We’re applying robotics and distributed software to create a new class of product for this $1T market. We’re focused on the supply chain industry first. The industry is in a massive bind with the continued growth of e-commerce, sharp rise in costs, and supply chain disruptions. What has been a “sleepy” industry for decades is now at the epicenter of sustaining the global economy.\n About the role\nMytra's robotics team is looking for a Staff Software Engineer to develop safety-critical software on our robotic fleet. You'll own how safety-relevant software gets built and scaled - taking the safety concept and architecture and realizing it through the development process to production. This role will cover projects such as localization, fail-safe communications, and motion-stopping, using estimation, monitoring, and safe software design best practices to build up safety functions. You will shape how we ship safety rigor across the stack as we scale.\nWhat you’ll do:\nOwn projects such as signal redundancy, sensor fusion, safety-critical state estimation, and fail-safe wireless communications\nImplement highly performant, real-time software for critical safety functions on robots that mitigate both machine and human hazards\nCross-collaboration with computer vision / firmware / systems teams to realize safety goals and deliver safety-critical software in a scalable and agile environment\nSelect and integrate the safety-relevant toolchain, including safety-rated or qualified compilers, static analysis, and coding-standard tooling\nContribute to HARA and software DFMEA from the implementation side, informing the safety analysis with realistic failure modes and mitigations\nBuild robust diagnostic tools to detect, reproduce, and root-cause faults in the field\nMentor software developers and contribute to increased test coverage and coding best practices across the stack\nIdeal Candidates:\nBS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, or equivalent\nExperience in taking in-house safety-critical software from concept to production\nStrong experience with C++ and Python\nDemonstrated safety-critical software development experience, ideally under a recognized functional-safety standard (IEC 61508, ISO 13849, ISO 3691-4, ISO 26262, DO-178C, EN 50128, IEC 62304, or similar)\nExperience with embedded and real-time systems (RTOS or bare-metal), working close to the hardware\nExperience participating in HARA and software DFMEA\nExperience with coding standards and their toolchains - MISRA and static analysis (e.g. Polyspace, Coverity, LDRA, Klocwork)\nUnderstanding of electromechanical systems and how hardware changes affect software and vice-versa\nExperience with wireless communication technologies in an embedded context (Wi-Fi, UWB, BLE, or similar RF)\nExperience delivering safety-relevant software in a fast-moving, iterative environment\nThe seniority and credibility to push back constructively both against under-engineering and over-prescription.\nNice to have:\nPositioning or state-estimation background - e.g. fiducial/marker tracking (QR, datamatrix, AprilTag, ArUco), dead-reckoning / encoder odometry, and multi-source cross-checking\nBackground in a safety-critical domain such as automotive AV/ADAS, aerospace/avionics, rail signaling, or consumer robotics (robot vacuums, drones, AR/VR)\nExperience qualifying a compiler or tool for a safety context, or standing up a safety-relevant CI / static-analysis pipeline\nA Final Note:\nIf this role excites you, we encourage you to apply - even if you don’t check every box. At Mytra, we build bots, but we hire humans. We value thoughtful challengers who communicate with clarity and respect, and we’re lifelong learners committed to getting better every day. We move fast, learn faster, and show up for each other under pressure. The best outcomes come from diverse perspectives working together to build something meaningful and built to last\nBenefits Include:\nCompetitive compensation and equity grants at a high-growth company backed by top-tier VCs\nFully subsidized health coverage, including medical (baseline plans), dental, and vision for employees and dependents\n401(k) plans and employer-subsidized life insurance\nFully subsidized lunch and snacks at HQ-we eat and share stories together at the “long” table\nGenerous PTO and company-paid holidays, including one week over the winter break so everyone can recharge together\nVoluntary pet insurance, Voluntary Life Insurance, Accident, Critical Illness, and Hospital Indemnity\nFully subsidized tax advisory services and education to help you understand your equity\nCommuter benefits, including a up to $150 monthly commuter benefit\nLively, modern combined office and lab space where we rapidly iterate through design, build, and test phases\nFully equipped onsite gym and showers at headquarters\nPay Notice:\nCompensation for this position will be set based on the candidate's experience level and location. The posted salary band is applicable only to the San Francisco Bay Area and is subject to change.\nThis role requires on-site presence at our Brisbane, CA headquarters, for close collaboration with the other teams.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5309,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Life insurance"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Logistics & Warehouse Robotics"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-12T05:45:19Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 3 · green card filings: 3","filings_12m":3,"filings_prev_12m":7,"green_card_filings_12m":3,"median_offered_wage_usd":167500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-03T21:08:04+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)","US Department of Labor: PERM disclosure data (green cards)"],"filings_for_role_12m":1}],"liveness":{"score":63,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.844,"p_room":0.75,"age_days":87,"expected_fill_days":124,"reasons":["conf:1","win:late"],"computed_at":"2026-10-13T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/mytra-staff-robotics-software-engineer-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/mytra-staff-robotics-software-engineer-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-13T16:13:45Z","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":24671,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-14T00:00:00Z"}},"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":176857},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=176857"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmytra-staff-robotics-software-engineer-2"},{"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%2Fmytra-staff-robotics-software-engineer-2"},{"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%2Fmytra-staff-robotics-software-engineer-2"},{"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/mytra-staff-robotics-software-engineer-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmytra-staff-robotics-software-engineer-2"}]}
