Robotics Engineer São Paulo

Robotics Engineer Jobs São Paulo on Rex.zone focus on designing, building, and deploying robotic systems for real-world automation. You will develop robot software for perception, localization (SLAM), motion planning, and controls, and validate performance in simulation and on physical hardware to ensure safe, reliable operation.

• Design and implement robotics software components (planning, perception, controls) in Python and C++
• Build and maintain ROS2 nodes, message interfaces, and launch configurations
• Implement SLAM, localization, mapping, and state estimation using sensor fusion (IMU, LiDAR, cameras, encoders)
• Develop motion planning and trajectory generation with collision checking and constraints
• Tune controllers (PID/MPC) and validate stability, latency, and tracking error
• Create simulation environments (Gazebo/Isaac/Unity equivalents) and run reproducible experiments
• Integrate and debug hardware (sensors, actuators, compute, networking) and create test procedures
• Define metrics (success rate, cycle time, drift, safety stops) and establish regression testing
• Document architecture, interfaces, and operating procedures for scale and handoff

• Mid-senior experience shipping robotics features to production and improving measurable autonomy/reliability
• Strong C++ and Python skills, including profiling and debugging
• Hands-on experience with ROS2 and distributed robotics systems
• Knowledge of SLAM/localization, sensor fusion, and state estimation
• Understanding of motion planning, kinematics, and collision checking
• Experience with control systems and simulation-to-real validation
• Strong engineering fundamentals: testing, version control, CI/CD, code review

Competitive hourly base pay: $30-$50 per hour (USD), based on experience and scope.
