JOB-1734
A venture-backed robotics company at Series A that deploys AI-powered robots in real production facilities is looking for a senior software engineer to join its R&D group. The role suits a very strong programmer who likes tackling problems across the whole stack, from low-level firmware up to cloud services, and who is more excited by the physical world than by pure software.
What you’ll own
- Orchestrate live robot control software, planning optimizers for motion, and ML pipelines on multiple hardware platforms
- Develop and maintain labeling tools for data, perception modules and compilers tuned for robot intelligence
- Work wherever needed in the stack, spanning embedded firmware through cloud services
- Design systems with teammates in a low-ego culture and get them into service
- Deploy directly at customer sites so the software proves itself in actual operation
What you bring
- Five to ten years of software engineering for robotics, automation or embedded systems, with strong Python
- Software built for physical robots such as arms, manipulation or other autonomous hardware
- Experience leading a robotics software system from start through deployment as a hands-on technical lead rather than a people manager
- A bachelor’s degree or higher in computer science, robotics or a related field
- Solid fundamentals across languages; TypeScript and React are useful
- Helpful extras: ROS, motion planning, perception, Docker and Kubernetes
- Comfort with a scope that shifts as company priorities change
On-site in the Boston area. Visa transfers are considered.
