Introduction:
As a Principal Robotics Software Engineer at 10Beauty, you will play a critical role in architecting and delivering the systems that power our next-generation autonomous manicure robot. This is a highly impactful position for an engineer who thrives at the intersection of hardware and software, is passionate about robotics, and is energized by solving complex real-world problems in a fast-paced startup environment!
What You'll Do:
- Own and evolve the long-term technical architecture of the software that powers our robotic consumer product, with a focus on its performance and reliability in a production environment
- Lead the design, development, and optimization of core software components (primarily in C++ on Raspberry Pi 4/Linux) that control our advanced robotic systems
- Serve as a subject matter expert, tackling the most ambiguous and technically challenging system-level issues that cross disciplines (electrical, mechanical, and computer vision)
- Drive the technical roadmap for robotic control systems, exploring and integrating new technologies and algorithms
- Provide technical leadership and mentorship to other engineers, helping them grow and solve complex problems
What You Have:
- 8+ years of proven experience in software development, with a track record of successfully shipping multiple complex hardware products, most ideally within robotics
- Deep expertise in C++, with a mastery of system design, low-level debugging, and performance optimization.
- Demonstrated expertise in architecting and leading the development of large-scale, real-time, and safety-critical embedded systems.
- Proven ability to solve highly ambiguous and technically challenging problems in collaboration with cross-functional teams.
- Extensive experience with Linux-based embedded systems, hardware/software integration, and real-time constraints.
- Experience with embedded systems in a robotics or electromechanical context is highly preferred.
At 10Beauty, we consider a wide-range of factors when determining compensation, based on individual qualifications, skills, and experience. Equity and benefits are included for all full-time employees. If you believe you can contribute to our team, we invite you to apply.
