Responsibilities

  • Build robust, low-latency C++ and Python software pipelines for robotic motion planning, trajectory tracking, and multi-sensor feedback loops.
  • Deploy robotic arms and Vision-Language-Action foundation models to autonomously wear, adjust, tap, and interact with smart glasses.
  • Emulate human sight, speech, and hearing to validate real-time conversational and visual interactions with multimodal AI assistants.
  • Use mobile and kinematic robotic platforms and physics simulators to model human kinematics, retarget recorded human motions, and train policies before physical execution.
  • Build agentic harnesses that translate natural-language user journeys into synchronized physical execution across automated testbed fleets.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience.
  • At least five years of software development experience with C++ or Python.
  • At least three years of experience testing, maintaining, or launching software products and at least one year of software design and architecture experience.
