Robotics SWE, Diagnostics

About this role

Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain the diagnostic framework embedded in robotics software stack, enabling both autonomous and on-demand manual diagnostic scans.
• Contribute to the diagnostic data schema, ensuring efficient, standardized, and human-readable reporting of fault codes, event logs, and status checks. Ensure the scalability of the data schema, and optimize it for use by both on-robot systems and cloud-based analytics tools.
• Work closely with hardware and integration teams to develop embedded diagnostic tests that surface robot hardware issues, abnormal sensor behavior (e.g., drift, noise, and communication failures), battery, power or motor anomalies, and transient firmware glitches.
• Collaborate with the Infrastructure team and build the data pipeline responsible for reliably collecting, storing and processing high volumes of diagnostic data from the robot fleet.
• Ensure diagnostics generate clear, prioritized, and contextualized reports that summarize the state of the robot, enabling engineers to quickly understand the root cause of an abnormality without extensive log diving.
