We’re looking for an experienced roboticist to work with our team in maintaining, improving, and battle‑readying our end‑to‑end robotic workforce solution.

• Proven experience leading software teams and delivering production systems for real hardware.
• Strong C++ and Python skills.
• Familiarity with Docker deployment.
• Experience with real‑time or near‑real‑time control systems and hardware–software integration.
• Strong understanding of modern software practices including Git, code review, automated testing, CI/CD pipelines (Git Hub Actions, Git Lab CI, Jenkins, etc.).
• Experience managing sensor data pipelines (stereo/RGB cameras, Lidar, IMUs, force/torque).
• Experience with ROS/ROS 2.
• Linux proficiency.

• Proficiency in profiling and optimizing C++/Python code for systems with limited compute and memory resources.
• Experience with simulation environments (Gazebo, Isaac Sim, etc.).
• Experience building low‑latency networking and communication systems for teleoperation.
