Who We Are
We build highly intelligent robotic arms that automate tasks no human was born to do. With computer vision and machine intelligence, we make it easy for anyone to program tasks in a matter of hours instead of weeks, while our platform enables developers to build the next generation of robotic applications. We’re scrappy, we’re focused, and we’re out to change the face of robotics.
What You’ll Be Doing
An articulated robotic arm is a highly nonlinear dynamic system, and that’s before we slap our custom sensors on it, or have it grab an unknown payload. Which turns out to be a vibrating power tool. And then we need to trace its tooltip around the perimeter of an electronics housing, maintaining a constant force and velocity. And all of this needs to happen as fast and precisely as possible.
We’re looking for a controls engineer to make sure the robot is in the right place at the right time. This will be a highly collaborative position — for some projects, you’ll be working with our mechatronics and ECE team to develop low level servo prototypes and test rigs. For others, you’ll be working with the CV, kinematics, motion planning and application logic teams to implement higher order controls. In this position, you will work on controls development throughout the stack, from embedded realtime controls to eventual cloud learning models.
Please only apply for one role at a time! We will assess all your qualifications and contact you if we determine there is a role that is better suited to your skill set.
Responsibilities
Characterize, model and simulate robotic systems
Develop controllers and test assumptions on hardware prototypes
Build out higher level controllers for 5 and 6 DOF robotic arms, maintaining positions or trajectories with uncertain loads
Develop low-level servo firmware to control the speed, position and force of three phase pm motors
Work with our capacitive proximity sensors and other secret sensors in the works to get deeper insights into the robot's surroundings |
