Role:
Robotics Engineer – Autonomous Drones, AI Agents & Speech-Control Systems
Location: Austin, Texas (with some travel)
Employment Type: Full-time
About the Role
We are seeking a Robotics Engineer to design, build, and deploy autonomous systems with a primary focus on aerial robots (UAS/drones) and intelligent AI agents. A core element of this role is developing speech-driven control interfaces and natural-language command systems that allow humans to interact intuitively with robotic platforms. You will work across perception, planning, controls, and voice interfaces, including deployment on NVIDIA Jetson hardware.
What You’ll Do
- Design, prototype, and test autonomous drone platforms and robotic systems
- Develop speech recognition and natural-language command pipelines for robot control
- Integrate ASR (automatic speech recognition) and LLM-based agent behaviors for mission command
- Deploy and optimize AI workloads on NVIDIA Jetson (Nano, Xavier, Orin)
- Build human-robot interaction workflows enabling hands-free, voice-based tasking
- Integrate sensors such as IMUs, GPS, LiDAR, cameras, and onboard compute modules
- Develop simulation and real-world validation environments
- Conduct field testing and iterate autonomy and speech command robustness
- Ensure adherence to aviation and safety regulatory standards
Preferred Experience
- Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Robotics, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, CS, or related field
- Hands-on experience with drones/UAS or mobile robotic platforms
- Strong experience with NVIDIA Jetson platforms and Jet Pack SDK
- Experience with automatic speech recognition (ASR) and keyword spotting
- Familiarity with LLMs or conversational AI for agent command generation
- Proficiency in ROS/ROS2, C++ and/or Python
- Background in controls, motion planning, or SLAM
Package
- $160,000 + Bonus
- Equity (early stage)
- Strong PTO
- 401k
- Life Insurance
- Short/Long-Term Disability, Wellness Programs.
