Job Description and Summary of Duties and Responsibilities
The Robotics and Interfacing Expert (Robotics Software Engineer) will be responsible for writing novel software to interface with robots and robot simulators, and connecting existing open source software to robots and robot simulators. Much of the work will involve use of simulators such as Gazebo or MORSE, and robot control software frameworks such as ROS. While this is not a hardware engineering job, a basic facility with physical robots will be useful. Strong knowledge of undergraduate engineering mathematics is important, as is an understanding of algorithms and data structures. Familiarity with C++ programming will be valuable; if your experience is in other languages you will need to learn C++ quickly. You should be familiar with object oriented design and programming. Additional work may involve C++, Java, MATLAB and/or python programming.
