Core Responsibilities:

• Design, implement and maintain software modules for autonomous robot operation using the ROS2 framework.

• Design, implement and maintain firmware logic and architecture. 

• Develop code for embedded software components.

• Build and maintain data pipelines for the training and evaluation of AI models.

• Develop and integrate AI/ML models into the robot software stack.

• Research and evaluate other state-of-the-art AI techniques relevant to robotics, and Computer Vision.

• Evaluate and integrate third party open source libraries, SDKs and/or APIs where beneficial.

• Design and execute testing strategies including unit, integration and HIL tests to validate software correctness and system performance.

• Diagnose and resolve software and firmware issues across the stack.

• Develop and maintain tools for build systems, testing, logging and remote diagnostics.

• Involve and drive Continuous Integration and deployment (CI/CD) infrastructure and environment setup.

You may also be involved in:

• Hands-on assembly, wiring and soldering of electronic subsystems as part of prototype bring-up and iteration

• Occasional on-site deployment and testing at live operational environments (e.g. construction sites), requiring adaptability and safety-consciousness.

Technical Requirements:

• Proficiency in C++17 or later for performance-critical systems.

• Proficiency in Python for scripting, tooling, ML pipelines.

• Experience with bare-metal embedded development in C.

• Familiarity with robotics simulation environments like Gazebo for development and validation.

• Familiarity with deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow.

• Familiarity with and computer vision libraries (e.g. OpenCV, Ultralytics).

Nice to Haves:

• Experience with version control (Git) and collaborative development workflows

• Experience in configuring sensors over I2C, CSI and CAN.

• Familiarity with cross-compilation build systems for embedded systems (arm-none-eabi).

• Familiarity with software design principles and CI/CD pipelines (eg Github Actions)

• Experience with electronics is a plus.

Values/Culture:

• Excited to work in a fast-moving startup environment where your work directly shapes the product and puts you close to real-world operations and clients

• Comfortable with ambiguity and able to self-direct in an environment where priorities evolve rapidly

• Strong first-principles thinking, comfortable defining success metrics and making reasoned decisions with limited data

• Self-motivated and impact driven, with a track record of going beyond the minimum through personal projects, open-source contributions or extracurricular technical work

• Excited about robotics and similar technical areas and exploring them in work and other projects

• Approach unfamiliar problems with curiosity and a growth mindset. Eager to learn across domains including hardware, software and operations

Our work is fast-moving and iterative, and your role will grow with it. We value people who can take initiative, connect their day-to-day work to the bigger picture, and adapt as our priorities evolve.
