About the Role

Agility Robotics is seeking a Staff Robotics Architect - Embedded Systems to create the technical vision for our network, control, compute, and software integration hardware for our humanoid robotics platforms. This role reports directly to the Principal Hardware Architect to develop new products and major improvements to existing platforms. In this technical leadership role, you will serve as the lead for Robot Embedded Systems architecture, partnering closely with engineers across systems, mechanical, electrical, software, perception, safety, and control teams as needed to define and evolve the hardware architecture of our robotic systems.

You will be responsible for ensuring our core hardware subsystems — ranging from sensing and compute to control, actuation, and safety— integrate with our software stack into cohesive, performant, reliable, and scalable systems for our humanoid robots and fleets. These designs will meet the needs of our product vision and software/skills that drive our innovations. This role is ideal for a senior level hardware designer with the software and firmware understanding required to architect complex integrated systems. Previous roles could include Electrical Engineer, Embedded Systems, Platform SW or Controls engineer with a proven track record in robotic system design, control, and architecture, experience in actuated mobile robotics, ideally including humanoid or legged robotics, and strong data driven decision making.
