About the role

Staff Software Engineer role focused on developing safety-critical software for Mytra's robotic fleet, owning safety-relevant software from concept to production across localization, fail-safe communications, and motion-stopping, with emphasis on safe design, real-time performance, and cross-team collaboration.

Responsibilities

  • Own projects such as signal redundancy, sensor fusion, safety-critical state estimation, and fail-safe wireless communications
  • Implement highly performant, real-time software for critical safety functions on robots that mitigate both machine and human hazards
  • Cross-collaboration with computer vision / firmware / systems teams to realize safety goals and deliver safety-critical software in a scalable and agile environment
  • Select and integrate the safety-relevant toolchain, including safety-rated or qualified compilers, static analysis, and coding-standard tooling
  • Contribute to HARA and software DFMEA from the implementation side, informing the safety analysis with realistic failure modes and mitigations
  • Build robust diagnostic tools to detect, reproduce, and root-cause faults in the field
  • Mentor software developers and contribute to increased test coverage and coding best practices across the stack

Qualifications

  • BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, or equivalent
  • Experience in taking in-house safety-critical software from concept to production
  • Strong experience with C++ and Python
  • Demonstrated safety-critical software development experience, ideally under a recognized functional-safety standard (IEC 61508, ISO 13849, ISO 3691-4, ISO 26262, DO-178C, EN 50128, IEC 62304, or similar)
  • Experience with embedded and real-time systems (RTOS or bare-metal), working close to the hardware
  • Experience participating in HARA and software DFMEA
  • Experience with coding standards and their toolchains — MISRA and static analysis (e.g. Polyspace, Coverity, LDRA, Klocwork)
  • Understanding of electromechanical systems and how hardware changes affect software and vice-versa
  • Experience with wireless communication technologies in an embedded context (Wi-Fi, UWB, BLE, or similar RF)
  • Experience delivering safety-relevant software in a fast-moving, iterative environment
  • The seniority and credibility to push back constructively both against under-engineering and over-prescription.
