Develop and integrate production-quality C++/Python software for Poseidon robots, interfacing with motors and sensors, building automated tests and diagnostics, analyzing field failures and metrics, and collaborating with mechanical, electrical, field, and software teams to ensure reliable robotic operation.
The summary above was generated by AI

Salary: $130,000 - $180,000

What you get to do:

  • Support motor and sensor selection, development, and integration efforts on our Poseidon robots, enabling both current and next-gen deployments

  • Write software to interface directly with hardware that improves robot behavior, user safety, and system efficiency

  • Design and implement automated testing and diagnostic frameworks for robotic components, supporting reliable operation in the field, manufacturing, and R&D

  • Analyze metrics and investigate failure modes observed in the field or at our in-house test room

  • Develop highly reliable, maintainable, and testable code

  • Collaborate closely with our highly multidisciplinary team spanning mechanical, electrical, field, and software to deliver a robust robotic system!

What you will need:

  • A bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field

  • Experience owning a project in C++ or Python from development to production

  • Desire to learn new technologies and to apply them to solve real-world challenges

  • Break down complex technical concepts – communicate them clearly to different audiences

  • Loves learning new technologies and applying them to solve real-world challenges

  • Strong problem-solving skills and an ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced, highly cross-functional setting

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Other things to know:

This is a 100% in-person role! The position requires hands-on integration and testing with our robots in office as well as collaboration with our hardware focused teams.

You will be working with a fast moving team of software and mechanical engineers during the most exciting phase of our growth – expanding to support new fish species, more robots in the field, and developing software based tools for fishermen efficiency.

Our technology integrates computer vision and advanced mechanisms to assist fishermen in fish processing, enhancing efficiency and product quality.

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
