About this role
Overview
Weave is deploying general-purpose robots in homes and businesses. In under a year, we’ve gone from first design concept to paid deployments for our customers and are looking to grow our team.
We are looking for a Robotics Systems Engineer whose primary focus is building safe and performant planning and control systems tightly coupled with our autonomy and networking stack. This role sits at the boundary between controllers, autonomy, perception, operating systems, and networks: you will be responsible for the safe, dexterous, low-latency, and reliable operation of our robots. You will also work closely with our electrical, mechanical and deployment teams to ensure the observability of our systems for quick diagnostics and rapid iteration as we deploy our robots for real-world customers.
Responsibilities
Architect and implement near real-time motion planning, controls and networking systems
Optimize planning, control and networking stacks for high-frequency data streams
Tune drivers, kernels, and middleware to achieve real-time performance
Build tooling and telemetry for end-to-end latency measurement, debugging, and fault detection
Requirements
Experience with ROS and embedded systems, especially in real-time or near real-time environments
Low-level or kernel-level networking experience, including performance tuning and debugging
Mechatronics engineering experience is a plus
