Software Engineer, Robotics Systems

Company Description

Autonomique is at the forefront of innovation in Physical AI, addressing key challenges in autonomy such as perception, reasoning, and dexterity. Our robotics intelligence framework delivers reliable, autonomous solutions for industries with complex operational demands. With advanced bi-manual robots, we are enabling groundbreaking advancements in manufacturing by empowering robots to perform critical real-world tasks. We are driven by the mission to make autonomous systems practical and impactful today.

This is a high-impact, high-ownership role for a builder who wants to improve the software foundation behind our robots. You will work directly with the founding team to strengthen the systems that power teleoperation, data collection, training, deployment, and internal infrastructure. We are looking for someone who values equity participation and wants to capture the upside of the value they create.

You won  just be an employee; you will be a key architect of our success. Strong systems roles in robotics and simulation are common across the space, and companies building teleoperation, simulation, and data infrastructure emphasize production-ready code, low-latency systems, and cross-functional collaboration.

• Build Data Infrastructure: Design and maintain the pipelines that collect, store, organize, and version robot data from teleop, sensors, and deployments.
• Support AI Training: Help turn raw robot data into clean, usable datasets for model training and evaluation.
• Strengthen Core Robotics Software: Contribute to the software infrastructure that underpins robot behavior, debugging, testing, and deployment.
• Ship Efficient Code: Write high-performance C, C++, or Rust code for systems where latency, reliability, and efficiency matter.
• Work Across the Stack: Collaborate with robotics, ML, and hardware engineers to make the full development loop faster and more reliable.
• Improve Simulation Workflows: Help connect simulation environments to real robot workflows for testing, iteration, and validation.

• Education: BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• Experience: 3+ years building software for robotics, embedded systems, simulation, or other performance-critical environments.
• Systems Programming: Expert-level programming in C, C++, or Rust, with strong Python skills.
• Robotics Exposure: Experience with robots, teleoperation, or robotics middleware is strongly preferred.
• Simulation
  
  Experience:
  
  Familiarity with at least one simulation environment such as Mu Jo Co , Isaac Sim, Gazebo, or similar.
• Engineering Excellence: Strong debugging, profiling, and software design skills, with a track record of shipping reliable systems.
• Startup Mindset: Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment where priorities evolve and ownership is high.

• Experience with ROS or ROS
  2.
• Familiarity with data pipelines, storage systems, or experiment tracking.
• Experience with real-time systems, networking, or distributed systems.
• Exposure to ML training workflows, dataset management, or robot learning.
• Open source contributions or a portfolio of systems-level work.

• Ownership: We offer a substantial equity package designed for those who believe in our mission and want to be rewarded for the company's long-term success.
• Impact: Work directly on real-world projects and see your code deployed in the real world immediately. We are already shipping robots in production.
• Culture: A collaborative, high-velocity supportive environment conducive to both personal and professional growth.
