Member of Technical Staff - Robotics, Frontier AI Robotics

Job description

Help us build the software stack underneath Frontier AI & Robotics: the layer between hardware and the AI policies running on it. You’ll work end-to-end across the stack, from bringing up sensors and actuators at the HW/SW boundary, to hardening the multi-process runtime that ties them together, to shipping the framework changes that let the rest of the team move faster.

This is a generalist role with a real systems edge. We need someone equally at home down at the sensor and OS boundary (drivers, IPC, real-time behavior, profiling) and up in robotics application code (most of it Python).

You’ll work with sharp, motivated engineers across hardware, ML research, controls, and ops on…
