Description For Q4 MICE Embedded/Firmware SDE, 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, and we are seeking top-notch embedded engineers who are action-oriented, passionate about building things, and enjoy solving problems in innovative ways.

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 these 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. Occasionally, you may be involved in live debugging of systems at Fulfillment centers.

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.

Join us to make an impact on a global scale and be part of developing the future of robotics at Amazon!
