  • Collaborate closely with your pod team and cross-functional partners to ship features and resolve issues in production.
  • Contribute to expanding Gather AI's product portfolio as the team grows into new platforms and environments.

What We're Looking For

  • Experience with ROS or ROS2 (ROS2 required).
  • Proficiency in C++ and/or Python for robotics software development.
  • Experience working on integrated hardware/software robotics systems with a minimum comfort level across both domains.
  • Strong analytical and critical thinking skills for root cause analysis and solving complex system-level problems.
  • Ability to generate, process, and interpret data from robotic systems.
  • Self-motivated with the ability to work independently and drive problems to resolution.
  • BS or MS in Robotics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field; strong internship or lab/project experience is valued for early-career candidates.
  • Linux proficiency.

Nice to Have

  • Experience developing software using CI/CD practices with code review and pull requests.
  • Familiarity with AI tools for system analysis and software generation.
  • Experience in GPS-denied indoor environments such as aerial systems or warehouses.

Technical Stack

  • ROS2
  • C++
