Apprentice - Embedded Software & Controls
About Origin
Origin (previously 10xConstruction) is building general-purpose autonomous robots for US construction to tackle rising costs, safety risks, and labour shortages. Our modular, multi-trade platform combines purpose-built hardware with real-time site intelligence to navigate complex environments and execute tasks with precision. Trained in high-fidelity simulation and already deployed on live sites, our robots deliver 5x faster execution, 250%+ margin expansion, and significant cost savings. Join India’s most talent-dense robotics team consisting of individuals from IITs, Stanford, UCLA, etc.
About the role
The Apprentice role at Origin is for high-potential early-career engineers who are ready to contribute immediately. This is not a passive learning role; you will be writing production code from Day 1. You will be assigned specific modules (e.g., a specific sensor driver, a safety monitor, or a diagnostic tool) and expected to deliver robust solutions under the guidance of Senior Engineers.
Requirements
Key Responsibilities
- Module Development:
- Develop C++ drivers for auxiliary sensors and actuators within the ROS 2 framework.
- Implement state machines for robot subsystems (e.g., gripper logic, battery management).
- Optimize existing code for performance and readability.<
