About the role
1X is building humanoid home robots that move, learn, and assist with chores. This Senior Robotics Controls Engineer will own the real-time software stack enabling precise movement, balance, and manipulation across high-DOF hardware. You will bridge hardware and AI layers, develop fast state estimation and control algorithms, and deliver robust tools for calibration, diagnostics, and production readiness as we scale from R&D to wide-scale deployment.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
