Join Amazon Robotics" Embedded software team to tackle one of the most exciting challenges in robotics: creating intelligent safety systems that enable humans and robots to work safely side-by-side. We"re looking for embedded software engineers who want to work at the intersection of hardware and software, writing code that powers our global fleet of fulfillment robots.
Your embedded software will run on a large-scale fleet of robotics systems deployed across our global fulfillment network. The code you write directly supports warehouse associates in their daily work, enables efficient order fulfillment, and advances the capabilities of autonomous robotics in real-world operations.
In this role, you"ll collaborate across multiple engineering disciplines, working with mechanical, electrical, cloud software, fleet management, manufacturing, cybersecurity and field support teams. You"ll explore the latest development of AI and secure edge development on resource-constrained embedded systems while adhering to rigorous safety standards and implementing deterministic behavior that protects people interacting with automated robotic solutions.
Key job responsibilities
A day in the life
Engineering at Amazon Robotics is fast-paced, and your day will often interleave responding to field events with longer-term new product development. Peer teams are quick to share discoveries and new approaches that can enhance our work. Mentorship is part of everyday life at ARsenior engineers will gladly sit with you to walk through an unfamiliar tool, Slack you links to FAQs and technical wiki pages, or pair program through a tricky debugging session. Functional Safety teams provide feedback on how changes impact regulatory submissions and guide you toward the best approaches to minimize review cycles while enhancing safety.
What makes our days different:
At Amazon Robotics, we value engineers with diverse backgrounds and unique perspectives. If you"re passionate about embedded systems and excited to make an impact at global scale, we encourage you to applyeven if you don"t meet every qualification. We"re looking for strong fundamentals, curiosity, and drive. The rest, we can deliver together.
About the team
We"re a high-performing team that values technical excellence without perfectionism paralysis, collaboration over hero engineering, continuous learning and knowledge sharing, work-life balance (we build robots, not burnout) and leverages diverse perspectives (our best solutions come from varied backgrounds)
We develop embedded safety systems deployed across Amazon"s robotic fleet with safety-certified solutions that combine rigorous standards compliance with deterministic, reliable performance. Our "secret sauce" is integrating safety considerations from initial design through delivery, enabling us to meet ambitious schedules without compromising quality. As Amazon"s automation portfolio expands, our team has evolved into specialized groups united by common DNA and a shared commitment to excellence in safety-critical embedded software development.
