Careers

Software and Controls Engineer

We are seeking candidates who are passionate about robotics, software, and controls. We are looking for individuals of different skill levels with different backgrounds, who are capable of functioning both in a tight-knit team and independently for extended periods of time. Robotics is a difficult field and we are looking for engineers who are okay not knowing the answers before they start. (If you do know the answers please apply, we could really use those)

The ideal candidate will have been involved in the development of articulated robots in the past. If you don't have a lot of robotics experience, but have a good portfolio, or are willing to jump in the deep end, we still encourage you to apply.  Applicants must have good communication and documentation skills, and thrive in both a team and individual environment.

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in an engineering major, with a software and controls focus
  • 2+ years of relevant experience
  • Strong proficiency and proof of prior work in C, C++, Java, or similar language
  • Knowledge of Linux-based robotics systems
  • Experience writing software for hardware platforms
  • Good communication and documentation skills

Preferred Qualifications (Not required, but would fit really well with our workflow):

  • M.S. or PhD in an engineering major, with a software and controls focus
  • Familiarity with version control systems such as Git
  • Experience working with continuous integration tools
  • Experience writing software using the Test Driven Development practice
