Job description

Are you a forward-thinking engineer, read to step into a Senior Robotics Software Engineer role with our premier client? In this position, you will shape and evolve the foundational software architectures that drive safe, dependable, and intelligent behavior across our robotic systems. You will play a central role in designing and building the underlying software platform that supports advanced functions such as kinematics, perception, sensor fusion, and control. Your work will directly enable responsive, capable robotic systems that operate alongside patients and support clinicians in real-world medical environments. This is a high-impact opportunity to work at the intersection of robotics and healthcare. And you'll be at the forefront of all of it! 

What You’ll Do - Robotics of Course! 

  • Own the technical direction and execution of the end-to-end robotics software stack, including planning, state estimation, sensor fusion, manipulation, whole-body control, and safety systems.
  • Develop clean, well-structured, and well-documented code that can be easily understood, extended, and maintained by others.
  • Integrate perception, planning, and control pipelines to ensure reliable robot behavior in complex, partially structured environments.
  • Design and evolve software frameworks that emphasize modularity, scalability, and reuse across multiple robot platforms and hardware configurations.
  • Partner closely with hardware, systems, product, and applications teams to define system capabilities, performance targets, and delivery milestones.
  • Set a high bar for quality, robustness, and real-time performance, especially in safety-critical contexts. Establish technical standards and development practices that balance rapid progress with long-term sustainability.
  • Contribute to and help cultivate a collaborative, high-performing engineering culture.
  • Track advances in robotics, autonomy, controls, and AI, and proactively assess opportunities to introduce new technologies where they add clear value.
  • Coach and mentor other robotics software engineers, supporting both their technical growth and career development.

About You

  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a closely related field.

  • 5+ years of experience delivering production-grade robotics / automation software, ideally with real-world deployments, or equivalent experience through advanced academic work.

  • Strong depth in one or more areas such as whole-body or model-predictive control, perception and sensor fusion, motion planning, manipulation, or collision modeling.

  • Advanced proficiency in C++ and Python, with hands-on experience building and deploying complex robotic systems using ROS2.

  • Demonstrated success working across disciplines to deliver tightly integrated hardware-software systems.

  • Clear communicator with the ability to collaborate effectively and present technical concepts to senior stakeholders.

  • Deep motivation to build technology that has meaningful, real-world impact.

  • Brings energy, ownership, focus, and intrinsic drive to demanding engineering challenges.

  • Authorized to work in the United States on an indefinite basis.
