Role Description We are seeking an experienced Robotics Software Engineer to design, build, and integrate software systems that power autonomous robots and robotic platforms. In this role you will work across the full robotics software stack, from low-level sensor integration and motion planning to high-level perception and behavioral systems. The ideal candidate will combine strong software engineering fundamentals with deep working knowledge of robotics frameworks, real-time systems, and sensor fusion. - Work closely with cross-functional partners — product, design, engineering, operations, and business stakeholders — to translate ambiguous requirements into well-engineered solutions. - Raise the bar through code review, design review, and mentorship of more junior engineers. - Bring strong engineering discipline, a clear communication style, and a track record of shipping meaningful work that holds up well in production. Qualifications - Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. - Five or more years of robotics software engineering experience. - Strong programming skills in C++ and Python. - Hands-on experience with ROS or ROS 2 in production projects. - Solid experience with at least one of perception, localization, motion planning, or control. - Familiarity with sensor fusion and Kalman/particle filter techniques. - Experience with simulation environments (Gazebo, Isaac Sim, MuJoCo). - Strong debugging skills in real-time and concurrent systems. - Excellent communication and documentation skills. - Experience supporting field tests and hardware integration. Requirements - Develop robotics software in C++ and Python, with strong attention to real-time performance and reliability. - Design and integrate sensor data pipelines including cameras, LiDAR, IMUs, and proprioceptive sensors. - Implement perception, localization, and mapping algorithms including SLAM and sensor fusion. - Develop motion planning, control, and trajectory generation algorithms. - Build behavioral systems using state machines, behavior trees, or task planners. - Integrate ROS / ROS 2 frameworks with custom hardware and embedded systems. - Implement safety-critical patterns including watchdogs, fault detection, and safe stops. - Build simulation environments (Gazebo, Isaac Sim) for development and testing. - Collaborate closely with mechanical, electrical, and ML engineers. - Design and execute field tests, including data collection and post-test analysis. - Maintain comprehensive, current technical documentation. - Mentor and coach junior and mid-level engineers. - Continuously evaluate emerging robotics technologies and frameworks. Benefits - Competitive base salary commensurate with experience, plus benefits. - Long-term, multi-year engagement aligned to the Bright Vision SOW delivery roadmap.
