What you need

  • B.S., M.S., or Ph.D. in Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field
  • 3-9 years of experience
  • Hands-on experience with middleware (ROS/ROS2) and computing languages (python, C++)
  • Strong generalist robotics software background spanning controls, navigation, and systems integration across legged and wheeled platforms
  • Comfort working across the sim-to-real gap, validating RL or autonomy policies from simulation (Isaac, Gazebo, MuJoCo) on physical hardware
  • Working familiarity with motors, actuation, BLDC motor controllers, and power distribution or electrical systems

Nice to have

  • Experience integrating software across multiple robot platforms, including legged/quadruped, humanoid, and wheeled UGVs (e.g., Unitree, Boston Dynamics, Clearpath)
  • Experience deploying robots in harsh, diverse industrial field environments such as construction, mining, and oil & gas
  • Background in functional safety standards (ISO 26262, ASIL, SOTIF/ISO 21448) and safety-critical systems testing and validation
  • Experience with whole-body control, impedance/admittance control, MPC, or trajectory optimization for legged or manipulator systems
  • Experience with multi-robot fleet operations, auto-docking/charging infrastructure, or teleoperation systems

Worth weighing

  • No salary listed
  • Role involves working in potentially harsh field environments
  • Experience level required is relatively broad (3-9 years) which may attract a wide range of candidates
  • Focus on safety systems and functional safety standards may indicate a rigorous testing and validation environment
