Full job description

Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.

About the Role

We are looking for a Controls Engineer to join our Controls Team in Vancouver, focusing on low-level controls development for robotic actuation systems.
You will be responsible for designing, implementing, and validating joint- and actuator-level controllers that deliver high precision, responsiveness, and safety for complex robotic mechanisms.

The ideal candidate has a solid background in control theory and strong software engineering skills in C++. You will work closely with other controls and hardware engineers to model, tune, and optimize the behavior of real robots and their subsystems (i.e. limbs and end-effectors).

What You’ll Do

Low-level Controls Development

Tune actuator-level control loops
Develop and validate joint-space control loops such as impedance, admittance for multi-DoF systems in ROS2 / ROS2 Control
Work with embedded and communication layers (e.g., EtherCAT, CAN) to ensure deterministic timing and safety.
Apply modern control theory (PID, feedforward, observers, and state feedback) to achieve stability, performance, and robustness.
Implement safety and fault-handling mechanisms to ensure reliable operation under dynamic conditions.

Mechanism Modeling & System Identification

Build accurate models of actuators, transmissions, and mechanisms to support control design and simulation.
Perform system identification and parameter estimation to improve model fidelity and controller performance.
Analyze system behavior using both analytical and experimental methods to refine controller design.

Software Development & Integration

Develop high-performance C++ code for real-time control and diagnostics.
Develop robotic applications in ROS2 Control
Work closely with other control layers to ensure seamless integration between low-level and mid-level control systems.
Contribute to real-time frameworks and infrastructure for deployment and testing of control algorithms.

Collaboration & Cross-Disciplinary Work

Collaborate with mechanical, electronics, and control engineers across sites to define and validate actuation system requirements.
Participate in hardware bring-up, calibration, and performance testing on physical systems.
Support the integration of new actuators and sensor configurations into the control stack.

What We’re Looking For

M.S. or Ph.D. in Control Engineering, Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
5+ years of experience in control system design and implementation for robotic or mechatronic systems.
Strong foundation in control theory (linear and nonlinear control, system stability, observers, and state estimation).
Proficiency in ROS2 Control and C++ for real-time or embedded control software.
Experience in modeling and simulation of dynamic systems.
Track record of hands-on controller tuning and validation on hardware.

Bonus Qualifications

Proven experience with BLDC motor control, including commutation, current control, and torque optimization.
Experience with multi-DoF robotic systems or robotic hands and manipulators.
Familiarity with system identification tools and simulation environments (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, MuJoCo, Gazebo).
Experience with real-time communication protocols (CAN, EtherCAT) and RTOS environments.
Knowledge of sensing and calibration techniques (encoders, torque sensors, current sensors).
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a focus on control stability and performance.

What We Offer

Comprehensive extended health benefits starting on your first day, including fully paid medical and dental, virtual care, employee and family assistance, and worldwide emergency medical support.
Meaningful time off to rest and recharge: 23 days of annual leave (accrued), 15 days of paid sick leave, and paid company holidays.
Equity included–we believe builders should share in what they build.
Free daily catered lunch, snacks, and drinks in‑office.
Collaboration with top‑tier engineers, researchers, and product experts in AI and robotics.
Freedom to influence the product and own key initiatives.
