Mytra's robotics team is developing next-generation warehouse automation using physics-based, first-principles design
We are seeking a Robotics Controls Engineer to architect and implement advanced motion control systems that integrate sensing, perception, and actuation into reliable, high-performance robotic platforms
This role spans real-time embedded software, communication architecture, and control algorithm design to deliver precise, secure, and efficient robot motion in complex environments
You will work across mechanical, electrical, and software disciplines to push the boundaries of warehouse robotics
Architect and implement motion control frameworks for multi-axis robotic systems, including actuator control, trajectory generation, and dynamic path execution
Design and integrate communication architectures for distributed controllers, sensors, and actuators, including pub/sub messaging frameworks (e.g. , NATS, ROS2, custom protocols)
Develop, simulate, and tune control algorithms for position, velocity, torque, and force control, incorporating model-based techniques and Kalman filter–based state estimation
Lead sensor fusion and localization efforts to ensure robust, real-time state estimation in both simulated and physical environments
Define motor and sensor strategies, including hardware selection, calibration, and diagnostics, to meet performance, safety, and scalability requirements




Build and maintain simulation and automated test tools to prototype new control strategies, validate them in CI/CD, and translate them into production-ready implementations
Iterate between simulation and hardware testing to diagnose corner cases, improve algorithms, and ensure robustness in diverse real-world conditions
Deliver high-quality, maintainable code in C++ and Python for real-time and high-level control systems
Demonstrated experience in approaching challenges with a physics-based, first-principles mindset to develop innovative solutionsBS or MS in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Computer Science, or related fieldStrong background in control theory, kinematics, dynamics, and system modeling for electromechanical systemsFamiliarity with CAN, pub/sub communication frameworks, distributed control architectures, and safety-critical system design standards (ISO *****, IEC *****)Ability to debug and optimize complex electromechanical systems with limited telemetry, using both software and hardware toolsDemonstrated ability to balance control system complexity with simplicity, elegance, and robustness in production implementationsProficiency in C/C++ and/or Python for embedded and high-level control softwareExperience with motor control (BLDC, stepper, servo), sensor integration (eg. encoders, IMUs, cameras), and real-time operating systems (e.g., FreeRTOS, RT Linux, Zephyr)
