Field Robotics Engineer: ROS, C++, Python
Standard Subsea is building the offshore robotics company. We are developing a fleet of unmanned surface vessels and subsea vehicles to put operations capacity where it's needed, without crewed vessels, without mobilization delays, and at a fraction of the cost.
The Role
We are hiring a Robotics Engineer to work hands-on across software, hardware, and system integration for our marine robotics platform. This is a generalist robotics role focused on making real systems work in the field.
You will contribute to core robotics functionality including sensor integration, controls, communications, and actuator-level behavior on physical platforms. You’ll work closely with mechanical, electrical, and software engineers to turn prototypes into reliable, deployable systems.
Responsibilities
Develop and maintain robotics software in C++ and Python using ROS/ROS2
Integrate and operate point cloud–producing sensors (lidar, radar, sonar) on physical systems
Implement and debug robotics communication interfaces (CAN, serial, Ethernet, etc.)
Build and maintain control logic including state machines, PID loops, and feedback control
Work hands-on with motors, actuators, and low-level hardware interfaces
Support system integration, bench testing, and field testing on real vehicles
Collaborate closely with mechanical, electrical, and test engineers to close integration gaps
Qualifications
Degree in Robotics, Mechatronics, Computer Engineering, or related field
1–2 years of industry or research experience post-graduation (or equivalent hands-on work)
Strong proficiency in C++, Python, and modern ROS-based workflows
Experience working with real robotic hardware, not just simulation
Solid understanding of controls fundamentals and embedded system behavior
Comfortable debugging across software, electrical, and mechanical boundaries
