About Origin

Origin is building general-purpose autonomous robots for US construction to tackle rising costs, safety risks, and labour shortages. Our modular, multi-trade platform combines purpose-built hardware with real-time site intelligence to navigate complex environments and execute tasks with precision. Trained in high-fidelity simulation and already deployed on live sites, our robots deliver 5x faster execution, 250%+ margin expansion, and significant cost savings. Join India's most talent-dense robotics team consisting of individuals from IITs, Stanford, UCLA, and more.

About the Role

We are hiring a Platform Software Engineer to help build and maintain the foundational systems our autonomous construction robots run on. You will work on the embedded Linux platform, networking stack, boot and orchestration sequences, and the CI/CD infrastructure that ships software to robots in the field.

This is a hands-on engineering role with high ownership and direct impact on robot reliability. You will collaborate closely with senior platform engineers and partner teams across robotics, perception, and applications, while growing rapidly through code reviews, mentorship, and exposure to a wide range of systems problems.

Responsibilities

  • Contribute to embedded Linux images built using Buildroot / Yocto for robot compute platforms.
  • Implement and improve robot boot-up sequences and service orchestration to ensure reliable system bring-up.
  • Configure and debug Linux networking — TCP/IP stack, HTTP, iptables, ARP, DHCP, DNS — for robot-to-cloud and inter-robot communication.
  • Help build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, and containerized workflows to ship software to robots.
  • Work with Docker-based deployment and runtime environments on robot and cloud infrastructure.
  • Write and maintain bash scripts and tooling for fleet management and diagnostics.
  • Collaborate closely with robotics, perception, and application teams to integrate platform capabilities.
  • Follow and help improve best practices around Git workflows, branching strategies, and code review.
  • Take ownership of well-scoped components — debug issues end-to-end, ship fixes, and iterate quickly.
