The AirLab at the Robotics Institute at CMU is now recruiting candidates for an exciting opportunity to develop cutting edge autonomous flying robots. This Software/Robotics Engineer position focusses on software engineering for robotic systems. The AIR lab focusses on autonomy for unmanned aerial vehicles of various scales (Full-scale helicopters to small size multi rotors) as well as autonomous off-road driving vehicles. Our work pushes the state of the art in autonomous flying vehicles and off-road driving and we are looking for individuals that share our vision, are self-motivated, quick learners. The AirLab is part of the Robotics Institute (RI) at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU.
We work on several projects for government contractors with fast-paced engineering cycles where design, build, test, and analyze the results of these new systems. Our work atmosphere enables individuals to collaborate on exciting projects, work with real systems, and test their ideas.
We recruit individuals with a solid background in practical experience, creativity, and motivation.
A candidate is required to have a strong software background with experience in ROS2, DDS, Linux, C++, Python and several Robotics related key libraries (such as OpenCV, Eigen, CGAL, boost.
Additionally, experience with DevOps tools such as ansible, terraform, git, GitHub actions, and other infrastructure is a plus.
Experience in autonomy-related algorithms such as perception, planning, or control (in particular related to aerial vehicles) is strongly desired. The air lab develops large complex robotics systems that need solid systems to be reliable and to enable efficient experimentation. We test our systems in real-world deployments in a wide range of scenarios.
While a background on some of the algorithms is desired the focus for this position is really on strong software skills in Robotics-related areas.
Our software architecture is based on Linux, ROS2/DDS, C++, and Python (with deep learning libraries) so knowledge in these areas is a plus. Ideal candidates have direct experience building and debugging real robot systems.
Some electronics and hardware related skills such as soldering, 3D design, 3D printing are a bonus
