Job description:

### **About Mbodi** Join Mbodi AI (YC X25), an AI robotics startup founded by two former Googlers committed to pushing the boundaries of intelligent robots. Mbodi is an embodied AI platform that makes robots learn like humans, with natural language. So anyone can teach robots new skills by talking to them and execute the learned skills reliably in production, in minutes. We are pioneering the next wave of robotics, where advanced generative models meet real-world applications. Backed by top investors and already working with global industrial partners (e.g., ABB), we’re redefining what’s possible in robotics and automation. We’re looking for a **Founding Robotics Software Engineer** to join our core team. You’ll help architect and build the full stack that powers how robots see, think, and act. As a founding team member, you’ll play a critical role in shaping our culture and mission from the ground up. ### **What You’ll Do** * Build the core infrastructure that powers perception, planning, and control in our AI-driven robotic systems * Design systems and interfaces between AI models, robotic hardware, and human operators, working across the stack from robot-facing services to real-time agent orchestration. * Collaborate closely with machine learning and robotic engineers to ship production-ready systems * Help define and shape our engineering culture, roadmap, and processes ### **What We’re Looking For** * 2+ years of professional robotics software engineering experience, or equivalent depth through exceptional projects/startups. * Strong experience with Python and proven track record building production-grade systems and maintaining them at scale. * Experience building and scaling real-time systems data pipelines or experience working and integration AI/ML models. * Experience with robotics frameworks (e.g., ROS/ROS2), distributed systems, and real-time control. * Comfort working across system boundaries (e.g., ML, robotics, cloud, hardware) * High agency and bias toward action — able to move quickly with clear code and ownership * Adaptable, execution-focused, and thrives in the fast pace and ambiguity of startup life ### **Compensation** * Salary: $100K - $250K * Equity: 0.50% - 2.00%
