Senior Engineer in R&D
Robots have long been the subjects of our dreams, inspiring us to look towards the future. Here at Furhat Robotics, we’re working to create that future today. Do you like working with bleeding edge technology? Do you like pulling different technologies together to redefine the state of the possible? If so, you might be a fit for our team. Today, we’re looking for a senior engineer with a focus on software to join our R&D team.
The mission of our R&D team is to quickly experiment with new technologies, integrating them into our robots, designing new experiences, or creating novel new products. This team isn’t building production software, but rather finding new ways to use our products to create innovative solutions. To be successful, you'll need to be as creative as you are technical. Working with a tight knit team of experts, you'll be picking up new technology and prototyping new, fun, and interesting experiences.
