Job description

About Charge Robotics:
Charge Robotics is a Series A startup building robots that build solar farms.
Demand for new solar projects is booming (1 โ„ 5 of all the solar that exists in the US was installed last year!), but today's construction companies can't keep up due to limited labor resources.
We thought this was insane, so we started working on robots to directly address this bottleneck and speed up the world's transition to renewables.
Charge is a fast-moving company, which means constant opportunities for learning and growth. You'll have a large impact on the direction of our company, and will be compensated accordingly.
We're MIT-founded and backed by top generalist and climate tech investors, including Founders Fund, Energy Impact Partners, Lux Capital and Y Combinator (S21).
If you're excited to work on interesting problems with direct climate impact, you're going to fit right in! Read more about Charge at the links below:
  • Fast Company - Solar Building Robots to Solve One of Climate's Biggest Problems
  • MIT News - Making solar projects cheaper and faster with portable factories
  • YouTube - full video of our Gen1 robots building a solar farm

About this role:
As a Senior Robotics Software Engineer at Charge Robotics, you'll be working full-stack and playing a direct role in deploying gigawatts of clean power generation.
What you'll be working on:
  • Architecting, building, documenting, testing, and iterating on software for our robotic factory installation system
  • Building new features for our customer-facing web platform, Sunrise Studio
  • Contributing to low-level software powering robotic systems in our factories and delivery vehicles, with emphasis on correctness and safety
  • Controlling industrial automation hardware including linear actuators, motors, and hydraulic systems

You:
  • Are an experienced Python and web developer who is also familiar with at least one lower-level language like C++
  • Know how to instrument and develop highly performant software as a member of a team, including writing clean code, documenting it, testing it, and using version control and CI
  • Have worked in a fast-paced startup environment before, and loved it
  • Are excited to work with (and occasionally safely climb into) giant robots
  • Have excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Are based in or can relocate to the SF Bay Area, and able to work 4-5 days/week from our San Leandro HQ
  • Are open to ~10% travel to field (solar construction sites) to work directly with our product in its deployment environment
  • Are excited to see your work deployed onto actual solar farms!

It'd also be nice if you:
  • Have experience working with industrial robot arms, motion planning, or automation systems
  • Have a 4-year degree in computer science, robotics, or a related field
  • Gain satisfaction from personally playing a part in mitigating climate change

Charge Robotics is an equal opportunity employer, and we value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
