Control Systems Software Engineer Robotics

Skills

About the Role

You will design real-time robotic control algorithms and architecture, characterize hardware and software parameters through testing, integrate sensing and actuation systems, work with machine learning engineers on reinforcement learning, and improve whole-robot performance onsite.

Requirements

• Robotics experience with manipulators, mobile robots, or complex physical systems
• Experience with actuation, control systems, robot dynamics, estimation, subsystem tuning, or whole-body motion
• Hands-on robotic hardware experience, including commissioning, debugging, testing, and iteration
• Knowledge of classical control, system dynamics, and estimation
• Exposure to learning-based or reinforcement learning approaches
• Ability to work from low-level hardware interfaces to higher-level algorithms
• Experience writing production-quality software in C++ or Rust
• Experience with robotic hardware and simulation-to-real-world testing

Responsibilities

• Design and implement real-time control algorithms for robotic systems
• Define control architecture from actuators and hardware interfaces through whole-robot behavior
• Characterize actuator, hardware, and software parameters through experimentation, testing, commissioning, and verification
• Work with machine learning engineers to implement reinforcement learning models
• Integrate control logic with sensing and actuation hardware
• Inform mechanical and electrical design
• Create control system architecture across the robot stack
