Software Jobs in Asiago, Italy (Now Hiring) — 19 open

Figure is an AI robotics company developing autonomous general-purpose humanoid robots. The goal of the company is to ship humanoid robots with human level intelligence. Its robots are engineered to perform a variety of tasks in the home and commercial markets.

• Onsite NPI & Board Bring-Up: Lead early hardware bring-up directly at JDM partner sites, acting as the first line of defense for validating new custom PCBAs and robotic sub-assemblies.
• Diagnostic Firmware: Write robust C/C++ diagnostic and test firmware to verify the functionality of microcontrollers, communication buses, power systems, and sensors during the manufacturing process.
• Factory Test Integration: Partner with Hardware and Test Engineering to design, deploy, troubleshoot, and maintain automated Functional Test (FCT) fixtures for the assembly line.
• System Debugging: Root-cause complex, system-level manufacturing defects on the factory floor in real-time using logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and custom debug tooling.
• Cross-Functional Liaison: Serve as the critical, real-time technical link between Figure's US-based hardware/firmware teams and the engineering staff at our JDM partners.

• Location & Travel: Must be based in China (or willing to relocate) with the ability to travel frequently to other manufacturing hubs in Asia, including Taiwan and Vietnam.
• Education: BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or the equivalent in experience.
• C/C++ Proficiency: Strong ability to write clean, optimized C/C++ for embedded, resource-constrained systems.
• Hardware Literacy: Excellent ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, PCB layouts, and component datasheets to debug hardware issues on the fly.
• Manufacturing Experience: Hands-on experience working directly on the factory floor with Joint Development Manufacturers (JDMs), Contract Manufacturers (CMs), or Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs) during New Product Introduction (NPI).
• Communication Protocols: Hands-on experience debugging embedded communication buses like CAN, I2C, SPI, and UART.

• Language: Professional working proficiency in Mandarin Chinese is highly desirable to communicate effectively with local JDM engineering teams.
• NPI Track Record: Proven experience taking complex consumer electronics, robotics, or automotive hardware from initial prototype through EVT/DVT/PVT to mass production.
• Test Automation: Proficiency in Python for developing manufacturing test scripts, data parsers, and automated test-fixture infrastructure.
• Robotics Architecture: Familiarity with the distributed systems, sensors (IMUs, absolute encoders, force-torque), and power requirements typical of advanced robotics.
