Teams at Boston Dynamics

Design and develop ruggedized mechanical subsystems for Spot robots from concept through mass production. Own architecture, prototyping, manufacturing transition, documentation, verification, failure analysis, cost reduction, and corrective actions. Collaborate with electrical, manufacturing, operations, compliance, and test teams while using CAD, FEA, tolerance analysis, GD&T, and production engineering practices.

Lead systems engineering for safety-critical embedded robotic platforms. Responsibilities include defining architectures and firmware requirements, maintaining requirements-to-verification traceability, coordinating safety firmware and test teams, developing HIL/SIL validation plans, conducting HARA, FMEA, and FTA analyses, and compiling safety-case evidence. The role bridges hardware, firmware, and testing while supporting functional safety features, low-level communication protocols, board bring-up, and automated verification.

Build and integrate Atlas humanoid robot agent systems across harness design, context engineering, tool use, memory, evaluation, observability, dashboards, and diagnostics. Develop reliable planning and reasoning capabilities using VLMs and agentic systems, benchmark performance and safety, collaborate with robotics and product teams, and ship full-stack applications for real-world use cases.
