About the role
Join us, and ship robots
Weave was founded to build the robots we’d want to have in our own home. We believe the next generation of robotics will transform everyday life by enabling people to do more and to reclaim time to spend on what’s important.
We also believe robots are in a sense like any other product: to matter, they have to ship. Our robots are already operating in real homes and businesses, giving us the opportunity to rapidly improve from real-world experience. With a growing team, strong customer demand, and capital for expansion, we’re entering an exciting stage of growth—and we’re looking for people with exceptional talent and standards to help bring home robotics to millions of households.
The role
As Weave’s robots operate in real customer homes, they need to constantly understand where they are and how the world around them is changing . Unlike robots operating in mapped warehouses or other controlled environments, they must localize reliably through changing lighting, moving people and objects, visually sparse spaces, and environments that evolve from day to day.
As a 3D Perception & SLAM Engineer at Weave, you’ll build the localization, mapping, and navigation systems that make this possible. You’ll work across state estimation, sensor fusion, calibration, and perception infrastructure to turn cameras, IMUs, odometry, and other onboard sensing into an accurate, real-time understanding of the robot and its environment. This role straddles application and research: you’ll be pushing the boundaries of established techniques and investigating how to apply new, end-to-end learned methods in our stack.
Responsibilities
