## About the Role

BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, or equivalent Experience in taking in-house safety-critical software from concept to production Strong experience with C++ and Python Demonstrated safety-critical software development experience, ideally under a recognized functional-safety standard (IEC 61508, ISO 13849, ISO 3691-4, ISO 26262, DO-178C, EN 50128, IEC 62304, or similar) Experience with embedded and real-time systems (RTOS or bare-metal), working close to the hardware Experience participating in HARA and software DFMEA Experience with coding standards and their toolchains - MISRA and static analysis (e.g. Polyspace, Coverity, LDRA, Klocwork) Understanding of electromechanical systems and how hardware changes affect software and vice-versa Experience with wireless communication technologies in an embedded context (Wi-Fi, UWB, BLE, or similar RF) Experience delivering safety-relevant software in a fast-moving, iterative environment The seniority
and credibility to push back constructively both against under-engineering and over-prescription

Nice to have:

Positioning or state-estimation background - e.g. fiducial/marker tracking (QR, datamatrix, AprilTag, ArUco), dead-reckoning / encoder odometry, and multi-source cross-checking Background in a safety-critical domain such as automotive AV/ADAS, aerospace/avionics, rail signaling, or consumer robotics (robot vacuums, drones, AR/VR) Experience qualifying a compiler or tool for a safety context, or standing up a safety-relevant CI / static-analysis pipeline

## Description

Staff Robotics Software Engineer, Safety-Critical Software About Mytra: We're creating an entirely new way to solve the most ubiquitous problem in industry - moving and storing material. We're applying robotics and distributed software to create a new class of product for this $1T market. We're focused on the supply chain industry first. The industry is in a massive bind with the continued growth of e-commerce, sharp rise in costs, and supply chain disruptions. What has been a "sleepy" industry for decades is now at the epicenter of sustaining the global economy. Mytra's robotics team is looking for a Staff Software Engineer to develop safety-critical software on our robotic fleet. You\'ll own how safety-relevant software gets built and scaled - taking the safety concept and architecture and realizing it through the development process to production. This role will cover projects such as localization, fail-safe communications, and motion-stopping, using estimation, monitoring, and
safe software design best practices to build up safety functions. You will shape how we ship safety rigor across the stack as we scale. What you'll do:

Own projects such as signal redundancy, sensor fusion, safety-critical state estimation, and fail-safe wireless communications Implement highly performant, real-time software for critical safety functions on robots that mitigate both machine and human hazards Cross-collaboration with computer vision / firmware / systems teams to realize safety goals and deliver safety-critical software in a scalable and agile environment Select and integrate the safety-relevant toolchain, including safety-rated or qualified compilers, static analysis, and coding-standard tooling Contribute to HARA and software DFMEA from the implementation side, informing the safety analysis with realistic failure modes and mitigations Build robust diagnostic tools to detect, reproduce, and root-cause faults in the field Mentor software developers and contribute to increased test coverage and coding best practices across the stack
