What is the difference between Hourly Robot vs Hourly Technician?

AspectHourly RobotHourly Technician
CredentialsMinimal; primarily programming and basic maintenance skillsRelevant certifications or technical training required
Work EnvironmentFactories, manufacturing plants, automation settingsFactories, maintenance facilities, industrial environments
Industry UsageAutomation, robotics, manufacturingManufacturing, industrial maintenance, repair services
Search & Comparison IntentUnderstanding automation roles, robotic maintenanceTechnical repair, maintenance, troubleshooting

Hourly Robots are automated systems used in manufacturing, requiring programming and basic upkeep. Hourly Technicians are human workers performing maintenance and repairs in industrial settings. While both roles support manufacturing processes, one is automated, and the other involves hands-on technical work.

Staff Robotics Software Engineer, Robot Behaviors

Agility Robotics

Salem, OR • On-site, Remote

$190K - $296K/yr

Full-time

Medical, Dental, Vision, Retirement, PTO

Re-posted 8 days ago


Job description

Agility's commercially deployed humanoids operate alongside teams in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers-tackling physically demanding and repetitive tasks while enabling workers to focus on higher-value work. With industry-leading safety standards and years of proven deployment data, we're pioneering a new era of automation that enhances human potential.
About the Role
We are looking for a Staff Robotics Software Engineer (Tech Lead) to lead the design and development of robot behaviors that expand and generalize our humanoid robot's capabilities. In this role, you will own behavior design end-to-end, from high-level task logic and system design down to on-robot validation and deployment. You will work at the intersection of behavior planning, motion planning, object perception, and manipulation, developing new autonomy capabilities and pushing the robot into new classes of tasks. We are looking for a hands-on technical leader who can set technical direction and wants to stay close to the robot: writing code, running experiments, debugging logs, working with hardware, and mentoring other engineers by building alongside them.
Key Responsibilities
  • Own the design, implementation, and validation of complex humanoid robot behaviors.
  • Lead behavior planning and execution design, including task decomposition, control flow, recovery, and failure handling.
  • Build new autonomy capabilities that expand what the robot can reliably do in the real world.
  • Develop and evaluate manipulation strategies for new tasks, objects, workflows, and customer environments.
  • Integrate robot behaviors with motion planning, controls, object perception, estimation, and hardware systems.
  • Train, evaluate, and integrate learned policies into hybrid learned/classical execution workflows.
  • Integrate new end effectors, tools, sensors, and other hardware capabilities into the behavior stack.
  • Debug complex system-level failures using logs, replay, metrics, simulation, and on-robot experimentation.
  • Mentor engineers through design reviews, code reviews, debugging, and hands-on technical guidance.
  • Help set technical direction and best practices for building robust, composable, reusable, and generalizable robot behaviors.

About You
  • B.S., M.S., or Ph.D. in Robotics, Computer Science, or a related engineering field.
  • 8+ years of professional experience developing robotics software, autonomy systems, robot behaviors, or related real-world robotic capabilities.
  • Demonstrated experience as a tech lead or senior technical owner for complex robotics projects.
  • Proficient in Python and C++, and comfortable contributing to large, long-lived codebases.
  • Experience with behavior trees, state machines, task planners, hierarchical planning, or similar behavior-planning frameworks.
  • Strong system-level understanding of how motion planning, object perception, controls, estimation, and hardware interact on real robots.
  • Experience working with complex algorithms and data pipelines, with an ability to optimize for performance, robustness, and scalability.
  • Experience collaborating closely with perception, planning, controls, hardware, product, or field teams.
  • Strong ownership mindset with a focus on robustness, generalization, and real-world reliability.

Bonus Qualifications
  • Experience developing manipulation strategies for complex or unstructured environments.
  • Experience with learned robot skills, including imitation learning, reinforcement learning, or hybrid learned/classical execution strategies.
  • Experience deploying and supporting autonomous robots in real customer environments.

This is a hybrid role based out of one of our Salem, OR, Pittsburgh, PA, or Fremont, CA offices.
The final salary offered to a successful candidate will be dependent on several factors that may include but are not limited to: market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. This range may change based on geographical location and may be modified in the future.
Anticipated Salary Range
$190,000-$296,000 USD
In addition to base pay, our competitive total rewards package consists of the following for full-time employees:
  • 401(k) Plan: Includes a 6% company match.
  • Equity: Company stock options.
  • Insurance Coverage: 100% company-paid medical, dental, vision, and short/long-term disability insurance for employees.
  • Benefit Start Date: Eligible for benefits on your first day of employment.
  • Well-Being Support: Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
  • Time Off:
    • Exempt Employees: Flexible, unlimited PTO and 12 company holidays, including a winter shutdown.
    • Non-Exempt Employees: 10 vacation days, paid sick leave, and 12 company holidays, including a winter shutdown, annually.
  • On-Site Perks: Catered lunches four times a week and a variety of healthy snacks and refreshments at our Salem and Pittsburgh locations.
  • Parental Leave: Generous paid parental leave programs.
  • Work Environment: A culture that supports flexible work arrangements.
  • Growth Opportunities: Professional development and tuition reimbursement programs.
  • Relocation Assistance: Provided for eligible roles.
  • Annual Discretionary Bonus: Provided for eligible roles.
