Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Support development of dexterous manipulation algorithms for humanoid robots, including perception, grasping, motion planning, trajectory optimization, and control. Build simulation environments in MuJoCo and Isaac Sim, test algorithms in simulated and real-world settings, integrate components with whole-body controllers, and collaborate on machine-learning-based manipulation. Contribute to research and implementation involving force control, visual/tactile servoing, dual-arm manipulation, and in-hand object manipulation.

Own full-cycle recruiting for highly technical engineering and robotics roles, from intake and custom sourcing through interviews, offers, relocation persuasion, and start date. Build passive-candidate pipelines using Boolean search, LinkedIn Recruiter, GitHub, academic networks, publications, conferences, competitor mapping, and AI tools. Partner with hiring managers, assess technical depth and motivation, manage multiple requisitions, maintain ATS data, report funnel metrics, and represent Persona AI to prospective candidates.

Coordinate recruiting operations across manufacturing, operations, and corporate hiring. Responsibilities include scheduling interviews, arranging candidate travel, managing onsite logistics, communicating with candidates and hiring teams, maintaining ATS data, coordinating hiring events, supporting offers and onboarding, and building scalable recruiting workflows and documentation.

Own full-cycle technical recruiting for manufacturing and operations roles, building candidate pipelines through LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, trade schools, referrals, and industry networks. Partner with hiring managers, deliver strong candidate experiences, track recruiting metrics, improve talent acquisition infrastructure, and support employer branding. The role is fully onsite in Houston and focuses on scaling Persona AI’s advanced manufacturing workforce.

Design, implement, and tune real-time motor and actuator control systems for humanoid robots. Develop embedded C/C++ firmware on microcontrollers or DSPs, model actuator dynamics, and apply PID, cascaded-loop, feedforward, and state-observer techniques. Bring up and characterize hardware, debug control issues with laboratory instrumentation, and collaborate with electrical, mechanical, autonomy, motion-planning, and software teams. Document control architectures and tuning procedures while supporting reliable, safe robot performance.

Design and implement autonomy and behavior coordination algorithms for industrial humanoid robots. Integrate manipulation, locomotion, and perception capabilities; develop safe, reactive plan execution using classical control and learned policies; build data curation, synthetic data generation, behavior evaluation, benchmarking, and regression-testing pipelines. The role supports simulation and deployment at live industrial sites and requires expertise in robotics autonomy, world models, NVIDIA Cosmos, and Isaac Sim.

Own the developer infrastructure supporting a robotics software organization, including large-scale CI, reproducible builds, cross-compilation, release delivery, developer environments, fleet rollouts, observability, and hybrid cloud/on-prem infrastructure. The role also manages physical lab and deployment-site systems, offline-capable registries, networking, robot updates, and secure artifact provenance.

Build full-stack robotics software connecting controls, hardware, and XR systems. Responsibilities include hardware SDK integration, low-latency data streaming over unreliable networks, motion retargeting, robot control, fleet monitoring, metrics, alerting, and rendering optimization. The role requires production Rust, Python tooling, low-level networking, embedded Linux, systems architecture, and API design, with collaboration across hardware, firmware, and XR teams.

Support PCBA design and testing, cabling and grounding prototyping, embedded software development and validation, and produce technical documentation for humanoid robotics projects while collaborating with mechanical and electrical teams.

Design and bring up highly integrated PCBAs and rigid-flex circuits for humanoid robot actuators, sensors, perception, and compute systems. Responsibilities include HDI and high-speed layout, mixed-signal and power design, signal and power integrity, board debugging, mechanical co-design, manufacturing collaboration, and embedded firmware support. The role partners across engineering and manufacturing to deliver dense, reliable electronics through production ramp.
