ManufacturingSemiconductor
Responsibilities
Write, operate, and debug software and firmware for complex robotics with hard real-time constraints
Design and operate software that coordinates state, timing, and failure recovery across a distributed network of devices
Work hands-on with manufacturing robotics and design software to coordinate a distributed network of devices
Work at multiple levels of the software stack—you'll design and implement a networked API and debug it down to the hardware
Qualification
Required
5+ years of industry experience developing software that interfaces with hardware
Multi-language programming fluency—ability to code fluently in multiple languages at multiple levels of the stack (our robotics engineers primarily use C++ and Python; knowledge of Go is a bonus)
Deep and broad understanding of how computers work (our work involves a variety of processors and computing environments at multiple levels of the stack)
Familiarity with robotics-adjacent systems (sensors, actuators, timing constraints, physical failure modes)
Experience designing, building, and shipping complex software systems that control hardware as part of a team
Experience with version control and working on Linux machines
A first-principles mindset — you question assumptions, reframe problems from the ground up, and approach challenges with a foundational understanding rather than relying solely on precedent
Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field
Preferred
Experience or interest in heterogeneous, distributed computing architectures
Experience in abstracting the control of manufacturing machines, material transport systems, and factory-level orchestration
Experience with instrumenting software for observability and debugging
