Our robotics intelligence framework delivers reliable, autonomous solutions for industries with complex operational demands. With advanced bi-manual robots, we are enabling groundbreaking advancements in manufacturing by empowering robots to perform critical real-world tasks. We are driven by the mission to make autonomous systems practical and impactful today.\nRole Description\nThis is a high-impact, high-ownership role for a builder who wants to improve the software foundation behind our robots. You will work directly with the founding team to strengthen the systems that power perception, spatial reasoning, teleoperation, training, deployment, and internal infrastructure. This role involves contributing to systems that enable robots to interpret and reason about their environment. We are looking for someone who values equity participation and wants to capture the upside of the value they create. You won't just be an employee; you will be a key architect of our success. Strong systems roles in robotics and simulation are common across the space, but we place particular emphasis on building reliable, production-ready systems that integrate perception, learning, and real-world deployment.\nWhat You’ll Do\nBuild Data Infrastructure: Design and maintain the pipelines that collect, store, organize, and version robot data from teleop, sensors, and deployments.\nSupport AI Training: Help turn raw robot data into clean, usable datasets for model training and evaluation.\nContribute to Perception and Reasoning Systems: Help build systems that enable robots to interpret their environment and structure information for downstream decision making.\nStrengthen Core Robotics Software: Contribute to the software infrastructure that underpins robot behavior, debugging, testing, and deployment.\nShip Efficient Code: Write high-performance C, C++, or Rust code for systems where latency, reliability, and efficiency matter.\nWork Across the Stack: Collaborate with robotics, ML, and hardware engineers to make the full development loop faster and more reliable.\nImprove Simulation Workflows: Help connect simulation environments to real robot workflows for testing, iteration, and validation.\nQualifications\nEducation: BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.\nExperience: 3+ years building software for robotics, embedded systems, simulation, or other performance-critical environments.\nSystems Programming: Expert-level programming in C, C++, or Rust, with strong Python skills.\nRobotics Exposure: Experience with robots, teleoperation, or robotics middleware is strongly preferred.\nSimulation Experience: Familiarity with at least one simulation environment such as MuJoCo, Isaac Sim, Gazebo, or similar.\nMachine Learning: Experience training, fine-tuning, or evaluating models in computer vision, language, or multimodal domains. Comfortable working with datasets, model iteration, and evaluation workflows.\nEngineering Excellence: Strong debugging, profiling, and software design skills, with a track record of shipping reliable systems.\nStartup Mindset: Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment where priorities evolve and ownership is high.\nBonus Points\nExperience with ROS or ROS2.\nFamiliarity with data pipelines, storage systems, or experiment tracking.\nFamiliarity with modern computer vision approaches.\nExperience with real-time systems, networking, or distributed systems.\nExposure to ML training workflows, dataset management, or robot learning.\nOpen source contributions or a portfolio of systems-level work.\nWhy Join Us\nOwnership: We offer a substantial equity package designed for those who believe in our mission and want to be rewarded for the company's long-term success.\nImpact: Work directly on real-world projects and see your code deployed in the real world immediately. We are already shipping robots in production.\n Culture: A collaborative, high-velocity supportive environment conducive to both personal and professional growth.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4193,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Canada","iso":"CA","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Robotics AI","Industrial Robotics","Humanoid Robots"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-26T12:04:19Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":8,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.232,"p_room":0.35,"age_days":138,"expected_fill_days":22,"reasons":["conf:0","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-19T05:45:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/autonomique-california-usa-software-engineer-robotics-systems","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/autonomique-california-usa-software-engineer-robotics-systems.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-20T00:00:19Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":8,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-21T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3784134},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3784134"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fautonomique-california-usa-software-engineer-robotics-systems"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fautonomique-california-usa-software-engineer-robotics-systems"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fautonomique-california-usa-software-engineer-robotics-systems"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/autonomique-california-usa-software-engineer-robotics-systems\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fautonomique-california-usa-software-engineer-robotics-systems"}]}
