ABOUT THE ROLE Join a defense technology team developing autonomous robotic systems. You will build and debug production C++ software on physical hardware, working across sensor data, tracking, control, and autonomy. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own production C++ features end to end across sensor data, tracking, control, or autonomy. - Profile and improve software you own, including threading, process structure, latency, and timing. - Write tests alongside features and maintain CI/CD and hardware-in-the-loop testing. - Debug issues that arise on physical hardware, including during field testing.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - At least 4 years of hands-on robotics software engineering experience. - Experience writing production C++ that ran on a physical robotic system and was used repeatedly in the field or in operation. - Experience owning hardware-facing features and working with sensor data, tracking, control, or autonomy. - Fluency with real-time systems, including threading, latency, and timing analysis. - Experience building or maintaining CI/CD or hardware-in-the-loop testing for robotics software. - Familiarity with sensor synchronization, coordinate-frame transforms, sensor fusion, Kalman filtering, or target tracking is helpful. - ROS or ROS2, cameras, IMUs, encoders, gimbal or turret systems, and defense, aerospace, or safety-critical software experience are useful. - Must meet US Person requirements for export control purposes.
COMPENSATION & BENEFITS Base salary is $185,000 to $235,000 annually, plus equity. Visa sponsorship is not available. LOCATION On-site in San Francisco, California, five days per week, with field test days included.
