About The Role

Agility Robotics is building the future of work through humanoid robots that operate in human environments. In this position you will be developing the low-level software that powers our state-of-the art humanoid robots, constantly improving the robustness, diagnostics, and safety of our system. You will also be on the front-line of robot development, building up brand-new prototypes and working with highly cross-functional teams to transform piles of parts into functional, testable systems.

About The Work

• Contribute to the C++ software stack that powers our robots, interfacing with OS drivers and hardware to enable high-bandwidth, low-latency control
• Work with cross-disciplinary teams to solve complex problems dealing with the integration of software and hardware
• Debug complex cross-domain problems and integrate learned failure modes into improved diagnostics and error reporting
• Integrate diverse computing systems through a variety of communication media: such as Wifi, networking, serial, industrial fieldbus
• Write performant, well-tested, maintainable, and well-documented C++ software

About You

• MS in robotics, computer science, or related field with 2-3 years industry experience (or BS with 5+ years industry experience)
• Skilled at writing modern C++ (17, 20)
• Knowledge of best practices for writing performant and maintainable software
• Proficient in using and programming for recent Linux systems
• Experience writing and debugging software for hardware-in-the-loop systems
• Experience debugging cross-domain (i.e. electrical, mechanical and software) problems with electro-mechanical systems
• Ability to communicate technical information effectively both orally and in writing with other team members
• Authorization to work in the USA

Bonus Points

• Experience with implementation of automation fieldbuses such as EtherCAT, CAN, Profinet, etc. EtherCAT is highly desirable
• Experience developing real-time or low-latency systems
• Experience writing C++ code for embedded systems
• Experience with electronic circuit debugging tools (e.g. multimeters, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers)
• Knowledge of brushless electric motors and motor control
• Knowledge of networking protocols and network configuration in a Linux environment (i.e. systemd / networkd)
• Experience with Python 3.6+
• Familiarity with standard agile and software development processes (issue tracking tools (Jira), feature branching, version control (Git), continuous integration and deployment)

This is a hybrid role based out of one of our Salem, OR, Pittsburgh, PA, or Fremont, CA offices.

The final salary offered to a successful candidate will be dependent on several factors that may include but are not limited to: market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. This range may change based on geographical location and may be modified in the future.
