Robotics Controls Engineer

General Astronautics is building autonomous dexterous robotic arms for orbital inspection, repair, and assembly. Our systems will enable spacecraft to perform complex operations without astronaut intervention, transforming how hardware is maintained, upgraded, and operated in space.

We're looking for a Founding Robotics Engineer to own the software, controls, and autonomy stack that enables our robotic arms to perform complex manipulation tasks in microgravity. This role spans motion planning, controls, perception, simulation, and integration with physical hardware, with opportunities to develop and deploy emerging learning-based approaches to robotic autonomy.
