Zusammenfassung

Deftai in San Francisco, CA is seeking a Controls Engineer Intern to work on low-level control and motion systems for bimanual wheeled robots in production environments. You will ship code that runs on real hardware, debug edge cases on the factory floor, and directly impact robot performance.

The role covers real-time supervisory control, inverse kinematics improvements, sensor fusion for mobile base localization, and integration of new actuators with safety features.

Qualifikationen

• Strong fundamentals in classical control theory with hands-on hardware experience.
• Proficiency in Python and C/C++ for real-time embedded or robotic apps.
• Hands-on experience with inverse kinematics solvers and simulation environments.
• Experience with rigid-body kinematics and coordinate frame transformations.
• Experience with sensor fusion techniques using IMU, encoders, etc.

Aufgaben

• Design and implement real-time supervisory control for smooth mode transitions.
• Improve inverse kinematics solvers for multi-arm manipulation and robustness.
• Develop sensor fusion pipelines for precise localization and orientation control.
• Integrate new actuators and configure motor control modes with safety limits.
