Descripción de la vacante

Radical AI is seeking a Robotics Software Engineer to design, develop, and deploy software that lets robots and automated workcells execute materials research workflows reliably and autonomously.

You will own robotic task execution, motion and manipulation software, and reusable control capabilities, collaborating with perception, simulation, systems software, mechatronics, mechanical engineering, and materials science to meet fast-changing design requirements.

Formación

• 4+ years of professional software engineering in robotics or automation.
• Proficient in Python and C++.
• Experience with ROS/ROS2.
• Strong understanding of kinematics, motion planning, and real-time control.

Responsabilidades

• Architect and implement reusable software for robot motion, manipulation, workcell control, and autonomous task execution.
• Develop robust state machines, task sequencing, interlocks, and fault detection and recovery for flexible robotic workcells.
• Integrate robotic arms, grippers, sensors, vision outputs, and lab equipment into coordinated automated workflows.
• Implement motion planning, grasping, calibration, and execution logic for variable sample geometries and changing laboratory workflows.
• Develop interfaces to higher‑level orchestration services for scheduling, execution status, commands, and experimental data capture.
• Use simulation and hardware‑in‑the‑loop testing to validate robot behaviors before physical deployment.
• Debug and optimize robotic performance, throughput, reliability, and recoverability on deployed hardware.
• Contribute to architecture, code quality, testing practices, and mentorship across the robotics software stack.
