Boston Dynamics is looking for a highly motivated and skilled Robotics Software Engineer to join the Atlas team. In this role, you will play a key part in developing, maintaining, and hardening the behavior software and API for our advanced humanoid robots. You will work on developing new behaviors, debugging failures, and creating tools to streamline the development and debugging processes.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop behavior-level software that drives the robot’s locomotion and manipulation behaviors.
• Conduct thorough testing and debugging on our in-house robot fleet
• Produce highly reliable, maintainable, and easily testable code
• Build and improve tools to enhance the efficiency of operating and debugging the robot software and behaviors.
• Work together with fellow software software engineers on the Atlas team.

Required Skills and Experience:

• 5+ years’ of professional experience with modern C++, including the standard template library (STL), object-oriented programming (OOP), with an emphasis on memory and compute performance.
• Proven track record of developing Python for scripting, data analysis, and visualization.
• Experience working with Linux environments and networking protocols (e.g., TCP/IP, UDP). Familiarity with Protobufs and RPC is highly desirable.
• Prior experience with version control systems (Git), build systems (Bazel), and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.

Nice-to-Have Skills:

• Experience with embedded systems, motor control, and actuated systems.
• Experience with real-time application development.
• Familiarity with graph data structures.
• Experience with simulation environments (e.g., Mujoco).
• Experience with robotics software frameworks (e.g., ROS).

We are interested in every qualified candidate who is eligible to work in the United States. However, we are not able to sponsor visas for this position.
