Embedded/Firmware Software Engineer, Amazon Robotics Firmware Team

Join a group of the brightest engineers to develop the next generation of Amazon's world-class robotics. Amazon Robotics Teams create and manage the largest fleet of industrial autonomous robots in the world. We are seeking top-notch embedded engineers who are action-oriented, passionate about building things, and enjoy solving problems in innovative ways.

You will work with a multidisciplinary team to rapidly bring groundbreaking ideas to full-scale production devices that are trusted by thousands of associates at Amazon's facilities around the world. As part of the Embedded and Firmware teams, you'll be involved in the development and maintenance of the software that powers our robotic fleet, including embedded Linux, computer vision, navigation, obstacle detection, motor control, WiFi, Safety, Security, and more.

Key responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain robotic systems used in possibly the world's largest autonomous robot fleet.
• Learn and master multiple components including networking/wifi, security navigation, obstacle detection, motor control, and a variety of sensors.
• Participate in the architecture of complex systems and collaborate with coworkers to realize the team's goals.
• Provide feedback in the peer review process and effectively communicate with technical leadership.
• Create solutions that strike the balance between world-class performance and world-class safety.

A day in the life: As an Embedded / Firmware Software Engineer at Amazon Robotics, you will work with cross-functional teams to develop, test, and debug our robotic systems. The development process will involve participating in the design process, analysis of potential hazards, and implementation of new products and features. Testing efforts involve either writing automated tests to vet newly created features or live testing to debug and root cause issues. In addition to normal development and testing responsibilities, software engineers are occasionally involved in live debugging our systems at Fulfillment centers.

About the team: The firmware team is comprised of super-smart doers who work passionately to apply cutting-edge advances in robotics and solve real-world challenges. We take our responsibility for safety seriously but strive to produce the right product that also gives us the performance we need. We pay attention to the details so others don't have to and strive to make systems that are natural and intuitive.
