Job Description

We're seeking a Robot Embedded Software Engineer to join our team, focusing on the foundational embedded software for our autonomous mobile robot (AMR) systems. While our product is a key platform, your work will extend to other robot systems, including those developed in joint projects with external partners. This role is essential for enabling a robot's core functions by managing the direct interaction between its hardware and our advanced applications. Our AMRs use SLAM for autonomous navigation and feature a powerful combination of x86 CPUs and Arm® (Cortex®-M7) based microcontrollers. Your responsibilities will involve developing critical embedded software, which includes: - Hardware Interface Development: Building the software components that allow higher-layer applications to efficiently access and utilize all hardware resources across various robot platforms. - Device Driver Creation: Implementing robust driver layers for crucial components like sensors, actuators, and communication modules, ensuring smooth data flow for diverse robotic systems. - System Reliability & Safety: Developing sophisticated monitoring systems for hardware anomalies and implementing fail-safe mechanisms to protect robots during unexpected events. - Real-time Embedded Systems: Designing and programming embedded system firmware, often leveraging RTOS, to control critical, time-sensitive robot operations. In this role, you'll provide the essential software infrastructure that ensures our autonomous mobile robots, both internal and through partnerships, operate reliably and efficiently by bridging the gap between high-level applications and the underlying hardware. Within our collaborative software development team, your contributions will include: - Hands-on coding. - Strategic planning and integration of new frameworks and middleware. - Active participation in our Scrum development process. - Performing peer code reviews to uphold our quality standards. [ Team and Role ] You will be an integral part of the AMR Software Team within our Technology division, which is the heart of our core technology development.
