🚀 We're Hiring: Embedded Software Team Leader – Humanoid Robotics

📍 Herzliya | 🕹️ Full-Time | 🧠 Hands-On Tech Leadership

About Mentee Robotics

At Mentee Robotics, we are building the future of autonomous humanoid robots. With an AI-first approach, our systems combine perception, reasoning, and dexterous manipulation into one adaptive platform designed for complex, real-world tasks in industrial, logistics, and retail environments.

Our flagship product, Menteebot v3, is a fully integrated humanoid robot engineered to learn, evolve, and work alongside humans with remarkable precision and autonomy.

Your Role: Embedded Software Team Leader

We are looking for an experienced, hands-on team leader to drive the development of high-performance embedded software for our robotic systems. You’ll lead a growing team of embedded developers while staying deeply involved in code, design, and integration. This role is ideal for a senior engineer who combines technical depth with strong leadership and a passion for delivering real-time, hardware-integrated systems at scale.

Responsibilities

• Lead the design and development of real-time, bare-metal embedded software on STM32-based platforms.
• Build and scale a high-performing embedded software team.
• Collaborate with hardware, AI, control, and mechanical teams to deliver integrated, production-grade robotic systems.
• Develop robust firmware for sensors, motor control, safety logic, communication protocols, and system monitoring.
• Define and implement software development processes, including version control, testing, code reviews, and documentation.
• Own system-level decisions and continuously improve reliability, performance, and maintainability of embedded code.
• Contribute directly to coding and technical reviews — especially during early-stage development.

Requirements

• B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• 9+ years of experience in embedded software development, preferably in robotics or real-time control systems.
• Deep expertise in C programming and bare-metal firmware development on STM32 microcontrollers.
• Strong knowledge of embedded communication protocols: SPI, UART, CAN, I²C, PWM, etc.
• Experience leading technical teams and mentoring engineers.
• Track record of cross-functional collaboration in hardware/software-integrated environments.
• Strong debugging skills and hands-on lab experience.

Bonus Points

• Familiarity with EtherCAT or other real-time industrial communication protocols.
• Exposure to MISRA C or safety-critical coding standards.
• Knowledge of Linux kernel-level programming.
• Experience with scripting (e.g., Python) for testing or automation workflows.
• Background in robotics, mechatronics, or autonomous systems.

Why Join Us?

At Mentee Robotics, you'll work at the frontier of embedded systems and physical intelligence. This is a rare opportunity to lead from the front — architecting, coding, and collaborating on the systems that bring our humanoid platform to life.
