CA - Greater Vancouver Metropolitan Area
January 23, 2025

Humanoid is the first AI and robotics company in the UK, creating the world's most advanced, reliable, commercially scalable, and safe humanoid robots.
Our first humanoid robot HMND 01 is a next-gen labour automation unit, providing highly efficient services across various use cases, starting with industrial applications.

We are looking for a passionate and skilled Embedded Software Engineer (Robotics) to join our innovative team in Vancouver.

Our Mission

At Humanoid we strive to create the world's leading, commercially scalable, safe, and advanced humanoid robots that seamlessly integrate into daily life and amplify human capacity.

Vision

In a world where artificial intelligence opens up new horizons, our faith in its potential unveils a new outlook where, together, humans and machines build a new future filled with knowledge, inspiration, and incredible discoveries.
The development of a functional humanoid robot underpins an era of abundance and well-being where poverty will disappear, and people will be able to choose what they want to do.
We believe that providing a universal basic income will eventually be a true evolution of our civilization.

Solution

As the demands on our built environment rise, labour shortages loom.
With the world's workforce increasingly moving away from undesirable tasks, the manufacturing, construction, and logistics industries critical to our daily lives are left exposed.
By deploying our general-purpose humanoid robots in environments deemed hazardous or monotonous, we envision a future where human well-being is safeguarded while closing the gaps in critical global labour needs.

Perform hardware testing, validation, and troubleshooting of embedded systems.
Analyze system constraints to optimize performance and resource utilization.
Maintain detailed documentation of designs, code, and test results for traceability and technical clarity.

Expertise

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field.
Proficiency in programming languages such as C, C++, and Python.
Solid understanding of embedded systems, real-time operating systems (RTOS), and hardware-software interfaces.
Experience with communication protocols (EtherCAT, CAN, etc.) and sensor integration.
Familiarity with debugging tools like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and in-circuit debuggers.
Knowledge of safety-critical systems and standards is a strong plus.
Excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
