Robotics Software Engineer, Multimodal Inspection

What You Will Get To Do

• Develop inspection modalities beyond RGB, from sensing to insight, such as radiometric thermal, gas detection, and acoustic signatures.

• Fuse these modalities into the perception and mission pipeline.

• Implement sensing-based behavior activation.

• Deliver per-asset evidence and alerts into the data platform and on-prem flows.

• Analyze multimodal inspection performance across real-world deployments.

What You Have

• MS in robotics, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, computer science, or a related field, with 3+ years building sensing software for real robots.

• Strong C++ and Python, and ROS 2 experience integrating sensor drivers and real-time pipelines.

• Hands-on camera and thermal calibration, cross-modal registration, and the geometry to project detections between sensors and 3D.

• Experience with real-time constraints: latency budgets, dropout handling, and persisting data through network outages.

• A field mindset: you have debugged a sensor on a robot in a place with no desk.

What Will Set You Apart

• Optical gas imaging, multi-gas sensing, or radiometric thermal analysis.

• Acoustic anomaly detection for rotating machinery.

• Predictive maintenance integrations (CMMS, SCADA) or functional safety experience.

• Applying foundation models to thermal or non-RGB imagery.
