We are an angel-funded start-up seeking extremely passionate teammates to help push the boundaries of human- robot interaction and enable the best play and learning paradigm for children. We focus on your strengths & passion and your ability to grow along side extremely motivated and talented teammates in inventing the future. 

System/Robotics Software Engineer

Role:

Designing and implementing software to combine motor control, sensors, and AI computing processors into a unified framework to power an intelligent robot companion for children. Own the system/robotics software stack and eventually build a team of systems/robotics engineers around you.

Responsibilities:

•  Design and develop a robot control system that intelligently handles inputs from a wide variety of user-perception and interaction modules touching a wide variety of components such as control systems, embedded development and AI
  
• Work closely with mechanical engineers to build the protocol to seamlessly communicate with the motors and actuators to produce complex robot motion
  
• Work closely with AI engineers to select the right HW & SW components to enable efficient use of sensors
  
• Work closely with AI engineers to optimize the AI algorithms in the embedded environment
  

• Ability to work in a team in a startup environment – mission driven, fast paced, iterative
  
• Strong passion for building intelligent and efficient systems
  
• Hands-on experience developing, testing and debugging complex interactive robot software
  
• Ability to write performant and maintainable code in general
  
• Experience building autonomous interactive systems equipped with a wide array of sensors
  
• Experience building robust motor control systems
  
• A builder who can balance cutting edge techniques from AI and human-robot interaction research with proven methods to create lifelike interactive agents
  
• Experience shipping a commercial physical hardware device is a plus
  
• Experience developing robots that interact with people in real-world environments is a plus
  
• Experience in the field of social or socially assistive robotics is a plus
  
• Experience with ROS and/or equivalent robotics frameworks
  
• MS/PhD (or equivalent experience) with focus in HRI/HCI, Robotics is a plus
