The posting

About Origin

Origin (previously 10xConstruction) is building general-purpose autonomous robots for US construction to tackle rising costs, safety risks, and labour shortages. Our modular, multi-trade platform combines purpose-built hardware with real-time site intelligence to navigate complex environments and execute tasks with precision. Trained in high-fidelity simulation and already deployed on live sites, our robots deliver 5x faster execution, 250%+ margin expansion, and significant cost savings. Join India's most talent-dense robotics team consisting of individuals from IITs, Stanford, UCLA, etc.

About the Role

As an Embedded Software and Controls Engineer at Origin you will design and implement the control algorithms and foundational embedded software that give our robots their precision, reliability, and autonomy. This is a high-impact role offering the opportunity to build a groundbreaking product alongside a passionate, talent-dense team.

Key Responsibilities

Control System Architecture

  • Contribute to the architecture and design of robust control systems for our mobile manipulator robots.
  • Develop and implement control algorithms for precise navigation, motion control, and teleoperation modes.
  • Ensure real-time performance and reliability of all control loops.
  • Develop and tune low-latency, real-time control loops with strict timing guarantees.

Actuator & Motor Integration

  • Develop software interfaces for CAN / EtherCAT based actuators and motor drives.
  • Write and maintain drivers for motor controllers, servo motors, and stepper motors.
  • Integrate and configure SBCs (Jetson Orin, Jetson Nano, Raspberry Pi) as embedded compute nodes within the robot platform.

Embedded Compute & Firmware

  • Develop, optimize, and maintain low-level firmware and drivers for real-time performance and efficient hardware interaction.
  • Develop and maintain Linux kernel drivers for low-level interfacing with sensors and actuators.
  • Implement and debug communication protocols including I2C, UART, SPI, CAN, and Ethernet across hardware subsystems.
  • Contribute to the embedded compute platform, including Linux modifications, driver development, and CPU/resource monitoring.
  • Build and maintain monitoring and logging infrastructure to ensure system health and facilitate rapid debugging.
  • Support the Over-the-Air (OTA) update pipeline for seamless software deployment.

Rapid Prototyping & Testing

  • Prototype and test control algorithms in simulation and on physical hardware.
  • Develop and implement automated testing procedures to streamline the development process.
  • Profile, debug, and minimize latency, frequency, and jitter issues across real-time control loops and communication interfaces.
  • Diagnose and resolve software, firmware, and controls-related issues.

Collaboration & Integration

  • Work closely with the software team to integrate the electromechanical system on ROS2 and contribute to ROS2 driver development.
  • Collaborate with hardware and mechanical teams to ensure seamless integration and system-wide performance.

Required Qualifications and Skills

  • Bachelor's/Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in embedded control systems for robotic or similar applications.
  • Experience working with SBCs such as Jetson Orin, Jetson Nano, or Raspberry Pi.
  • Experience with communication protocols including I2C, UART, SPI, CAN, and Ethernet.
  • Experience working with CAN / EtherCAT based actuators.
  • Experience working with motor drivers, servo motors, and stepper motors.
  • Experience building low-latency, real-time systems.
  • Ability to profile, debug, and minimize latency, jitter, and timing issues in real-time environments.
  • Experience developing Linux kernel drivers for low-level sensor and actuator interfacing.
  • Proficiency in embedded programming in C (C++ a plus) and firmware development.
  • Understanding of RTOS and embedded Linux — desirable but not mandatory.
  • Experience with ROS/ROS2 is highly desirable.

Preferred Experiences

  • Low-level kernel development.
  • Experience working with robotic arms, AMR platforms, or mobile manipulators.
  • Development experience on NVIDIA Jetson Series SBCs for Robotics.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
