Join our embedded systems team to build the sensing, motor control, and low-level actuation firmware that powers our next-generation robotic hands. You will develop real-time drivers, bring up custom hardware, and integrate advanced sensors and actuators to support precise and dexterous manipulation.
Requirements
- 01 Pursuing or completed BS/MS in Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related fields
- 02 Strong Rust (Embassy) and C experience in embedded systems development
- 03 Hands-on experience bringing up microcontrollers (STM32H7, ESP32, RP2040) and writing low-level drivers
- 04 Experience with motor control systems, BLDC/servo drivers, encoder interfaces, and actuator feedback loops
- 05 Experience with embedded communication protocols: SPI, I2C, CAN/CAN-FD, UART, PWM, ADC, DMA
- 06 Worked with different types of actuators (BLDC, servo, stepper, etc.)
- 07 Familiarity with real-time operating systems (FreeRTOS, Zephyr) or bare-metal development
- 08 Understanding of real-time control loops, sensor fusion, and timing-sensitive firmware
- 09 Comfortable using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG/SWD debuggers, and low-level hardware tools
- 10 (+) Experience with IMUs, tactile sensors, force sensors, or high-rate sensing pipelines
- 11 (+) Knowledge of Linux real-time systems (PREEMPT_RT, Xenomai) or FPGA-based sensor interfaces
- 12 (+) Familiarity with EtherCAT, distributed embedded networks, or safety-critical firmware
- 13 (+) Experience with ROS/ROS2, HIL pipelines, or automated hardware testing
- 14 (+) Experience building bootloaders, OTA systems, or secure firmware signing
