Company background
Our client is a low-cost, swarm robotics company for industry and defense.
They see a world of ubiquitous low-cost robots transforming almost all aspects of society, but we see an urgent need in the defense industry.
They focus on building swarms of robots that incorporate a low-cost BOM, an autonomous stack optimized for off the shelf components, and a global planner that enables swarm capabilities for groups of robots to accomplish sophisticated tasks.
Their first product is a defense application building Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs), collectively termed - Attritable, Networked, Tactical Swarm (ANTS).
The Founders have decades of experience in self-driving cars and trucks, humanoids, and UAVs with experience from NASA, JPL, Cruise, Embark, McKinsey, Amazon, and the CIA.
Job description
Our client is on the forefront of deploying unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) swarms for defense applications and is seeking a highly skilled Software Infrastructure Engineer to join our dynamic team.
