Job Title:

Senior Robotics Engineer

THE JOB

We are looking for a Senior Robotics Engineer to lead the design, development, and deployment of next-generation intelligent robotic systems. You will play a key role in architecting robust solutions across computer vision, robotic motion planning, and embedded AI. As a senior team member, you’ll be expected to guide complex technical decisions, mentor junior engineers, and collaborate closely with cross-functional teams across hardware, software, and systems engineering.

If you're passionate about building autonomous systems that work reliably in real-world environments—especially those involving occlusions, stacking, or cluttered scenes—this role is for you.

THE DAY-TO-DAY

Depending on your technical strengths, your daily responsibilities may include:

Computer Vision Leadership

• Architect and optimize algorithms for object detection, segmentation, 3D pose estimation, and grasp prediction in real-world scenarios.
• Drive the development and deployment of high-performance vision models on embedded systems (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson, Edge TPU).
• Oversee data pipeline management including dataset curation, augmentation strategies, and annotation workflows.

Advanced Motion Planning & Control

• Develop and validate high-precision robotic arm models (forward/inverse kinematics, dynamics).
• Implement advanced trajectory optimization (e.g., RRT, CHOMP, MPC) and sensor fusion for robust control in uncertain environments.
• Innovate in grasp planning and adaptive force control for challenging manipulation tasks.

Embedded AI Integration

• Lead the integration and deployment of edge AI models with low-latency response times.
• Develop custom hardware drivers and real-time communication protocols (e.g., CAN, Ether
  
  CAT).
• Architect embedded system frameworks that ensure modularity, reliability, and scalability in robotics applications.

Technical Leadership & System Integration

• Serve as the technical lead in cross-functional projects, aligning software, electronics, and mechanical systems into unified robotic platforms.
• Review and approve critical design decisions, conduct code reviews, and define system architecture standards.
• Collaborate closely with R&D and Product teams to translate concepts into commercially viable robotic solutions.

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE

You bring deep technical knowledge, creativity, and a systems-level mindset. You’re a problem-solver who thrives on real-world deployment challenges and delivering stable, production-ready robotics solutions.

Required Skills & Experience

• 5+ years of hands-on experience in computer vision, robotic motion control, or embedded AI systems.
• Demonstrated expertise in one or more of the following:
• Motion: ROS/ROS 2, D-H modeling, RRT/CHOMP, force control strategies.
• Embedded:
  Jetson/RPi, C/C++, ONNX, CAN/Ether
  
  CAT protocols.
• Full-cycle experience in robotic system deployment, from algorithm design to real-world operation.
• Strong software engineering discipline (e.g., version control, code testing, modular design).

Preferred Qualifications

• Master’s or Ph.D. in Robotics, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• Experience leading technical teams or mentoring engineers.
• Proven success in multi-sensor fusion and real-time system design.
• Publication, patents, or open-source contributions in robotics or AI.

WHY JOIN US

• You’ll work on industry-defining products that integrate cutting-edge AI and robotic manipulation.
• Be part of a collaborative team that values experimentation, precision, and real-world impact.

Lead the frontier of human-compatible robotics—building systems that not only work, but understand the environment.
