Robotic Systems Engineer

What You’ll Accomplish:

• Contribute to the development and integration of key robotic subsystems by supporting software, hardware, and systems-level efforts.
• Collaborate across disciplines to define and refine requirements that guide the transition from prototype to production.
• Help characterize system performance and identify limitations through testing, data analysis, and hands-on troubleshooting.
• Develop tools and workflows for system bring-up, calibration, and validation to support cross-functional development.
• Participate in early-stage design analysis and trade studies to inform architectural and implementation decisions.
• Interface with sensing, actuation, and control components, ensuring robust communication between hardware and software

Who You Are:

• 3–5 years of experience in robotics, systems integration, or related engineering roles.
• Proficient in Python and comfortable working in a Linux-based development environment; experience with C++ or ROS is a plus.
• Skilled in debugging complex systems that span software and hardware.
• Comfortable reading technical documentation and collaborating with vendors to integrate new devices or tune system performance.
• Able to reason through early product requirements, analyze tradeoffs, and contribute to design discussions from both a system and implementation perspective.
• Clear communicator who works well with cross-functional teams and contributes thoughtfully to design reviews and documentation.
• Adaptable, hands-on, and energized by working in environments where the path forward is not always fully defined.
• Bachelor's or Master’s in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
• On-site presence expected at least 3 days per week at our Charlestown, MA offices to stay close to the hardware.
