Humanoid creates advanced humanoid robots that integrate seamlessly into daily life, enhancing human potential. Learn more about our mission and vision.
About the role
As a Senior Robotics Integration Engineer in San Diego, you will build the hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) CI/CD system that makes this routine. A firmware change, a control-stack update, or a new locomotion policy runs on physical hardware within minutes of a push. Simulation catches most regressions. Your system catches the ones that only appear when metal moves. Every pull request, validated on real HMND hardware, automatically, before it merges. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years in test automation, CI/CD, or test and integration engineering for hardware products such as robotics, automotive, aerospace, or drones
- Experience building or scaling HIL or hardware-in-CI systems: rig design, test orchestration, device farms, or automated hardware regression
- Strong Python and/or C++, and fluency with CI/CD tooling (like GitHub Actions), including self-hosted runners on physical hardware
- Comfort at the hardware/software boundary: reading schematics, wiring a bench, debugging over CAN, EtherCAT, or serial, and scripting power supplies, DAQs, and instruments
- Experience with Nvidia based embedded targets and firmware flashing workflows and bootloader recovery via JTAG
- Experience with Linux based CLI systems
More about this role
Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 - our rapidly developed humanoid platform being deployed in real industrial environments - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.

We have bench rigs, partial automation, and a strong simulation pipeline. You will harden what exists and build the next generation. You will also be the first dedicated test engineer in San Diego, and you will run HIL development as a shared effort across our offices so progress continues while one site is offline.
This is the long-term vision for HIL...
