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 Agility Robotics is building the future of work through humanoid robots that operate in human environments. In this position, you will own and drive the development of critical low-level software capabilities that power our state-of-the-art humanoid robots, improving the robustness, diagnostics, safety, and scalability of our systems. You will help define technical direction, architect solutions across hardware and software boundaries, and partner closely with cross-functional teams to bring new robotic capabilities from early prototypes into reliable, production-ready systems. You will also be on the front line of robot development, building up brand-new prototypes and leading complex technical efforts that transform piles of parts into functional, testable systems. About The Work Own the design, development, and evolution of C++ software components that power our robots, interfacing with OS drivers and hardware to enable high-bandwidth, low-latency control Drive technical direction and architecture decisions for hardware interface software, balancing performance, reliability, maintainability, and scalability Work with cross-disciplinary teams to solve complex problems involving the integration of software, electrical, mechanical, and robotic systems Debug complex cross-domain problems and establish best practices for diagnostics, observability, and failure handling Integrate diverse computing systems through a variety of communication media, such as WiFi, networking, serial, and industrial fieldbus Write performant, well-tested, maintainable, and well-documented C++ software Mentor and provide technical guidance to other engineers while raising the engineering bar across the team About You MS in robotics, computer science, electrical engineering, or related field with 8+ years of industry experience (or equivalent experience) Strong expertise writing modern C++ (17, 20) for complex, performance-sensitive systems Demonstrated ability to design and deliver large-scale software systems with significant hardware/software integration complexity Deep understanding of software engineering best practices for writing performant, maintainable, and reliable production systems Proficient in using and programming for recent Linux systems Extensive experience writing and debugging software for hardware-in-the-loop systems Experience debugging cross-domain (i.e. electrical, mechanical, and software) problems with electro-mechanical systems Experience with implementation of automation fieldbuses such as EtherCAT, CAN, Profinet, etc. (EtherCAT is highly desirable) Ability to lead technical discussions, influence engineering decisions, and communicate effectively across disciplines Authorization to work in the USA Bonus Points Experience developing real-time or low-latency systems Experience writing C++ code for embedded systems Experience with electronic circuit debugging tools (e.g. multimeters, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers) Knowledge of brushless electric motors and motor control Knowledge of networking protocols and network configuration in a Linux environment (i.e. systemd / network) Experience with Python 3.6+ Familiarity with standard agile and software development processes (issue tracking tools (Jira), feature branching, version control (Git), continuous integration and deployment) This a hybrid position based out of one of our Fremont, CA office.

Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.
144.883Jobs
31.687IN
81%EN
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.
