We are looking for an enthusiastic Software Development Engineer to join our perception, localization, and machine learning team. You will be part of an exceptional group of collaborative engineers building the platform and architecture for our onboard mapping, perception, motion planning and control software. In addition, you will collaborate with engineers and scientists across the team to develop cloud-based robot log replay and simulation capabilities.., Specific areas of focus may include (but are not limited too): * Design and develop perception capabilities for new sensor modalities, 3D obstacle avoidance, and localization to support a new types of mobile robots. * Explore new agentic AI capabilities for task generalization. * Design and implement robotic applications and infrastructure in the cloud. * Collaborate with machine learning and perception experts to implement, measure, and deploy algorithms, such as machine learning models. * Influence the team's strategy and contribute to long-term vision and roadmap for generalizable autonomous mobile robotics. * Maintain high standards by participating in reviews, designing for fault tolerance and operational excellence, and creating mechanisms for continuous improvement. * Prototype and test concepts or features, both through simulation, emulators, and with live robotic equipment * Profile, tune, and optimize system performance. * Mentor other engineer team members., We are a multi-disciplinary team of collaborative Applied Scientists and Software Engineers with expertise in Computer Vision, SLAM, motion planning and controls. Our mission is to deliver a robust software solution the utilizes state-of-the-art sensor technologies and algorithms to enable safe and efficient operation of autonomous mobile robots throughout the Amazon fulfillment and transportation network. We take this mission seriously and work hard to achieve it, but we have a lot of fun along the way. After all, what's more fun than building robots? ## Related Videos - [Robots are coming into the wild!
