the posting
Figure is an AI Robotics company developing a general purpose humanoid. Our humanoid robot, Figure 03, is designed for commercial tasks and the home. We are based in San Jose, CA and require 5 days/week in-office collaboration. It's time to build.
Figure is building the world's most capable general-purpose humanoid robot. XR systems play a key role in teaching our robots how to understand the world around them.
The Role
You’ll be working within our small but impactful XR team, contributing to a number of critical projects. One morning you might be debugging an XR app, the next afternoon you're running a hardware experiment on the robot. You'll thrive here if you love that kind of variety and move fast without needing a playbook.
What You'll Do
Build and maintain XR products to interface with our robots and data-capture hardware - implementing features, fixing bugs, and ensuring reliability as we scale
Design and build out intuitive spatial user interfaces and visualizations
Harden our XR data sync processes
Integrate custom hardware stacks with off-the-shelf XR headsets
Jump across hardware experiments, bug fixes, and new feature development as priorities shift
What We're Looking For
Deep hands-on XR development experience - OpenXR, Unity, Godot, Unreal Engine, and/or WebXR
Comfortable working in XR for extended periods; this is your daily environment, not an occasional tool
Strong C++
Experience with video streaming and low-latency transmission systems
Experience with high-precision motion-capture systems and tracking technologies
Startup experience — you know how to operate with ambiguity and move fast
Bonus: computer vision, robotics, custom hardware, cloud APIs, haptics
The pay offered for this position may vary based on several individual factors, including job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The total compensation package may also include additional components/benefits depending on the specific role. This information will be shared if an employment offer is extended.
