Robotics Software Engineer, Multimodal Inspection

Job description

Field AI — Robotics Software Engineer, Multimodal Inspection (Irvine, California).

Job responsibilities

  • Develop inspection modalities beyond RGB, from sensing to insight, such as radiometric thermal, gas detection, and acoustic signatures.
  • Fuse these modalities into the perception and mission pipeline.
  • Implement sensing-based behavior activation.
  • Deliver per-asset evidence and alerts into the data platform and on-prem flows.
  • Analyze multimodal inspection performance across real-world deployments.

Job requirements

  • MS in robotics, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, computer science, or a related field, with 3+ years building sensing software for real robots.
  • Strong C++ and Python, and ROS 2 experience integrating sensor drivers and real-time pipelines.
  • Hands-on camera and thermal calibration, cross-modal registration, and the geometry to project detections between sensors and 3D.
  • Experience with real-time constraints: latency budgets, dropout handling, and persisting data through network outages.
  • A field mindset: you have debugged a sensor on a robot in a place with no desk.
