Job Description

We’re looking for a Staff Embedded Perception Engineer specializing in tactile sensing to help advance the next generation of robotic manipulation. In this role, you will design and develop sensing systems that allow robots to physically interact with the world, transforming raw tactile signals into meaningful data that drives intelligent robot behavior.

You will work at the intersection of embedded systems, sensing hardware, signal processing, simulation, and robotics, developing high-bandwidth data acquisition systems and firmware that enable robots to perceive contact, force, and interaction with their environment. This role requires hands-on experimentation and close collaboration with teams across electrical, mechanical, and software engineering to build sensing solutions that improve the capabilities and reliability of robotic platforms operating in dynamic environments.
