Description
Career Opportunity for a Robotics Software Engineer in Japan!
■ Robotics Software Engineer
■ Company Overview
We combine AI and conversation design expertise, provides brands the ability to easily create and integrate automated chat experiences, transforming post, story, or ad into personalized interactive experiences.
■ Your Role and Responsibilities
●Design and build the on-robot runtime: ROS 2 nodes, task orchestration/state machines, safety guards, and recovery behaviors
●Serve learned policies on-robot and at the edge (policy servers, streaming inference, latency budgets on Jetson-class hardware)
●Integrate subsystems into one working robot: manipulation policies (Zen), navigation/SLAM, voice interaction, fleet telemetry
●Own deployment and operations tooling: containerized builds, system services, OTA updates, remote debugging of field robots
●Build the observability layer: structured logging, telemetry ingestion, incident triage for deployed robots
●Work with FDEs to turn field failures into runtime fixes and with the Data Platform team to capture every run as training data
■ Experience and Qualifications
●5+ years of software engineering, with 2+ years shipping software that ran on physical robots or embedded/edge systems in production
●Strong modern C++ and Python
●Production ROS / ROS 2 experience on Linux (real robots, not only simulation)
●Real-time thinking: latency budgets, lock-free queues where needed, graceful degradation, watchdogs
●Docker, Git, CI/CD as daily tools; comfort debugging a robot over SSH in the field
●Working English (team documentation is in English); Japanese is a plus for field work
■ Additional Preferred Qualifications
●On-device ML inference (TensorRT, ONNX Runtime, GPU serving) and Jetson/edge optimization
●Experience integrating learned policies (VLA/BC) into control stacks
●Fleet management, OTA update systems, or remote operations tooling
●Voice/multimodal interaction pipelines
●Safety frameworks for robots operating around people
Why This Role
●OS is where the whole company converges: your code decides whether hardware (D1) plus intelligence equals a robot a hospital can rely on.
●Field feedback in days: robots you deploy run real shifts at real customer sites in Japan.
■ Good Reasons to Join
● Japanese proficiency is required (JLPT N1 / Business level)
● Work with International team members
■ Work Location
Tokyo, Japan
Details will be provided during the meeting.
