Agility’s commercially deployed humanoids operate alongside teams in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers—tackling physically demanding and repetitive tasks while enabling workers to focus on higher-value work. With industry-leading safety standards and years of proven deployment data, we're pioneering a new era of automation that enhances human potential. About the Role We are looking for a Robotics Software Engineer III to join our Skills team and develop manipulation behaviors for humanoid robots. You will own a task vertical from definition through reliable on-robot execution, working across learned and classical manipulation approaches. You will run our LfD flywheel end-to-end for manipulation tasks: collecting data, defining operator instructions, improving data quality, setting up grading rubrics, training policies, evaluating failures, and iterating until the behavior is robust enough for real deployments. This role is well suited for an engineer who enjoys working close to the robot and being methodical about failure analysis. You will replay logs, identify weak points in the state distribution, root-cause failures, and build the engineering around policies and primitives so the robot can execute complete workflows. Key Responsibilities Own a task vertical from definition through reliable on-robot execution Work across learned and classical manipulation methods Run iterative policy improvements across data collection, annotation, training, evaluation, and deployment Work closely with teleoperators to improve data quality and operator instructions Develop grading rubrics and evaluation workflows that make progress measurable, where success gets measured by policies that act more reliably on real robots in the real world. Root cause failures using logs, replays, and analysis of state distributions Integrate learned policies with higher-level skills so they can execute inside complete robot workflows Build general manipulation capabilities that reduce the amount of task-specific tuning Experiment with off-the-shelf manipulation and perception models Partner with the ML team that owns the base large behavior model, LfD flywheel, and training recipes used to post-train policies for specific manipulation tasks About You MS or PhD in Robotics, AI, Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related field 2+ years of experience deploying manipulation behaviors on real robots Strong software engineering fundamentals and proficiency in Python Experience with robot data collection, training, and testing on hardware to perform manipulation tasks Familiarity with at least some of the following: grasp planning, imitation learning, reinforcement learning, force control, teleoperation, robot sensors, visual servoing, and object perception Strong analytical, experimental, and debugging skills Comfortable working hands-on with robotic systems in a lab environment This a hybrid position based out of one of our Pittsburgh, PA, Salem, OR or Fremont, CA offices. The final salary offered to a successful candidate will be dependent on several factors that may include but are not limited to: market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. This range may change based on geographical location and may be modified in the future. Anticipated Salary Range $155,000 — $241,000 USD In addition to base pay, our competitive total rewards package consists of the following for full-time employees: 401(k) Plan: Includes a 6% company match. Equity: Company stock options. Insurance Coverage: 100% company-paid medical, dental, vision, and short/long-term disability insurance for employees.

Time Off: Exempt Employees: Flexible, unlimited PTO and 12 company holidays, including a winter shutdown. Non-Exempt Employees: 10 vacation days, paid sick leave, and 12 company holidays, including a winter shutdown, annually. On-Site Perks: Catered lunches four times a week and a variety of healthy snacks and refreshments at our Salem and Pittsburgh locations. Parental Leave: Generous paid parental leave programs. Work Environment: A culture that supports flexible work arrangements. Growth Opportunities: Professional development and tuition reimbursement programs. Relocation Assistance: Provided for eligible roles. Annual Discretionary Bonus: Provided for eligible roles. All of our roles are U.S.-based.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
