The Dynamic Robotics Laboratory seeks a graduate student or Postdoc to
assume responsibility for the continued software development of the
ATRIAS class of Spring-Mass bipedal robots:
http://mime.oregonstate.edu/research/drl/Site%20Pages/Atrias.html

The successful candidate will be able to work in a team environment,
with the aim of implementing real-time controllers for running and
walking gaits on the monopedal and bipedal ATRIAS robots. The
candidate will manage and contribute to software for the robots, work
with students to perform experiments with the robots, and co-author
publications.

Research interests are flexible, the only hard requirement is interest
and experience in software development and robot control.  The ideal
candidate would have experience in several of the following areas:

- Project management (general)
- Software engineering project management
- Robot Operating System (ROS)
- Real-Time systems (we use RTAI)
- Embedded software (XMega chips)
- EtherCAT bus
- Matlab
- Printed circuit board design

To apply, please email Jonathan Hurst (jonathan.hurst@oregonstate.edu)
with a cover letter describing your research background and career
plans, a resume or CV, and the names and contact information for at
least three references.
