Software Engineer – Python (Robotics & Computer Vision)

Advanced Robotics Group, LLC is seeking highly skilled Software Engineers to join a small, high-performing team building autonomous robotics systems, computer vision solutions, and large-scale data platforms.

We are a deep-tech robotics company building industrial, fully autonomous systems designed to operate in harsh, real-world environments. Alongside our robotics platforms, we are developing a proprietary big data and analytics system that processes hundreds of terabytes of data to generate actionable insights.

Over the past decade, we have solved complex robotics and analytics challenges considered out of reach by much of the industry. We are now scaling our technology and preparing for global deployment.

If you’re interested in solving technically complex problems at the intersection of robotics, AI, and large-scale data systems—you’ll fit right in.

Why Join Us Work on cutting-edge robotics and AI systems Solve real-world, high-impact engineering problems Generous compensation including stock options, plus full medical, vision, and disability coverage Collaborative, high-performance engineering culture Modern R&D facility (14,000+ sq ft) in Houston Daily Team lunches and stocked kitchen provided Key Responsibilities You will work on systems that directly impact real-world operations and safety.
