Robotics Software Engineer
Location : Riviera Beach, FL
Duration : Long term- Permanent
Industry : Aerospace DefenseJob OverviewWe are seeking a talented
Robotics Software Engineer to design, develop, integrate, test, and maintain software for advanced robotic systems. The ideal candidate will have strong hands-on experience with
C++, Linux, ROS, Git, and containerization technologies such as Docker or Podman.
In this role, you will work across the software development lifecycle-from requirements analysis and architecture through implementation, integration, testing, debugging, and deployment. You will collaborate closely with robotics, controls, simulation, AI/perception, and hardware teams to develop reliable software solutions for complex mission and engineering applications.
Key Responsibilities- Design, develop, integrate, test, and debug software for robotic systems and applications.
- Develop robust software solutions using C++ in a Linux-based environment.
- Develop and integrate robotics applications using ROS (Robot Operating System).
- Apply software engineering best practices throughout the complete development lifecycle.
- Use Git for source code management, version control, and collaborative development.
- Build, deploy, and manage software using Docker and/or Podman containers.
- Analyze software requirements, system capabilities, interfaces, and technical specifications.
- Troubleshoot and resolve software defects, integration issues, and system-level problems.
- Develop technical documentation, software design documentation, test procedures, and operating instructions.
- Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to integrate software with robotic hardware and external systems.
- Develop and execute unit, integration, and system-level testing.
- Ensure software development follows established engineering standards, processes, procedures, and quality practices.
- Support continuous improvement of development, integration, testing, and deployment processes.
