  • Integrate perception, planning, and control pipelines to ensure reliable robot behavior in complex, partially structured environments.
  • Design and evolve software frameworks that emphasize modularity, scalability, and reuse across multiple robot platforms and hardware configurations.
  • Partner closely with hardware, systems, product, and applications teams to define system capabilities, performance targets, and delivery milestones.
  • Set a high bar for quality, robustness, and real-time performance, especially in safety-critical contexts. Establish technical standards and development practices that balance rapid progress with long-term sustainability.
  • Contribute to and help cultivate a collaborative, high-performing engineering culture.
  • Track advances in robotics, autonomy, controls, and AI, and proactively assess opportunities to introduce new technologies where they add clear value.
  • Coach and mentor other robotics software engineers, supporting both their technical growth and career development.
