  • Develop sensor integration, state estimation, and real-time control loops for on-platform testing.

  • Build firmware for motor controllers, sensors, and comms stacks; debug and deploy to devices.

  • Run frequent hardware-in-the-loop and on-floor tests, diagnose on-device issues, and iterate fixes rapidly.

  • Improve CI, diagnostics, deployment, and OTA workflows for lab devices and small fleets.

  • Collaborate closely with mechanical and electrical teams to integrate software with hardware and validate system-level behavior.

Required Skills

  • Located in Chicago or willing to relocate; able to work from the West Loop lab at least 50% of the time.

  • Strong software and firmware skills (Python plus C/C++ or Rust or relate Robotics dev experience) with emphasis on embedded/real-time systems.

  • Practical experience with robotics middleware or frameworks (ROS or equivalent) and sensor stacks (IMU, cameras, lidar).

  • Comfortable debugging on hardware, running real-world experiments, and iterating quickly.

  • Solid engineering practices: version control, automated testing, and reproducible deployments.
