Humanoid
Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That's why we've set out on a mission to build the world's most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We're bringing that mission to life with HMND 01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we're growing the team to take it even further. About the Role As a Senior Platform Software Engineer at Humanoid, you will be at the heart of developing the core OS, data networks and protocols, and fundamental software subsystems for our next-generation humanoid robots. You will help develop the foundational software architectures that allow high fidelity robotic controls and AI development. You will be responsible for writing high-integrity software that runs on our robots, integrating sensors, safety systems, and computing platforms to enable safe human-robot collaboration. In this role, you will have the opportunity to take full ownership of new systems and directly contribute to the development of our future products. If you are interested in complex embedded software projects, thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, and want to make a real impact on the future of human-robot interaction, we want you on our team! What You'll Do Design & Create Embedded Software: Develop and validate embedded software that ensures our robots can operate at scale in the real world. Hardware & Software Integration: Work at the intersection of hardware and software to integrate various robotic components (e.g., sensors, actuators, computing platforms) into a cohesive, fault-tolerant system. Lead Cross-Functional Projects: Lead interdisciplinary projects that involve robotic perception, computing subsystems, and software integration, collaborating with engineers across multiple domains. Test & Evaluate Systems: Integrate new systems with our robots to test, validate, and ensure that they meet safety requirements and perform reliably in real-world conditions. Build Infrastructure for Innovation: Contribute to the development of tools, infrastructure, and operational practices within a small, agile R&D team focused on unlocking new capabilities for Humanoid robots. Drive Safety in Robotics: Be part of a team working at the cutting edge of technology to improve the safety and performance of robots operating in real-world, human-centric environments. Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with electrical engineers, software developers, robotics control experts, physical AI developers, and other team members to integrate software systems with robotics hardware, ensuring seamless operation and performance. What We're Looking For 5+ years of experience developing and deploying production software in embedded systems running Linux (C++, C, Rust, Python, Go). Experience developing time-sensitive, performance critical applications. Thorough understanding of Ethernet and IP networking and higher-level protocols like HTTP or gRPC. Experience with Linux build environments like Yocto or Buildroot. Experience in building Linux kernels and modifying or writing device drivers. Experience with Nvidia's Jetson platform is a plus. Experience working with sensor data, including cameras, lidars, radars, and IMUs is a plus. Strong communication skills, with the ability to write clear technical documentation and deliver presentations on complex topics. Proven history of leading cross-functional technical projects, including developing technical requirements and driving collaboration across teams. Experience working in small, agile teams with fast iteration cycles and interdisciplinary collaboration. What We Offer Meaningful time off to rest and recharge: 23 days of annual leave (accrued), separate sick leave, and paid bank holidays and company holidays. Fully funded private healthcare for UK employees, with broad provider access, virtual and in person care, and strong mental health and serious illness support. Pension scheme with a total 8% contribution (5% employee, 3% employer) on full earnings. Free daily breakfast, catered lunch, and snacks in office. Collaboration with top tier engineers, researchers, and product experts in AI and robotics. Freedom to influence the product and own key initiatives.

We're bringing that mission to life with HMND 01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we're growing the team to take it even further. Our Mission We're building software systems that enable robots to operate effectively in the real world expanding human capability and redefining how work gets done. The Opportunity We're looking for Software Engineering Interns who are curious, proactive, and excited to work on real world systems. This is an open track internship within software engineering, which means you won't be confined to a single layer of the stack. Instead, you'll work across different parts of our systems and collaborate closely with the team to find where you can have the most impact whether that's backend services, internal tooling, data pipelines, or product facing features. This is a full time internship (5 days per week) over the summer (mid June - mid September), based in our London Paddington office, where you'll be contributing to real systems early on with support and guidance from experienced engineers. Duration: 12 weeks Start date: June Compensation: Competitive pay + we'll keep you fed (seriously, the food is good) What you might work on Contributing to backend systems, APIs, and services Building or improving internal tools and engineering workflows Working on data pipelines, automation, or system integrations Prototyping features and supporting product development Collaborating with engineers across platform, robotics, and operations What we're looking for Strong interest in software engineering and real world systems Some experience writing code (any language) Curiosity about robotics and how software interacts with physical systems Ability to learn quickly and adapt in a fast moving environment Comfort working through ambiguity and solving problems Ownership mindset and attention to detail Clear communication and collaborative approach
