Robotics Tester information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Robotics Tester, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Robotics Tester, you need a solid background in robotics engineering, programming (such as Python or C++), and experience with automated testing methodologies, often supported by a relevant engineering degree. Familiarity with hardware-software integration tools, test automation frameworks, and simulation environments like ROS (Robot Operating System) is typically required. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication are crucial soft skills in this role. These skills and qualifications ensure that robotic systems are thoroughly validated, reliable, and safe for deployment in real-world applications.

What are some common challenges faced by Robotics Testers when validating new robotic systems?

Robotics Testers often encounter challenges such as troubleshooting complex hardware-software interactions, replicating intermittent bugs, and ensuring safety compliance during testing. Since robotic systems integrate sensors, actuators, and AI algorithms, testers must develop robust test plans to simulate real-world scenarios and edge cases. Collaboration with engineers and developers is crucial to quickly identify root causes and refine system performance, making strong communication and problem-solving skills essential in this role.

What are Robotics Testers?

Robotics Testers are professionals who evaluate and ensure the functionality, reliability, and safety of robotic systems before they are deployed for use. They design and execute tests to identify bugs, performance issues, and potential hazards in both hardware and software components of robots. Robotics Testers work closely with engineers and developers to troubleshoot problems and verify that robots meet required standards and specifications. Their role is crucial in making sure that robots operate as intended in real-world environments.

What is the difference between Robotics Tester vs Robotics Engineer?

AspectRobotics TesterRobotics Engineer
CredentialsTypically requires a degree in robotics, mechanical, electrical engineering, or computer science; certifications in testing or automation are a plusRequires a degree in robotics, mechanical, electrical engineering, or computer science; often holds advanced certifications or specializations
Work EnvironmentPrimarily in labs or testing facilities, focusing on testing robotic systems and softwareDesigning, developing, and implementing robotic systems, often in R&D or manufacturing settings
Employer & Industry UsageUsed by testing labs, manufacturing companies, and R&D departments to ensure robotic systems meet quality standardsEmployed by tech companies, manufacturing firms, and research institutions to create and improve robotic solutions

Robotics Testers focus on evaluating robotic systems for quality and functionality, while Robotics Engineers are involved in designing and developing these systems. Both roles require technical skills and knowledge of robotics, but their responsibilities differ significantly.

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
Join the Autonomy team as a Senior Software Engineer where you will architect and contribute to the core robot software platform by driving the development of critical software modules and their interfaces. You will establish a data-driven approach to system performance by building scalable telemetry and metrics infrastructure, alongside rigorous regression testing plans, to track KPIs and monitor long-term reliability. This high-impact role is essential for enabling the next phase of commercial scaling by ensuring the robot can reliably perceive, plan, and execute complex tasks within dynamic environments.
About The Work
  • Drive the implementation of selected middleware solutions to optimize communication and scalability across the core software platform.
  • Define, document, review, and enforce process boundaries and API contracts, driving organization-wide alignment.
  • Collaborate closely across the robot software and architecture teams to solve complex, cross-functional problems and ensure robust performance on physical robot hardware.
  • Own and maintain the large-scale regression pipelines to automatically measure critical autonomous behavior metrics and track key performance indicators (KPIs) across motion planning, navigation, and localization.

About You
  • Demonstrated expertise in designing and implementing multi-process robot architectures and distributed systems. Proficiency with different robotics middleware solutions (e.g., ROS, DDS, custom messaging) and experience with inter-process/inter-machine communication.
  • Strong experience developing and maintaining telemetry/metrics pipelines (e.g., using OpenTelemetry/Otel). Proficiency in querying and analyzing large datasets using SQL-like big data tools (e.g., Amazon Athena, Spark SQL) and time-series databases (e.g., Prometheus, InfluxDB).
  • Demonstrated expertise in simulation at scale, including techniques like domain randomization and procedural content generation. Hands-on experience transitioning models/behaviors from simulation (e.g., Gazebo, MuJoCo, Isaac Sim) to real-world physical robot hardware.
  • Proficiency in programming languages commonly used in robotics/testing (Python, C++).
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Git, Jenkins, GitHub Actions) and containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) for scaling simulation and deployment environments.
  • Deep understanding of robotics fundamentals, including kinematics, dynamics, controls, and perception.
  • MS or Ph.D. in Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent industry experience.

Bonus Qualifications
  • Familiarity with cloud storage solutions and data lakes (e.g., AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage).
  • Hands-on experience creating impactful data visualizations and dashboards using tools like Datadog, Grafana, or Apache Superset.
  • Experience training or deploying Reinforcement Learning (RL) agents for complex autonomous behaviors.
  • Publications in top-tier robotics or related conferences (RSS, ICRA, IROS).
