Senior ​/ Staff Robotics Software Engineer

About the Role

A senior member of our Robotics Software Engineering Team, you will be a key technical leader responsible for the intelligent software that powers our automated manufacturing systems. Working at the intersection of robotics and biopharma, you'll collaborate with a world‑class team to solve complex challenges. This role is for a passionate, hands‑on engineer dedicated to building robust systems that have a direct impact on patient lives.

• Designing and implementing production‑ready software for our robotic platforms, spanning from low‑level hardware communication to high‑level robotic logic and system behaviors.
• Implementing and optimizing sophisticated algorithms for trajectory planning, robotic interaction, motion control, and integrating data from various sensors.
• Building and maintaining high‑fidelity simulations for validation and contributing to automated test suites (CI/CD) to ensure software robustness.
• Working closely with mechanical and system software teams to integrate and troubleshoot complex, system‑level robotics challenges.
• Mentoring other engineers and championing software best practices to elevate the entire team.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Engineering, or a related discipline.
• 5+ years of professional experience developing software for robotic or complex electromechanical systems.
• Expertise in Python and a strong command of software engineering fundamentals (e.g., version control with Git, automated testing, CI/CD).
• Deep understanding of robotics principles, including kinematics, dynamics, motion planning, and control theory.
• Experience leading cross‑functional projects and a demonstrated ability to deliver on technical roadmaps.
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and problem‑solving skills, with comfort in a fast‑paced startup environment.
• Hands‑on experience with robotics simulation environments (e.g., Isaac Sim, Gazebo, PyBullet).
• Familiarity with machine learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, Tensor Flow) and their application to robotics (e.g., computer vision, imitation learning).
• Experience working in a regulated industry (e.g., GxP, ISO standards).

• Competitive Compensation: Salary range of $160,000 – $250,000 a year plus meaningful early‑stage equity.
• Premium Health: Premium Medical, Dental, and Vision plans with subsidies for child dependents.
• 401(k) with 4% company match to help you plan for the long term.
• Pre‑tax commuter benefits for eligible transit and parking.
• Paid Parental Leave and robust support for new families.
• Flexible PTO and 12 paid holidays.
• No set hours; schedule aligned with manager and team.
• Office perks:
  Vibrant SF office culture featuring catered team lunches, stocked kitchen, frequent team events.
• H‑1B and Green Card sponsorship available for exceptional talent.
• Referral bonuses.
