Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and optimize C++ software for controlling and coordinating large-scale robotic arms.
  • Develop motion-planning and trajectory-generation algorithms for complex industrial-arm workspaces.
  • Implement real-time sensor fusion and state estimation to improve arm localization and end-effector precision.
  • Program robotic-arm motions in coordination with other systems.
  • Develop and maintain simulated environments and automated test frameworks for system verification.
  • Lead system integration and validation across hardware and software.
  • Contribute to architecture decisions for controls and electrical systems, including component selection and standardization.
  • Participate in design and code reviews.

Requirements

  • Master’s degree or higher in Software Engineering, Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
  • At least 5 years of professional experience in robotics software development.
  • Expert-level proficiency in modern C++ and Python in a professional robotics software environment.
  • Deep understanding of robotic arm kinematics, multi-body dynamics, and motion planning.
  • Hands-on experience with robotic platforms, sensors, actuators, localization, perception, and control systems.
  • Practical experience designing and optimizing sensor-fusion and state-estimation algorithms.
  • Strong knowledge of autonomy algorithms, robotics frameworks, and simulation environments.
  • Experience programming industrial robots in high-level languages is preferred.
  • Knowledge of formal control theory, linear algebra, redundant kinematic chains, or dynamic-system stabilization is preferred.
  • Experience delivering products to end users and production environments is preferred.
  • Familiarity with hardware design, prototyping, and manufacturing processes is preferred.

Benefits

  • Based at ICON’s Austin, Texas headquarters.
