Develop high-quality software for robotic autonomy simulation frameworks, focusing on performance, coding best practices, and system enhancements.
We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to enhance simulation frameworks for robotic autonomy. You will build foundational tools to develop and test autonomy stacks, contributing to robust robotic solutions.
Responsibilities:
- Develop high-quality C++ software across the robot software stack, including high-frame-rate camera and vision systems, GPU kernels, low-memory image compression libraries, high-performance inter-process communication buffers, data logging and telemetry systems, and evaluation&replay tools
- Drive product improvement through proactive gap identification and enhancement advocacy.
- Champion best coding practices, including performance and memory tracking utilities.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or related field.
- Proficiency in modern C++ (C++14/17/20) and Python.
- 8+ years of experience designing high-performance software for resource-constrained systems.
- Familiarity with robotics frameworks (e.g., ROS/ROS2)
- Must be on-site with no remote work option.
Preferred Skills:
- Familiarity with physical simulators (e.g., MuJoCo, IsaacSim).
- Experience in GPU programming with CUDA and real-time simulation tools.
- Expertise in deployed robotics environments.
- Proficiency with one or more physical simulators (e.g., MuJoCo, IsaacSim, Drake, PyBullet, PhysX) and experience working in a deployed robotics environment.
