Agility’s commercially deployed humanoids operate alongside teams in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers—tackling physically demanding and repetitive tasks while enabling workers to focus on higher-value work. With industry-leading safety standards and years of proven deployment data, we're pioneering a new era of automation that enhances human potential. ROLE OVERVIEW Agility Robotics is seeking a Staff HiL Software Infrastructure Engineer to join the Systems Engineering, Integration & Test (SEIT) team. This critical role will lead the development of a modular, rack-based Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) ecosystem for our next-generation V5 humanoid robot. You will be responsible for the core software infrastructure that powers our automated testing, including real-time simulation models, CI/CD pipelines, and hardware interface libraries. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES * Automation Framework Development: Design, implement, and scale test automation frameworks to support continuous firmware and software regression testing. * CI/CD Pipeline Engineering: Build and manage automated pipelines using GitHub Actions to trigger firmware flashing and test execution on physical HiL runners. * Real-Time Simulation Modeling: Develop high-fidelity RT models for motor, encoder, communication framework and sensor emulation to support sub-system and full-system HiL benches. * Hardware Interface Libraries: Create and maintain robust software libraries for interfacing with industrial hardware protocols, including EtherCAT, CAN, SPI , I2C , SCPI-controlled power supplies, and PXI relay APIs. * Infrastructure Management: Configure and maintain Linux-based workstations as GitHub Actions self-hosted runners, ensuring deterministic and traceable test environments. * Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Electrical Engineers and Firmware teams to define signal mapping, fault injection requirements, and sensor data simulation strategies. * Fault Injection Implementation: Programmatically control Fault Injection Units (FIU) to simulate short-to-battery, short-to-ground, and open-circuit conditions on critical robot signals. TECHNICAL SKILLS & REQUIREMENTS CORE REQUIREMENTS * Minimum of 5 years of experience in test engineering, design verification, or electrical validation * Strong preference for experience in robotics, autonomous vehicles, aerospace, or other complex hardware systems * Extensive experience in designing, implementing, and maintaining Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) systems, and deep familiarity with Verification & Validation (V&V) methodologies for complex robotic or embedded systems. * Strong proficiency in Python for automation, scripting, and development, as well as MATLAB/Simulink for real-time model development. * Proven experience with GitHub Actions and test automation framework in a hardware-focused environment. * Deep understanding of EtherCAT, Ethernet, CAN , SPI, I2C, and differential UART. * Experience with real-time simulation platforms such as dSpace (Labbox/SCALEXIO/ConfigurationDesk) or NI, and real-time operating systems like Linux RT. PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS * Familiarity with Acontis and other EtherCAT simulation * Proven experience in Linux  system administration and Docker for containerized test environments. * Experience with one or more robotics simulation platforms such as NVIDIA Isaac Sim, MuJoCo, Gazebo, or Webots. * Experience with programmable power supplies, electronic loads, and PXI-based switching hardware. * Experience in a high-growth startup or New Product Introduction (NPI) environment, specifically bridging the gap between R&D prototypes and production hardening.   Education * * Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering or a related field (Master’s preferred) ---------------------------------------- This a hybrid position based out of one of our Fremont, CA offices.   The final salary offered to a successful candidate will be dependent on several factors that may include but are not limited to: job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
