About Agility Robotics

Agility's humanoid robots are deployed today in manufacturing, distribution, and logistics. Proven automation for industrial environments. Backed by SoftBank VF.

About the role

We are seeking a Senior Safety Software Engineer to play a critical role in implementing a functionally safe perception system. In this role, you will bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology and functional safety principles. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to design, develop, and validate safety-critical software architecture.

What they're looking for

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer/Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field
  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a focus on systems level or embedded systems programming (C++, C, or Rust)
  • Strong understanding of software architecture for embedded
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and a strong internal drive for quality and reliability
More about this role

Agility’s commercially deployed humanoids operate alongside teams in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers—tackling physically demanding and repetitive tasks while enabling workers to focus on higher-value work. With industry-leading safety standards and years of proven deployment data, we're pioneering a new era of automation that enhances human potential.

Agility Robotics views safety not as a regulatory constraint, but as a fundamental commercial gateway that is absolutely required to move humanoid robots out of isolated work cells and into shared human environments. You can't build your robot and then make it safe - functional safety must be baked into the hardware, electrical systems, and software from day one.
