Senior Robotics Engineer

We are a fast growing, venture backed and profitable robotics company that turns heavy

construction machines into autonomous, software defined machines. Our technology

already works every day on large energy and infrastructure projects across the US, and

we are now building the next generation of our autonomy platform.

You will lead the development of perception and navigation software that lets large

machines understand their surroundings and work safely on their own on busy outdoor

job sites. You will work closely with an experienced international R&D team of software,

hardware and machinery engineers, and help shape the technical direction of the

platform.

• Design and build environment perception: detecting obstacles, people, terrain and
• site features from lidar, radar, cameras and GNSS
• Build and tune navigation and autonomy on ROS 2, including Nav2, costmaps and
• planners
• Integrate and evaluate new sensors on real machines, and help choose the sensor set
• Design the robot application software that ties perception, planning and machine control together
• Test on real machines in the field and turn field results into improvements
• Work across time zones with the R&D team, and spend time with them in person
• Bring senior judgement to architecture and priority decisions

• Senior experience in robotics software (around 10 years or more)
• Strong experience building perception systems that run on real robots or vehicles
• outdoors
• Hands on ROS 2 experience, ideally including Nav2
• Experience integrating sensors and software with hardware
• Strong C++ and/or Python
• Clear, patient communication with colleagues from different countries and language
• backgrounds
• Willingness to travel to job sites and to work some evening hours for team meetings

• Autonomy for off road, construction, agricultural or mowing machines
• Radar or lidar perception on compute constrained hardware
• Automotive ADAS or heavy equipment background
• Experience working with teams in Asia

• Your work goes straight onto real machines on real job sites, not just into demos
• A profitable, growing company with strong investor backing
• A senior team that values ownership and good judgement
• Remote working with flexible hours, plus travel to the field and to the international
• R&D team
