## About the Role

* Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, AI/ML, or a related field - with demonstrated autonomous-systems experience through projects, research, professional work, or internships. Depth of hands-on experience matters more than degree level.
 * Strong foundation in robotics algorithms - sensor fusion, state estimation, environmental perception, and motion/path planning.
 * High proficiency in C++ and Python, with an emphasis on performance-critical, real-time code.
 * Experience optimizing algorithms for GPU or embedded compute; CUDA kernel development and profiling on NVIDIA platforms (e.g., Jetson) is a strong plus.
 * Experience with ROS2 and Nav2 (or comparable robotics middleware/navigation stacks) strongly preferred.
 * Familiarity with deep-learning-based perception and frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow - valuable for perception-focused work, though not required for every specialty.
 * Comfort working in a fast-paced, cross-functional team, with a first-principles, analytical approach to problem-solving.
 * A drive to take algorithms from prototype to real-world deployment on physical hardware.
