The all-in-one, most intuitive, most affordable industrial robots. Backed by General Catalyst.
About the role
We’re looking for a seasoned controls engineer to own control quality across our robotic products through best-in-class, modern engineering practices. In this role, you will operate at the boundary between hardware and software — the layer between electrical engineering and motion planning — working closely with electrical, firmware, and higher-level software teams to deliver smooth, reliable, and precisely characterized motion. This role is onsite at our Glen Cove, NY headquarters a minimum of 3 days per week.
What they're looking for
- We’re looking for engineers who are self-driven, optimistic, creative, and resourceful — excited to apply deep controls expertise to a new class of robotic products
- Controls Depth: Strong classical controls fundamentals —analytical and heuristic tuning, plant and controller modelling, gain and phase margin analysis, bandwidth modelling and testing — along with real-time signal processing and filtering
- Cross-Domain Fluency: Enough understanding of firmware, electrical, and mechanical systems to find and resolve issues at the borders between them
- Experience: 5+ years of proven experience modelling control systems, tuning control loops on real-world systems, and validating models through physical experiments on benchtop equipment
- Clarity of Communication: You excel in written and verbal communication and enjoy leveraging your skills to support your peers
- Impact Driven: You relentlessly seek user impact and value execution over technical idealism
