EmbeddedRoboticsSDE

Are you an embedded software engineer who wants to own the code that keeps robots safe and can prove it to the world? At Amazon Robotics, we're seeking an Embedded SDE to own our library of safety-critical software modules and drive them through formal certification. The Compass team is building a library of safety-critical software modules that will serve as the certified safety foundation for Amazon's entire robotics fleet. In this role, you'll own that software. Our core development team conducts R&D on novel algorithms your job is to take that R&D and translate it into production-grade, certifiable embedded software that meets the highest safety standards. You'll also work upstream, expressing requirements and constraints that the core R&D team needs to be aware of so their work can ultimately be certified. If you want to own the software that stands between robots and the people around them and take it all the way from research prototype to certified product, then this role is for you. Key job responsibilities • Own the library of safety-critical embedded software modules, taking full responsibility for their quality, maintainability, and certification readiness • Translate R&D algorithm code from the core development team into production-grade, certifiable embedded software that meets functional safety standards • Define and communicate software requirements and constraints upstream to the core R&D team, ensuring their algorithm development is compatible with certification objectives • Drive the software through the full safety certification lifecycle, producing the code, documentation, and evidence required for formal certification • Develop and maintain embedded software following safety-critical coding standards (e.g., MISRA C++, AUTOSAR) and best practices for deterministic, real-time execution • Collaborate with safety engineers, lab engineers, and the testing/quality SDE to ensure end-to-end traceability from safety requirements through implementation to
