Full Job Description
đź“‹ Description
- • We're a small, venture-backed robotics company building multi-mission ground robots engineered to operate in the most demanding and hazardous environments — think emergency response, industrial operations, and defense.
- • Our platforms go where humans cannot and other robots will not: stairs, rubble, trenches, confined spaces, and extreme operating conditions.
- • We're looking for an Embedded Software Engineer to own the software that drives our electro-mechanical systems.
- • You'll have real ownership — defining what to build, how to test it, and how to deploy it across both simulated and real environments.
- • You'll work closely with hardware engineers and shape how users collect data, teleoperate our platforms, and integrate modular sensors.
- • You'll understand system requirements, push back on unnecessary scope, and translate the remaining requirements into reliable end-to-end solutions.
- • You'll partner with teammates and end users to design hyper-critical features from the ground up.
- • You'll prototype, validate, and iteratively refine features across the full stack.
- • You'll develop lightweight frontends to demonstrate and simulate feature utility.
- • You'll test features in both lab and simulated environments before real-world deployment.
- • You'll optimize software for network communications performance and reliability.
- • You'll debug complex issues surfaced during testing or field operation.
- • You'll collaborate with hardware system owners on integration and issue resolution.
- • You'll write essential documentation that clearly communicates design intent.
🎯 Requirements
- • Experience with ROS (ROS 1 and/or ROS 2) for robot software integration.
- • Proficiency in C/C++ for embedded software development on robotics platforms.
- • Hands-on experience with data collection, teleoperation, and modular sensor integration in robotic systems.
- • Experience developing and testing software in both simulated and real-world environments.
- • Strong Linux platform experience for development and deployment.
🏖️ Benefits
- • Salary: $100,000 – $150,000 USD annually, depending on experience.
- • Early-stage equity participation.
- • High-autonomy, high-impact role at a small, focused team.
