About the role
Responsibilities
Design, implement, and maintain robust, scalable software systems for production automation
Build core libraries and services supporting motion planning, control, and perception pipelines
Architect clean interfaces between software components and hardware-facing systems
Develop vision and sensor-integration software that feeds downstream planning and control stacks
Optimize software for performance, reliability, and deterministic behavior where required
Write high-quality, testable Python code with strong emphasis on readability, correctness, and maintainability
Own software engineering best practices: code reviews, testing strategies, CI/CD, and release processes
Build simulation, testing, and tooling infrastructure to validate behavior prior to deployment
Collaborate with robotics, controls, and hardware engineers to translate system requirements into well-defined software abstractions
Contribute to architectural decisions as the software platform scales across customers and deployments
Minimum Qualifications
B.S. in Computer Science or a related engineering field
