Role Overview

At AIRoA, we leverage third-party hardware for research purposes while simultaneously developing our own humanoids, dual-arm robots, robotic hands, and data collection devices in-house.

This position is not limited to maintaining or troubleshooting existing robots. Its mission is to build a reliable robotics foundation that operates stably in the real world, covering everything from the low-level layers of physical robots to system integration in order to enable robotics AI research, evaluation, and data collection. You will work closely with the Research, Robotics, Mechanical, and Electrical teams.

Specifically, you will be involved in areas that directly affect the real-world performance and reliability of robots, including motors, sensors, communications, power systems, control cycles, safety monitoring, logging, calibration, and diagnostic functions.

Responsibilities**

• Design, implement, and verify firmware and embedded software for humanoids, dual-arm robots, robotic hands, and teleoperation systems
• Control devices such as motors, sensors, actuators, and communication modules
• Develop robotics control platforms using MCUs, SoCs, Linux-based embedded systems, RTOS, and related technologies
• Design and implement inter-device communication using CAN, UART, SPI, I2C, USB, Ethernet, and other protocols
• Develop logging and diagnostic functions for sensor values, joint angles, torque, current, temperature, error states, and other system data
• Design interfaces between low-level control layers and higher-level robotics software platforms such as ROS / ROS 2
• Ensure the stability and reproducibility required for teleoperation, leader–follower systems, and data collection pipelines
• Conduct real-robot testing, failure analysis, root-cause investigation, and design improvements to prevent recurrence
• Integrate systems in collaboration with Mechanical, Electrical, AI, Robotics, and Cloud teams
• Improve the reliability, operability, and scalability of robotic systems used in research projects

ポジション概要

AIRoAでは、研究用途に他社製ハードウェアを活用しながら、同時に自社でもヒューマノイド、双腕ロボット、ロボットハンド、データ収集用デバイスの開発を進めています。
