Job Summary
Were looking for an experienced Senior Robotics Engineer to join the Stretch World Modeling this role you will be a key contributor to our perception stack focusing on how our robots see and understand the world around them. You will lead complex technical initiatives architect new systems and mentor engineers all while working on a product that is already in the hands of customers.
Our team is responsible for providing our urobots with the robust environmental awareness they need to operate effectively. This includes core components like object detection state estimation localization and sensor fusion. A major focus of this role will be on classical perception techniques to ensure our systems are reliable and robust in diverse real-world environments. Techniques such as point cloud & image processing filtering and object detection will be applied to build state estimation and modeling systems. Youll also work on key infrastructure including test suites visualization tools and off-robot data processing pipelines to enable your work. We are a hands-on team and youll regularly test robots analyze their performance and continually improve the products we deliver.
In this role you will:
Design and implement advanced classical perception algorithms to solve complex problems on our robots with a strong emphasis on real-world reliability and performance.
Lead the architecture and development of large-scale systems within our perception stack ensuring they are scalable efficient and maintainable.
Write clean efficient and testable C code serving as a technical leader and establishing best practices for the team.
Collaborate closely with other teams acting as a subject matter expert in perception and a technical leader for cross-functional initiatives.
