Senior Robotics Middleware Engineer - Humanoid (human)

You will own the middleware integration layer for the 4NE-1 Humanoid Software Platform , ensuring reliable communication between perception, planning, locomotion, whole-body control, manipulation, state estimation, hardware interfaces, and fleet-level services. The humanoid stack spans multiple middleware paradigms, ranging from hard real-time control loops to distributed cloud-connected robotics systems, all of which must operate seamlessly on a production humanoid robot.

Your Mission & Challenges

• ROS 2 Platform Integration: own the ROS 2 infrastructure used across the 4NE-1 software stack, including sensor and actuator interfaces, state estimation pipelines, perception systems, locomotion, manipulation, diagnostics, and fleet connectivity. Responsibilities include ROS 2 architecture, driver integration, ros2_control configuration, DDS tuning, launch system design, diagnostics, and migration across ROS 2 releases such as Humble a...
