Job description

Process Logic. · Waite Park, Minnesota · Full-time · On-site with field days The job We're a Minnesota commercial roofing contractor with 150+ employees, and we're putting autonomous robots on our roofs. Today that's a fleet of three wheeled and tracked rovers hauling tear-off debris, running ROS 2, RTK GPS, lidar, and depth cameras, controlled from an iPhone by a roofing crew. Next, it's robots that load themselves from a moving tear-off machine, deliver to a moving person, and report back to the office — and after that, swappable attachments for other rooftop jobs. You'll own the software for all of it. You'll take a working prototype and make it something a crew with no training can depend on every day. What you'll do • Own the robot codebase end to end navigation, localization, multi-robot coordination, the iPhone interface, and the systems that keep it all running on the robots • Make centimeter-accurate RTK positioning, heading, and roof-edge boundaries rock solid • Build robot-to-robot coordination: following, queuing, handoffs at a moving machine • Integrate hardware: GNSS, UWB, IMUs, load cells, buttons, status lights, and new attachments • Bring engineering discipline: one codebase, simulation that matches the field, tests, GitHub pull requests, over-the-air updates • Spend real time on roofs with crews, watch what breaks, and fix it • Work with AI coding tools daily; we use Claude Code, ChatGPT and others and expect you to use it to move fast What you bring • Years of building software for mobile robots or autonomous vehicles that shipped to real users, not just labs • Strong ROS 2 experience: Nav2, robot localization or equivalent sensor fusion, behavior trees, launch and lifecycle management • Python and C++ on Linux; comfortable on embedded compute like NVIDIA Jetson • Hands-on with GNSS/RTK, lidar, and IMUs, and the practical problems of outdoor localization • You've debugged a robot in a field with a laptop on your knee and you liked it • You can explain to a roofer why the robot did what it did Nice to have • Multi-robot coordination or formation control • UWB or other short-range relative positioning • Gazebo or Isaac Sim, and CI for robotics • Web front-end work (JavaScript, WebSockets/rosbridge) • Thermal or ruggedization experience for electronics in harsh environments • Any construction or heavy-equipment background Small team, owner-driven, no committees. You'll work directly with the owner on what the robots should do and have full authority over how. Ideas move from conversation to plan to code to roof in weeks. The robots are real, the crews are real, and the results show up as tons hauled per day. • Competitive Wage: DOE • Health Benefits • Paid Time Off • Holiday Pay • Employer sponsored events • Company Clothing Store • Date Night $200.00 reimbursement
