Polymath Robotics is creating software that can safely control all of the world's industrial vehicles, and we're looking for a Senior V&V Engineer to join our team. We're a small, close-knit group of roughly 20 people, each of us experts in our fields, working to bring autonomous vehicles to mining, agriculture, defense, and other industries quickly. We believe robotics and autonomy are at a tipping point, similar to how the PC industry reshaped the world in the 80s, and we need your help. Founded by Stefan Seltz-Axmacher (Founder of Starsky Robotics) and Ilia Baranov (Clearpath Robotics, Amazon Astro), we're building the autonomy stack we wish we had at our previous companies.
As our Senior V&V Engineer, you'll own how we prove our autonomy stack is ready — from simulation to lab to field. You'll author the test plans, acceptance criteria, and integrator handoff procedures that turn engineering work into accepted, paid milestones across every vehicle we deliver.
Interested candidates are invited to submit their resume, and any relevant portfolio or project links. A cover letter is optional, but always appreciated.
Polymath Robotics is an equal-opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. We don’t look for a “cultural fit”, we look for people who add to the culture.
Polymath is building a general autonomy stack for cautious vehicles. Our software allows any industrial vehicle - whether it's a tractor in a field or a bulldozer in a mine, drive itself. We bundle together AI, ML, Controls, ROS, Safety and best-in-class deployment practices to enable our customers to tell automated vehicles to do via a REST API.
We're on more robots than we have engineers, are seeing our revenue (and robotic fleet) grow rapidly, and are looking for folks who want to help automate the world.
