Join an Oxford spin-out building the intelligence layer for robots in unpredictable real-world environments. As a foundational engineer, you will develop a mission control platform that provides robots with persistent memory and long-horizon decision-making. You will work across the full stack to turn cutting-edge research into production-ready software products.
Software Engineer at Stateful Robotics Ltd
Join Stateful Robotics Ltd, an Oxford University spin-out recently backed by a $4.8M pre-seed round, as they build the persistent memory layer for autonomous robots. This isn't just about simulations; you'll be shipping software to robots operating in warehouses and construction sites. Working alongside world-class researchers and founders who previously sold to Waymo, you'll have the chance to touch every part of the stack—from backend APIs to on-robot deployments—making this a career-defining role for any engineer passionate about physical AI.
