomplish this by training robot AGI to invent and build the Autonomous Supply Chain - everything from the inside of factories and warehouses to your front door - powered by generalist superhumanoids.

Requirements

  • Proficiency in software development (e.g., Rust, C++) with specific experience in writing testable, robust code for embedded environments or robotics middleware.
  • Experience with data structuring, schema design, and working with data ingestion pipelines (e.g., utilizing message queues, time-series databases, or cloud data storage).
  • Familiarity with interpreting hardware schematics and leveraging low-level system logs to identify failure points.
  • BS or MS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related technical discipline.
  • 3+ years of professional experience in developing diagnostics, monitoring, or telemetry systems for complex electro-mechanical devices, robotics, or embedded systems.
  • Deep understanding of common robotics hardware and firmware failure modes, including motor control systems, sensor interfaces (e.g., CAN, I2C, Serial, USB), and power management systems. Technical triaging skills, familiarity with Ishikawa diagram are big plus.
  • Additional Details
  • The pay range for this position at the start of employment is expected to be between $145,000 and $200,000/year. Your exact offer may vary depending on multiple individualized factors, including job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
