Description
We are hiring a Robotics SWE ⏰ Start date: ASAP 📍Zürich, Switzerland (on-site, remote not possible) 🦾 Full-time (100%) 💼 YOUR ROLE   Deploying robots means more than training the latest policy. As a robotics SWE, you will work across the stack and define how developers, operators, and customers interact with our product. You know that a hardware abstraction layer and subsystem APIs are the foundation to a system in which a growing team of engineers can contribute without slowing down and that doesn't break when hardware changes. You value delivering a polished product just as much as building a reliable, maintainable system. What you'll be doing: - Develop the robotics stack from low-level drivers and behavior trees to health management and software configuration - Implement data and telemetry ingestion from the robots to the cloud - Build internal tools such as a teleoperation interface, robot fleet management, and data dashboard - Build classical robotics autonomy pipelines such as 3D mapping, localization, and autonomous navigation - Drive CI/CD pipelines, test frameworks, and developer tooling. You will establish practices ranging from memory safety to architectural guidelines 🤖 YOU   What you should have: - 3+ years in a professional SWE environment, preferably in Robotics, Automotive, or Aerospace - Strong modern C++ experience and experience in Python - Solid fundamentals of Linux such as systemd, time synchronization, schedulers and networking fundamentals (TCP/UDP) - Experience in debugging complex issues using core dumps, debuggers (gdb), and application profiling (perf, ftrace) - Experience in test automation (unit tests, integration tests) - Worked on embedded platforms and sensor integration These skills are a plus: - Experience in Rust, ROS2, or Zenoh - Experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and simulation-in-the-loop (SIL) testing - Experience with NVIDIA Jetson - Experience in common robotics algorithms (SLAM, pointcloud processing, control theory, computer vision) As the first dedicated robotics SWE, you will have a massive impact on our engineering culture. As the team grows, you can remain a high-impact generalist and work across all layers of abstraction or specialize and lead individual subsystems.   Don't worry if you don't hit every check-mark. We value engineers who care about building great products and can learn to get things working. Just give it a go and apply.
