62 Diligent Robotics Software Engineer Jobs Hiring Near You

As a Lead, Robotics Software Engineer, you'll have the opportunity to lead the development and deployment of NeuraGrasp, our advanced robotic grasping technology that is shaping the future of warehouse automation.

You will combine hands-on software engineering with technical leadership, working alongside world-class robotics, AI, perception, and hardware teams to transform cutting-edge innovation into production-ready robotic systems operating at scale.

This role is based onsite at our North Vancouver, BC office and requires in-office presence five days per week (Monday-Friday).

• Define and drive the software roadmap required to successfully productize NeuraGrasp technology.
• Translate product objectives into clear technical plans, milestones, and execution strategies.
• Identify technical integration risks early and coordinate solutions across robotics, perception, hardware, and product teams.
• Establish software architecture, engineering standards, and best practices to support scalable product development.
• Lead, coach, and develop a team of employees, providing direction, performance management, career development, and mentorship to drive individual and team success.
• Provide technical leadership throughout deployment, testing, validation, performance monitoring, and field activities.
• Lead design reviews, mentor engineers, and foster technical excellence through collaboration, code reviews, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Lead the integration of NeuraGrasp technology into robotic products, prototypes, and testing environments, ensuring reliable interaction between software, hardware, and perception systems.
• Define, track, and develop tooling to measure key performance indicators (KPIs), system performance, reliability, and failure modes across robotic systems.
• Support field deployments and drive continuous product and hardware improvements through data-driven analysis.
• Improve operational data collection, processing, quality, monitoring, and supporting infrastructure for ongoing product development and optimization.
• Develop robotic applications, software tools, internal platforms, automation frameworks, and testing systems that accelerate experimentation, debugging, validation, and operational analysis.
