What you’ll bring to the table :

  • Bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science or equivalent.
  • 1-3 years of expertise in embedded software, proficient in C and C++.
  • Proficient experience with microcontrollers, preferably within the STM32 family.
  • Familiarity with communication protocols such as USB, I2C, SPI, UART, RS485, etc.
  • Proven track record in bare metal embedded systems.
  • Hands-on experience in firmware development, testing, and system-level bring-up.
  • Experience debugging embedded systems with tools such as scopes and logic analyzers.
  • Experience in conducting bench modifications and fast development of hardware / firmware prototypes.
  • Ability to collaborate and communicate complex technical concepts both verbally and with documentation.
  • Experience reading PCB schematics.
  • Nice to haves from you :

  • Setting up and configuring CMake projects.
  • Previous experience working with robotic or mechatronic systems.
  • Writing and debugging tight control loops.
  • PCB bringup experience.
  • What we offer :

  • Base pay between $130,000 and $160,000, dependent on your skills, qualifications and experience
  • Stock options and huge potential for growth
  • Strong startup (and fun) culture
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage
  • Flexible vacation and sick leave practices
  • Paid parental leave
  • Robust AI fosters a culture of belonging and a shared commitment to equality and equity. Having a diverse set of perspectives is key to ensuring AI and robotics serve the needs of all.

    We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
