Robotics Software Engineer

TL;DR This role is for you if you thrive on variety and love tackling the messy, real-world challenges that come from integrating software with hardware.

You’ll also be passionate about bringing robots to life.

No two days will be the same, but you can expect to:

• Solve challenging software problems end-to-end: spec, implement, test, and maintain robotics systems.
• Jump into unfamiliar software domains at breakneck speed - one month you might be optimising SLAM algorithms and the next, developing new navigation algorithms.
• Collaborate closely with multi-disciplinary engineers, product, and customer teams to iterate and improve solutions.
• Deliver real-world impact, today, using cutting-edge robotics.

At P9R7, we’re building robots that can handle the messy, unpredictable and chaotic real world!

We believe that by deploying today, we reveal second-order effects and edge cases that can’t be seen in the lab or the sim.

Our mission: become the UK’s go-to applied AI robotics team - and we’ll go above and beyond to get there.

What we actually do:

• Build AI models and hardware that let robots work safely alongside humans - lifting, moving, and getting stuff done better and faster.
• Spend lots of time on Customer sites, to better understand and solve for the messy chaos of most environments.
• Think 10+ years ahead, reimagining manual labour and creating robots that become complementary assistants for labour intensive and physically demanding tasks.

We’re a small, dynamic team from Amazon, InstaDeep, Imperial, UCL, and Cambridge to name a few, united by one of the founders of Magic Pony (acquired by Twitter).

We’re hiring a Robotics Software Engineer to own a key part of our robotics system end-to-end.
