Position: Embedded Software and Controls

Location: Bangalore

Working Days: 5 (Mon-Fri)

Experience Required: 8+ Years

About the role

As the Lead Embedded Software and Controls Engineer at Our Client you will lead the design and implementation of the control algorithms and foundational embedded software that give our robots their precision, reliability, and autonomy. This is a founding team role, offering the unique opportunity to not only build a groundbreaking product but also to shape the culture and direction of a rapidly growing company.

Key Responsibilities

Control System Architecture:
- Lead the architecture and design of robust and reliable control systems for our mobile manipulator robots.
- Develop and implement control algorithms (e.g., force control, tension control) for precise manipulation, navigation, and tool use, including robust teleoperation modes.
- Ensure the real-time performance and reliability of all control loops.
Actuator & Sensor Integration:
- Develop software for the control of motors, actuators, and other drive components.
- Implement algorithms for sensor synchronization, data fusion, and calibration (e.g., IMU, Vision, Depth).
- Develop kinematic models and implement control strategies for complex robotic arms.
Embedded Compute & Firmware:
- Develop, optimize, and ensure the reliability of low-level firmware and drivers for real-time performance and efficient hardware interaction.
- Take ownership of the embedded compute platform, including Linux modifications, robust driver development, and CPU/resource monitoring.
- Build and maintain a comprehensive monitoring and logging infrastructure to ensure system health and facilitate rapid debugging.
- Develop and maintain the Over-the-Air (OTA) update pipeline for seamless software deployment.
Rapid Prototyping & Testing:
- Lead the prototyping and testing of control algorithms, both in simulation and on physical hardware.
- Develop and implement automated testing procedures to streamline the development process.
- Diagnose and resolve complex software, firmware, and controls-related issues.
Collaboration & Integration:
- Work closely with the software team to integrate the electromechanical system on ROS2 and contribute to ROS2 driver development.
- Collaborate with the hardware and mechanical teams to ensure seamless integration and system-wide performance.
- Collaborate with other teams (e.g., perception) to ensure
