Robotics Software Engineer: Government Projects

The role

The Robotics Software Engineer: Government Projects will lead the implementation of innovative robotic manufacturing systems. This role involves R&D software feature development and hands-on delivery for proof of concepts, pilot demonstrations and specialized systems.

What you will do

• Develop and implement algorithms, systems, and architecture for high-DOF robotic systems working in manufacturing environments.
• Partner with Systems and Applications Engineers to define robotics software feature requirements needed for non-standard and R&D projects.
• Execute proof-of-concept projects that demonstrate the capabilities of GrayMatter Robotics' (GMR) robotic technologies.
• Stay up to date with new research and novel findings in the fields of robotics and artificial intelligence.
• Test and evaluate current state-of-art algorithms and techniques of planning, learning, perception, and control.
• Collaborate with the Robotics Software team to maintain coding best practices and standards.
• Maintain software features and versioning for systems deployed to govt facilities.
• Rapidly modify and iterate on the current software stack.
• Rapidly test and prototype new inspection sensors, tools, and processes.
• Partner with GMR software engineers to prototype new ideas, processes, and methods.

Required qualifications

• Master’s degree or higher in Robotics, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering or related engineering field
• 2+ years of demonstrated industry experience in developing, implementing, and testing algorithms for planning/learning/perception/control.
• Software development for complex function-based software that interacts with sensor inputs, control loops, and redundancy.
• Proficiency in C++ and Python production-level coding.
• Proficiency in working with ROS2 and other open-source libraries relevant to robotics.
• Excellent technical and analytical skills.

Nice to have

• 4+ years of production deploying complex robotics systems
• Experience with R&D of robotics systems
