• Develop and implement algorithms supporting advanced operator assistance, robotics, computer vision, and safety-critical automation applications.
• Integrate software with cameras, LiDAR, sensors, embedded controllers, and robotic hardware platforms.
• Create and maintain technical documentation including software designs, system architecture, validation plans, test procedures, and technical recommendations.
• Develop hardware and software validation plans, analyze test results, and recommend improvements to system performance and reliability.
• Mentor fellow engineers by sharing technical knowledge and promoting continuous learning across the team.
• Research emerging technologies and evaluate new software tools, frameworks, and automation solutions for future product development.

What We're Looking For:

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• 2+ year of professional experience developing software applications in C++, Python, C#, or other object-oriented programming languages.
• Working knowledge of modern software development practices including source control using Git.
• Proficiency in Linux-based development environments.
• Hands-on experience with hardware interfaces including cameras, LiDAR, embedded controllers, robotic platforms, or similar systems.
• Understanding of localization systems, navigation, and autonomous path-planning algorithms.
• Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and software debugging skills with the ability to solve complex technical challenges.
• Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills.
• Ability to collaborate effectively across multidisciplinary engineering teams while managing multiple priorities.

What Sets You Apart:

• Background in robotics, autonomous systems, computer vision, or industrial automation software development.
• Experience developing applications using ROS2, DDS, or other robotic middleware frameworks.
• Knowledge of machine learning, AI, or perception algorithms supporting autonomous systems.
• Familiarity with embedded software development, real-time operating systems (RTOS), or embedded Linux.
• Experience integrating cameras, LiDAR, radar, IMUs, GPS, or other sensor technologies.
• Understanding of software architecture, multithreaded programming, distributed systems, or real-time software design.
• Exposure to safety-critical software development, functional safety, or automotive development processes.
• Experience with software validation, automated testing, continuous integration (CI/CD), or DevOps practices.
• Previous experience in robotics, autonomous vehicles, industrial automation, automotive, or material handling industries.
• Passion for innovation, continuous learning, and developing next-generation intelligent automation technologies.
