Job Description
Direct message the job poster from Ora Apps Inc.
- Architect and implement real-time robotic control loops in Python with deterministic performance
- Extend and optimize CPython internals (GIL modeling, garbage collector zones, bytecode tracing) for
robotics use cases.
• Build high-performance Python bridges using Cython, PyO3, and native extensions to interface with
embedded systems.
• Develop and deploy control systems implementing PID, LQR, and MPC in production robotic
applications.
- Engineer sensor fusion pipelines integrating IMU, LiDAR, and computer vision streams.
- Integrate Python with SPI, I2C, CAN buses and coordinate with RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr) for real-time
operation.
- Design safety-critical robotics software in compliance with ISO 26262, DO-178C, IEC 61508.
- Create failover logic, watchdogs, and fault injection frameworks to ensure resilience in deployed
robots.
- Lead the development of digital twins, motion planning, and middleware for dynamic robot fleets.
- Collaborate with cross-functional research teams in autonomy, perception, and embedded
Required Qualifications
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or Electrical Engineering (PhD
preferred).
• 8-12 years total experience in software engineering, with at least 6+ years in robotics-focused Python
development.
• Proven track record in designing, deploying, and controlling real robots (drones, manipulators,
autonomous vehicles).
