Job description
Field AI is transforming how robots interact with the real world. We are building risk-aware, reliable, and field-ready AI systems that address the most complex challenges in robotics, unlocking the full potential of embodied intelligence. We go beyond typical data-driven approaches or pure transformer-based architectures, and are charting a new course, with already-globally-deployed solutions delivering real-world results and rapidly improving models through real-field applications.
Job requirements
- Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent hands-on industry experience
- Strong software engineering fundamentals with proficiency in C, C++, and Python for developing, integrating, debugging, and testing robotic systems
- Hands-on experience developing, integrating, testing, or debugging physical robotic or autonomous systems
- Broad understanding of robotic systems, including sensing, state estimation, planning, control, communication, compute, and actuation
- Experience developing and debugging robotics software using ROS 2 and distributed message-passing architectures
- Strong experience working in Linux environments , with familiarity with real-time systems and RT-patched Linux kernels
- Proficiency with Git and modern collaborative software development practices, including code review, branching, integration, and regression workflows
- Experience diagnosing complex system-level failures where root causes may span software, middleware, networking, compute, sensors, and hardware
