This is a player-coach role, mentoring others while delivering practical, production-ready solutions. You will collaborate with sensor vendors, contract manufacturers and internal teams to define data, metrics, and infrastructure that

Qualifications

• 10+ years of practical experience calibrating complex robotic or sensor-rich systems in real production environments.
• Experience designing and delivering calibration systems end to end, including algorithms and operator workflow.
• Deep expertise across multiple sensor modalities and coupling sensor extrinsics to kinematics.
• Understanding of production calibration requirements: repeatability, data collection, throughput.
• Experience building data and metrics infrastructure for calibration at scale.
• Strong programming skills in C++ and Python

Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and deliver calibration systems end to end, including algorithms, fixtures, on-fixture software, data pipelines, validation, and operator workflow.
• Own calibration across perception sensors (RGB cameras, LiDAR, thermal imagers, and other modalities) and kinematic calibration of the robot.
• Establish data and metrics infrastructure underpinning calibration, including per-unit records, accuracy and drift metrics, traceability, fleet monitoring.
• Deliver calibration fixture software and operator-facing applications on Linux.
• Provide in-field self-check and recalibration capabilities to maintain calibration validity over Digit's service life.
• Define requirements that calibration outputs place on downstream manufacturing processes.
• Coordinate with sensor vendors and contract manufacturers on calibration deployment and training.
• Identify, hire, mentor, and develop other engineers contributing to calibration work.
