## About the role

We are seeking a senior robotics engineer to own the software that makes our wearable robots move. You'll work across the full stack, from the on-device control loop running in real time on a person's body, to the broader software platform that supports it: data pipelines, device management, tooling, and everything in between Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 5+ years' experience in robotics
- Proven track record of writing software that runs on hardware
- Experience in small teams, ideally in start ups, you’re willing to wear many hats and chip in across the board
- Experience with embedded systems -- you can write C/C++ and you understand what's happening at the hardware level
- Proficiency in Python and/or C++ for algorithm development, data analysis, and test scripting, including common AI-coding tools (and their pitfalls)
- Strong foundation in control systems
