Big, hard problems are our everyday work, and our team of intelligent, humble, and driven people make the impossible possible together.
We're looking for a Software Engineer with deep experience in C++ and Python to lead the development of core systems powering our intelligent robotic platforms. In this role, you'll architect and implement high-performance software at the intersection of real-time robotics, perception, and machine learning. You'll take technical ownership of critical components, mentor team members, and help shape the future of our robotics software stack.
What You'll Do
  • Drive software architecture decisions across robotics and perception systems.
  • Design, implement, and optimize performance-critical components of the robotics and perception stack in C++ and Python.
  • Develop and integrate 3D point cloud processing algorithms for weld joint perception, including registration, pose estimation, segmentation, and geometric reasoning.
  • Lead the integration of machine learning models into real-time systems, ensuring low-latency, high-reliability performance.
  • Design and implement gRPC/Protobuf service interfaces with attention to schema versioning and backward-compatible API evolution.
  • Instrument perception systems for production observability, building telemetry pipelines that connect algorithmic metrics to business outcomes.
Who You Are
  • Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of professional experience in software engineering; title and compensation will be commensurate with experience.
  • Solid grasp of system-level software design, concurrency, memory management, and optimization.
  • Advanced proficiency in modern C++ and Python, with demonstrated experience building production services using gRPC and Protobuf.
  • Experience with robotics or perception applications, including familiarity with ROS/ROS2, motion planning, and hardware interfaces is preferred.
  • Proficient in Linux-based development; experience with Docker strongly preferred

Why You'll Love Working Here
  • Daily free lunch to keep you fueled and connected with the team
  • Flexible PTO so you can take the time you need, when you need it
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 6 weeks fully paid parental leave, plus an additional 6-8 weeks for birthing parents (12-14 weeks total)
  • 401(k) retirement plan through Empower
  • Generous employee referral bonuses-help us grow our team!
