Robotics Engineer (Software) (Santa Clara)

About Autonomous Healthcare

At Autonomous Healthcare, we are at the forefront of medical innovation, developing the next generation of devices that will revolutionize patient care. Our mission is to commercialize breakthrough medical technologies by leveraging cutting-edge AI and autonomous systems. We believe that the best solutions are built together, and we are looking for a key member to join our collaborative R&D team.

Job Summary

We are seeking a versatile Software Engineer to join our innovative team. In this role, you will be instrumental in developing the core software for a cutting-edge medical device. You will tackle complex challenges related to real-time data processing, computer vision, and on-device (edge) computation. This position requires a unique blend of backend and frontend expertise, bridging the gap between live camera data processing and an intuitive user interface. This is an ideal opportunity for an engineer with a passion for building robust, high-performance systems, particularly those with experience in robotics, IoT, or similar domains.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop high-performance backend services in Python for real-time data ingestion, processing, and management from multiple sensors, including cameras.
• Build and maintain a responsive and intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) for our medical device using the Qt framework (PyQt / PySide).
• Implement and optimize algorithms for on-device edge processing to ensure low latency and high throughput.
• Architect and manage the complete software stack, from low-level hardware communication to the user-facing application logic.
• Collaborate closely with hardware and research teams to integrate new features, sensors, and control systems.
• Write clean, maintainable, and thoroughly tested code, and participate actively in code reviews.
• Develop and execute unit, integration, and system tests to ensure the software is reliable, safe, and meets rigorous quality standards.
• Profile and optimize system performance, identifying and resolving bottlenecks in the data processing pipeline.
