Robotics Algorithms Engineer, Manipulation & Control
Build the Path Forward
At Path Robotics, we’re attacking a trillion dollar opportunity - doing things that have never been done before to support an industry hurting from a lack of skilled labor. Big, hard problems are what Path tackles every day, and our people are our greatest asset to get that job done. Our intelligent, hardworking team of people do the impossible every single day, yet remain incredibly kind, humble, and always ready to support one another.
We are building an elite robotics team to solve real-time, high-accuracy manipulation — making a robot arm and end-effector do precise physical work in the real world, from live sensor feedback, on platforms that are never perfectly calibrated. We are looking for an exceptional hands-on engineer to own the control-and-estimation heart of that system: the closed loop that turns what the robot senses into accurate motion, in real time, robustly, on real hardware — and to set its technical direction as it grows.
What you'll do
- Own the real-time closed loop from sensing to motion, hands-on: state estimation, feedback and predictive control, and the correction of end-effector trajectories to hit accuracy targets under uncertainty, noise and latency.
- Make hard, honest engineering calls about what can and cannot be es
