We are looking for an exceptionally talented individual to join our software development team. Our software team works alongside our mechanical and electronics engineering teams to develop robot control system software as well as various other tools for data processing, and system validation.

Duties & Responsibilities

• Developing innovative algorithms for robot control
• Transferring research output into production software systems
• A data driven approach to software validation
• Participating in and leading multi-disciplinary engineering teams
• Building high quality and scalable processes for data management, machine learning, and code deployment

Desirable Characteristics

• The ability to understand and implement complex algorithms
• Understands machine learning methodology
• Good intuition about managing complexity
• Experience of developing safety-critical software.
• The ability to understand and define priorities
• A high quality degree
• Experience with C++ or C#
• A willingness to learn new skills

 We are looking for two mechanical design engineers to join our team and help us design our next products.

The job will be varied, as you would expect from a start-up – from developing concepts and prototyping hardware (e.g. for a new robot arm layout or end-effector), to design-for-manufacture of whole-machine subsystems. One thing is for sure – you will see your ideas turn into reality at scale.

What you’ll do:

• Designing, building and testing prototypes with lead engineers
• Generating manufacturing drawings, BOMs, and other documentation
• Working with suppliers and manufacturing team to define SOPs, build documentation and appropriate quality control processes
• Contribute to FMEAs
• Drawing control

What we’re looking for:

• 2-10yrs experience of machinery design, ideally for medium volume production (50-500 units)
• Completer-finisher approach to design
• Proficiency in Inventor or Solidworks required (will be using Autodesk Inventor)
• Ability to get stuck in with the team but also solve problems independently
• GD&T, tolerance analysis & structural FEA would be beneficial
• HND or degree qualified

We are looking for an exceptionally talented individual to help drive the R&D efforts of our rapidly growing technology business. This person will work alongside our Director of Research to develop our next generation of robot control software.

Duties & Responsibilities

  • Autonomous robot decision making
  • Forecasting from time series data
• Taking a data driven approach to model validation
• Participating in and leading multi-disciplinary teams of talented researchers and engineers
• Transferring research output into production systems
• Promoting Dogtooth to the outside world

Desirable Characteristics

• The ability to turn research ideas quickly into production
• The ability to lead a team, and maximize its productivity
• Cognizance of the impact of business objectives on development priorities
• A catholic view. Building intelligent robots depends on having a heterogenous skillset

Desirable Experience

• The right candidate is likely to have a PhD or at least several years of experience of working in a research organisation
• A proven track record in machine learning and computer vision, ideally with the publication history to prove it
