Jobs at Ghost Robotics

Leads and scales U.S. business development across military, government, and public safety markets. Develops growth strategies, identifies funding and contract opportunities, manages government relations and strategic partnerships, navigates DoD procurement, oversees pipeline and procurement processes, coordinates statements of work with engineering and operations, and builds high-performing business development teams.

Design, implement, and deploy real-time manipulation pipelines for multi-DOF arms on legged robots. Develop task and motion planning, grasping, control, and simulation workflows, debug across simulation and hardware, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and own performance from architecture through hardware validation.

Lead electrical architecture for critical subsystems of a rugged legged UGV. Drive PCB schematic and layout from prototype to volume production, design power and BMS solutions, integrate diverse sensors and compute modules, debug hardware in lab and field, mentor junior engineers, and coordinate with firmware, mechanical, controls, and contract manufacturers.

Design, implement, and optimize SLAM, localization, and computer vision pipelines for real robots. Fuse multi-sensor data (cameras, IMUs, lidars), build estimation algorithms, evaluate performance on real-world data, and produce production-quality, well-tested code integrated with ROS/ROS2. Collaborate with controls and planning teams and contribute to datasets, tooling, and evaluation frameworks.

Design, implement, and maintain high-quality C++ (C++17/20) robotics software. Improve build systems (CMake), configure GitLab CI/CD, maintain Linux development environments, write unit/integration tests, profile and optimize performance, collaborate with controls and hardware engineers, participate in code reviews, and support tooling and CI infrastructure to keep development fast and reliable.

Design, build, and maintain embedded Linux environments and kernels across hardware platforms. Tasks include kernel patching, cross-compilation, networking, system diagnostics, automation, and collaboration with hardware, software, and QA teams to integrate applications with embedded OS platforms.
