- Experience with one or more of the following: Optimal Control, Model-Predictive Control, State Estimation, Control Systems Theory
- Strong software experience in modern C++ and Python
- Familiarity with standard agile development tools and practices, including Jira, Git, feature branching, CI/CD workflows
Responsibilities
- Solve whole-body robot coordination problems (including modeling, simulation, estimation, compensation) related to robust execution of manipulation trajectories and teleoperation
- Design and implement high-performance control algorithms for real-time on-robot execution
- Develop simulation and hardware experiments; perform failure analysis to evaluate and improve software reliability
- Collaborate with the Test team to expose, analyze and solve hardware issues
- Create compelling demonstrations that push Digit's capabilities to its limits
Other
- MS or Ph.D. in robotics, computer science, or related field or have equivalent industry experience
- Authorization to work in the USA
- Flexible, unlimited PTO and 10 company holidays, including a winter shutdown
- 401(k) Plan with a 6% company match
