Amazon
H1B ✓On-sitemid levelPosted April 24, 2026
About the Role
You will serve as a technical leader designing and deploying software solutions for robotic workcells, including hardware integration and performance optimization. You will own the full software lifecycle, from research concepts to scalable deployments in customer fulfillment centers.
Requirements
Candidates must have at least 3 years of professional software development experience and 2 years of system design or architecture experience. A strong background in robotics, computer vision, and machine learning is required to solve complex, real-world engineering problems.
Full Job Description
Are you inspired by invention? Is problem solving through teamwork in your DNA? Do you like the idea of seeing how your work impacts the bigger picture? Answer yes to any of these and you’ll fit right in here at Amazon Robotics. We are a smart team of doers who work passionately to apply leading-edge advances in robotics and software to solve real-world problems that will transform our customers’ experiences. We invent new improvements every day. We are Amazon Robotics and we will give you the tools and support you need to invent with us in ways that are rewarding, fulfilling, and fun.
Amazon Robotics empowers a smarter, faster, more consistent customer experience through automation. Amazon Robotics automates fulfillment center operations using various methods of robotic technology including self-governed mobile robots, sophisticated control software, language perception, power management, computer vision, depth sensing, machine learning, object recognition, and semantic understanding of commands. Amazon Robotics has a dedicated focus on research and development to continuously explore new opportunities to extend its product lines into new areas.
We are looking for Software Engineers with a strong focus on real-world Robotics, Signal Processing and Computer vision, to bring new product ideas to life and reimagine how we delight our customers with the help of Machine Learning and computer-vision-based solutions. Familiarity with theoretical foundations is equally important as a builder mindset with strong coding and practical problem solving skills. At Amazon Robotics, candidates have an opportunity to drive projects from research concept to a working prototype and beyond. The candidate should have a strong desire to move quickly to solve Amazon’s business problems via a structured approach.
This position will be based out of the Greater Boston Area in our state-of-the-art facility in Westborough, MA. The campus provides a unique opportunity for candidates to have direct access to robotics testing labs and manufacturing facilities.
Key job responsibilities
You will have the opportunity to be a technical leader on the team. In this role, you will solve complex software and architectural problems which may not defined beforehand and design new workcell solutions that use our products. You will own the teams software, performance, benchmarks, hardware integrations, lighting and optics, and work proactively to identify cost optimal solutions that scale the solutions. You will design, develop, test and deploy software to our customer workcells. The role will require you to troubleshoot problems and ensure ease and speed of deployments at scale.

About the team
The Scanless Technology organization builds products that eliminate the need for explicit scanning in the Amazon Fulfillment Network. We research, design, and implement solutions for automated identification of objects and object movement by removing the need for manual scanning of identifiers, like barcodes. We integrate hardware, software, and machine learning, developing products that are solution-agnostic while enabling easy integration from installation to execution. We push the boundaries of current solutions to solve customer problems and impact many areas of Amazon’s operations. For our associates, our systems affect user experience by improving safety and ergonomy. For our large fleet or robots, they improve overall throughput and efficiency.
Basic Qualifications: - 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
- 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
- Experience programming with at least one software programming language
- Experience building complex software systems that have been successfully delivered to customers
- Can work proactively and independently, meet deadlines, and deliver on projects and tasks
- Strong communication skills, ability to work well in a team environment
- Demonstrated ability to design, implement, and test software in a fast-paced environment Preferred Qualifications: - 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
- Experience with AWS technologies
- Experience with machine learning models
- Experience in distributed computing, service-oriented architectures and enterprise-wide systems
- Experience developing and documenting robust frameworks used by multiple teams
