Requirements and responsibilities
About NominalNominal is building the software infrastructure powering the world’s most advanced hardware systems — from spacecraft and autonomous vehicles to next-generation industrial machines. Our platform ingests high-rate telemetry, validates complex autonomy software in real time, and enables engineers to iterate faster without sacrificing safety or precision. We’re a small, fast-moving team of engineers and operators who own problems end-to-end, work across disciplines, and thrive on challenges at the intersection of hardware and software.As a dual-use platform, we serve top-tier commercial and defense customers, including the U.S. Navy, United States Air Force, Shield AI, and Anduril. We’re backed by Sequoia, General Catalyst, Founders Fund, Lux Capital, and Lightspeed Ventures. Our team draws experience from SpaceX, Palantir, Anduril, Applied Intuition, and other leading companies united by a common mission: enabling hardware engineers to push the boundaries of advanced technology with speed, safety, and precision.As Roboticist-in-Residence, YoullBring deep robotics expertise to Nominal’s test and autonomy stack. You’ll serve as the in-house expert for robotic system integration and perception pipelines, helping bridge the gap between advanced robotics systems and real-world test infrastructure. You’ll work hands-on across our customer base—drones, UGVs, manipulators, and more—accelerating their ability to validate autonomy and perception using Nominal Connect.This role is highly technical, customer-facing, and exploratory: a mix of R&D, field deployment, and product shaping. You should feel at home debugging CAN bus issues on a flight controller, optimizing reinforcement learning loop performance, or visualizing test runs in Nominal Connect and complementary tools like Foxglove, Rerun, or Mujoco.
Optionally, you can add more information later (benefits, pre-screening questions, etc.)
