Job description

Promise Robotics is pioneering Physical AI for homebuilding - a rapidly growing, venture-backed company bringing together AI, robotics, and manufacturing to help the homebuilding industry meet the growing demand for housing. Our robotic systems, built andย operatedย inside ย AI-powered factories, give the industry the production capacity, consistency, and speed to build more high-quality homes than traditional methods allow. Our team spans AI researchers and roboticists to factory operators, technicians, and production teams - allย buildingย the future ofย homebuildingย together.ย 

We'reย buildingย physical AI for housingย - and unlike most of the field, our robots are already in production, fabricating real structures and generating real operational data every day across multiple factories.ย 

We'reย looking for aย Seniorย Robotics Software Developer to join our team and contribute to developingย cutting-edgeย solutions for our core robotic manufacturing technologies.ย This is a senior IC role with architectural ownership and mentorship responsibility.ย 

Why join us?
  • Purpose-Driven Work:Contribute to projects with significant social, economic, and environmental impact.ย 

  • Growth Opportunities:Be part of a growth-stage startup with substantial upside and leadership potential.ย 

  • Cutting-Edgeย Technology:Work onย state-of-the-artย robotics solutions at the intersection of construction and automation.ย 

  • Collaborative Culture:Join a diverse, high-performing team committed to continuous learning and innovation.ย 

What you'll do:
  • Lead theย development of roboticย simulatorsย ย -ย set up and extend simulation environments and test scenarios that mirror our production cells.ย 

  • Lead theย effortย in motion planning and optimizationย - develop andย optimizeย motion-planning and collision-checking behaviors in ROS 2 / MoveIt2.ย 

  • Developย perceptionย componentsย - implement object detection, pose estimation, and point-cloud processing tasks for material handling and inspection.ย 

  • Write clean, tested codeย - produce well-documented C++ and Python, backed by unit and integration tests.ย ย 

  • Debug integration issuesย - help troubleshoot software-hardware issues alongside the robotics and hardware teams.ย 

  • Set the engineering bar -ย define standards for architecture, testing, and code quality; lead code reviews; mentor junior and mid-level developers.ย 

What you'll need to succeed:
  • Degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Mechatronics, or related fields (Masters/Ph.D. preferred)ย plus 5+ yearsย of relevant robotics software experience.ย 

  • Expert-level C++ and Python,ย withย a track recordย of shipping production-quality robotics software.ย 

  • Strong fundamentals in algorithms, data structures, and basic control concepts.ย 

  • Deep ROS 2 and MoveIt2 experience -ย motion planning, collision checking, and trajectory optimization (e.g., OMPL, CHOMP/STOMP/TrajOpt-style approaches).ย 

  • Ability to solve complex problems involving multi-disciplinary engineering concepts.ย 

  • Strong hands-on experience with aย robotics simulatorย (Gazebo, Isaac Sim,ย MuJoCo, or similar) including physics simulation.ย 

  • Exposure to computer vision or perception concepts.ย ย 

  • Eagerness to learn, take feedback, and work both independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced startup.ย ย 

  • Willingness to work onsite at our R&D labs and production facilitiesย inย Edmonton and Calgary, Alberta.ย 

Preferred Skills:ย 

  • Experiential knowledge usingย Isaac Simย / Omniverseย orย similar simulation tools.ย ย 

  • Applied or research experienceย withย vision-language-action (VLA) modelsย (e.g.,ย OpenVLA, 0, RT-2-style) orย LLM-based task and motion planning.ย ย 

  • Industrial robot programming (KUKA, ABB, or Fanuc) and familiarity with vendor sensor/communication interfaces.ย ย 

  • Sensor systems: industrial cameras, depth sensors, LiDAR, force/torque sensors, laser range finders/projectors.ย ย 

  • Digital-twin technologies for validation and predictive maintenance.ย ย 

  • Machine learning / deep learning applied to robotics.ย ย 

  • Working knowledge ofย CSA Z434ย andย ISO 10218-2ย safety standards for industrial robot systems and cell integration.ย ย 

  • Experience in a fast-paced startup or scaling deep-tech environment.ย 

Benefits:
Competitive salary:ย we believe in data-driven, equitable compensation decisions. We recently completed a compensation review and implemented salary bands that enable us to pay mid to above-average Canadian salaries across various industries.
Stock options:ย everyone has a stake in our company.
Holistic benefits:ย we have a comprehensive benefits package that includes paramedical, dental, vision, and drug coverage for you and your dependents, as well as a health care spending account. These benefits start right from Day 1.
Flexible personal days and vacation policies:ย we care deeply about the well-being of our team.
