If you’re excited about building impactful technology in a dynamic, hands-on environment, we’d love to hear from you!
About the role
- We are looking for a Robotics Engineer with a strong focus on algorithms, ML, and software to build intelligent robotic systems on top of diverse robot platforms. This role centers on developing and integrating perception, state estimation, planning, and learning-based behaviors while deploying them across AMRs, robotic arms, quadrupeds, and humanoids.
You will work closely with perception, ML, and software teams to integrate multi-sensor data into robust autonomy stacks and deploy them on real robotic platforms used for internal development, demos, and customer-facing systems. This is a hands-on software and algorithms role with high system-level impact.
What you'll do
- Develop and integrate robotics algorithms and ML-based systems for perception, state estimation, planning, and control
- Integrate multi-sensor perception outputs (camera, LiDAR, IMU) into autonomy and decision-making stacks
- Build and maintain robot software stacks for diverse platforms (AMR, arm, quadruped, humanoid)
- Implement and tune algorithms for localization, mapping, and sensor fusion; motion planning and trajectory optimization; learning-based behaviors and policies
- Work closely with perception and vision teams to consume and validate ML-based outputs (detection, depth, tracking)
- Deploy and optimize robotics software on embedded and edge compute platforms
- Support integration of autonomy stacks into real robots for demos, testing, and customer use
- Debug system-level autonomy issues spanning sensors, algorithms, and software interactions
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree or higher in Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field
- 6+ years of experience in robotics algorithms, autonomy, or robotics software engineering
- Strong foundation in core robotics algorithms, including state estimation and sensor fusion; motion planning and control; localization and mapping
- Strong software engineering skills in C++ and/or Python
- Experience deploying robotics algorithms on real robotic platforms
- Ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams in fast-paced environments
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with ROS / ROS 2 and modern robotics middleware
- Background in learning-based robotics, reinforcement learning, or imitation learning
- Experience integrating ML models into real-time robotic systems
- Familiarity with simulation tools and workflows (Gazebo, Isaac Sim, Mujoco, etc.)
- Experience working across multiple robot morphologies (mobile, manipulation, legged)
- Comfort working in a startup environment with ambiguity and rapid iteration
Benefits (subject to location and local regulations)
- Competitive salary and equity
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
- 401(k) retirement plan
- Flexible vacation and time-off policy
- Collaborative, fast-paced, and inclusive work environment
- Opportunity to work on cutting-edge technologies with a highly cross-functional team

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
