Robotics, Embedded Software Engineer
Amazon Industrial Robotics is seeking exceptional talent to help develop the next generation of advanced robotics systems that will transform automation at Amazon's scale. We're building revolutionary robotic systems that combine cutting‑edge AI, sophisticated control systems, and advanced mechanical design to create adaptable automation solutions capable of working safely alongside humans in dynamic environments. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of robotics and automation at unprecedented scale, working with world‑class teams pushing the boundaries of what's possible in robotic manipulation, locomotion, and human‑robot interaction.
If you're passionate about safety and performance and have an interest in robotics systems, we'd like to talk to you about becoming part of an organization with global impact on millions of customers.
Key Job Responsibilities- Learn and master multiple components including networking/Wi‑Fi, safety systems, and a variety of sensors.
- Lead the architecture of these complex systems and break down problems to support junior coworkers in contributing effectively. Explain our progress and present simplified explanations of technical issues to project managers and other non‑technical leaders.
- Work on the edge of the technological frontier, develop novel solutions, and take measured risks when necessary.
As an Embedded Software Engineer, you will work with cross‑functional teams to develop, test, and debug complex modern robotic systems. The development process will involve participating in design discussions, brainstorming novel approaches to the hardest problems in robotics, and implementing new product concepts and features. Testing efforts will involve writing automated tests to validate newly created features or conducting live testing to debug and root‑cause issues.
