What is a ROS developer?

A ROS (Robot Operating System) Developer is responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining robotic applications using the ROS framework. They work on tasks such as writing code for robot perception, motion planning, and control, often integrating sensors and actuators. ROS Developers typically use languages like C++ and Python and work with tools such as Gazebo and RViz. Their role is critical in industries like automation, robotics research, and autonomous vehicles.

What are the typical daily responsibilities of a ROS developer?

As a ROS Developer, your daily tasks often include designing and implementing robotics algorithms, developing, testing, and debugging software built on the ROS platform, and integrating sensors or actuators with robotic systems. You may collaborate closely with hardware engineers and other developers to ensure smooth system functionality, as well as participate in regular code reviews and team meetings. Documentation of your code and ongoing troubleshooting are also key responsibilities, helping maintain reliability and scalability. This role offers a dynamic environment where your contributions can directly impact the advancement of cutting-edge robotics solutions.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a ROS developer?

To thrive as a ROS Developer, you need a deep understanding of robotics, software engineering, and proficiency in programming languages such as C++ and Python, often supported by a degree in computer science, robotics, or a related field. Familiarity with the Robot Operating System (ROS), Linux-based development environments, and version control systems like Git is essential, with ROS certifications considered a plus. Strong problem-solving abilities, teamwork, and effective communication skills set standout candidates apart in this collaborative and innovative field. These skills enable developers to design reliable robotic systems, integrate hardware and software seamlessly, and adapt effectively within multidisciplinary teams.

Job description

Robotics Software Engineer | Experienced
Atlanta, GA - Full-Time - Onsite/Hybrid - 3-6 years experience
Greenzie's mission is to free humans from repetitive outdoor labor. We're starting with the hardest tasks first - highly repetitive outdoor work in the green industry: lawn maintenance, turf mowing, landscaping. We are hiring roboticists who want to develop software for production robots doing real work out in the field today. Join our Team.
As a Robotics Software Engineer you will:
  • Own a subsystem of our autonomous outdoor platform end to end - design, implementation, testing, and the bugs that surface in the field
  • Develop software for our autonomous outdoor robotics platform in C++ and Python using the Robot Operating System (ROS/ROS2)
  • Debug hard problems on real hardware in tough real-world conditions, where the sensor data is messy and the terrain is uneven
  • Maintain a high standard for the team through code review, pair programming, and mentoring early-career engineers
  • Perform data collection and analysis with our robots to identify the best solutions to the real-world challenges they face
  • Evaluate and integrate sensors and devices, and make the call on what makes it into the product
  • Help shape technical direction in sprint planning, retrospectives, and roadmap planning
  • Build a great company: it's up to you how involved you want to be. We are an open book and share the experience of building a company from customer discovery to sales to marketing, you can participate and learn all aspects of business.

As a candidate you already:
  • Have 3-6 years of professional software engineering experience, including production-deployed code
  • Have a BS or MS in Robotics, CS, EE, CompE, ME, or a related field - or equivalent experience
  • Have real depth in at least one of: control systems, computer vision, sensor fusion, motion planning, SLAM
  • Are strong in C++, comfortable in Python, and fluent with CMake and related development tools
  • Have built and shipped software on ROS (ROS 1 or ROS 2), including simulation and testing workflows
  • Write clean, tested code and have opinions about what good engineering practice looks like
  • Are comfortable working with Linux and can navigate your way around the command line
  • Have experience working with AI software development tools (Copilot, Claude Code, Codex, etc)
  • Have debugged systems where software meets hardware, and know that the log file rarely tells the whole story
  • Desire to free humans from hard, manual labor

You might also (nice-to-have):
  • Have worked on robots that operate outdoors, off-road, or in unstructured environments
  • Have experience with safety-critical systems or functional safety practices
  • Have worked on a fleet - deployment, telemetry, OTA updates, or remote diagnostics
  • Have mentored junior engineers or led a small project team
  • Have mowed a lawn or two
  • Appreciate a results-based, startup culture

The benefits we offer to full-time employees:
  • Equity
  • Employee Health Benefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, with options for HSA
  • 401K matching
  • Short-Term and Long-Term Disability
  • Any hardware you need: Macbook Pro? Sure. Slick ThinkPad running Ubuntu? You got it.
  • A transparent, entrepreneurial, startup culture: want to help with sales and marketing? Join in (but be ready to take on real tasks).
