We’re building autonomous mobile manipulators for warehouse pick-and-place — real robots, real warehouses, not another demo video.

Who we are: Cerebel Robotics is an early-stage robotics startup. We have a physical robot platform (mobile base + 7-DOF arm + gripper), a simulation environment in Isaac Sim, and a pilot warehouse lined up. What we need now are the first two engineers to help us go from teleoperation to autonomous operation.

Here’s the robot in action: https://youtube.com/shorts/WeP-TJcGXx0

We’re hiring for two founding roles:

  1. AI / Robotics Engineer You’d own the perception-to-action pipeline: VLA model fine-tuning (GR00T / pi0), imitation learning data collection, sim-to-real transfer, SLAM integration (Nav2), and ZED 2i vision. If you’ve trained a policy in sim and sweated through the real-robot gap, this is your kind of problem.

  2. Embedded Software Engineer You’d own everything between the AI and the actuators: CAN bus interface, motor control (wheels, arm, gripper), teleoperation system, safety systems (e-stop, interlocks), state logging, and getting the robot to run reliably for 8+ hours. If you’ve debugged a CAN frame at 2am, you know what this role is.

Stack: Isaac Sim, ROS2, Python, PyTorch, C/C++, CAN bus, ZED 2i SDK, embedded Linux

What to know:

  • Starts part-time (~20 hrs/week) in April, targeting full-time by August

  • $30/hr during part-time phase (Apr–Jul), founding equity, with full-time conversion and salary increase planned for Aug.

  • You’ll be engineer #1 or #2. No layers, no process theater

  • Real hardware from day one. The robot exists, the sim exists, the warehouse partner exists

  • On-site in Frisco, TX — hands-on with physical hardware is essential for these roles
