UI/UX Software Engineer

What you'll do

• Co-design custom, intuitive human-machine interfaces for complex robotic systems with hardware teams and field operators.
• Build fluid, hardware-accelerated frontends using QML and Qt bound to C++ or Python data streams.
• Prototype interaction flows and collaborate with end-users to evaluate usability and safety in the field.
• Integrate UI components with central system state engines, telemetry feeds, and databases for real-time responsiveness.
• Adapt open-source libraries, proprietary tools, and backend APIs to extend and maintain UI capabilities.
• Validate and refine interfaces through hands-on testing in both simulated environments and on physical robotic hardware.
• Participate in peer reviews of designs and code, integration testing, version control, and technical documentation.

What we're looking for

• B.S. in Computer Science, HCI, Design, or equivalent practical experience.
• 1–3+ years of combined academic or professional software development experience.
• Hands-on experience building modern, responsive user interfaces using QML and/or Qt.
• Understanding of connecting QML frontends to application backends via C++ signals/slots, PySide6/PyQt, or async data handlers.
• Proficiency with Git version control, writing clean code, and participating in peer code/design reviews.
• Ability to translate user feedback and operational workflows into functional visual layouts.
• Experience designing for touch pendants, handheld controllers, or embedded/cyber-physical systems (preferred).
• Experience with robotics frameworks (ROS/ROS 2, Gazebo), usability interviews, Python, or graphic design tools (preferred).
