Job Description

Datavault AI is looking for a Robotics Engineer to work on our Humanoid Robots. This role will primarily be focused on enabling our use of Robots for use at the Event Citadel subsidiary of Datavault. A good candidate will have a deep understanding of programming movement and control to allow a robot to open a door and escort a person to a specific location. Afterwards, the robot would need to return to the door and verify if a person can enter a given space. The robot will need to scan Passes and reject people who are not allowed.

Key Responsibilities

• Mechanical Design: Architecting high-degree-of-freedom (DOF) structures, including robotic arms, legs for bipedal locomotion, and dexterous hand systems.
• Locomotion & Control: Developing and implementing algorithms for dynamic stability, gait, and whole-body control (e.g., ZMP, LIPM) to ensure the robot can walk and balance.
• Manipulation: Designing sensors and actuators for fine motor skills, object grasping, and tactile feedback.
• System Integration: Merging perception (computer vision, LiDAR), motion planning, and hardware components into a unified, reliable platform.
• Testing & Validation: Using simulation tools (like Gazebo, Isaac Sim, or Mujoco) and physical prototypes to debug and optimize performance.

Qualifications

• Requires a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, or Computer Science.
• 7+ years of experience in robotics or related fields, with expertise expected of a senior engineer.
• Proficiency in C++ and Python is essential for core control and perception libraries.
• Proven experience as a senior robotics engineer, owning complex systems from concept to deployment.
• Understanding of kinematics, dynamics, sensor fusion, and increasingly, AI/Machine Learning for motion control.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary and benefits package.
• A fast-paced, high-impact work environment.
• Opportunity to work closely with executive leadership.
• The chance to work with cutting-edge technologies and make a significant impact.
• A culture of innovation, ownership, and growth.
