Robotics Software Engineer

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Robotics Software Engineer to lead the development of a next-generation dual-arm, ROS 2-based manipulation system capable of operating with multiple grippers in a flexible automation environment.

In this role, you will be responsible for architecting and implementing a robust, scalable ROS 2 software stack that coordinates two robotic arms and enables advanced motion planning and 3D perception for complex manipulation tasks. You will own the end-to-end software lifecycle: from high-level architecture and simulation, down to real-time integration with industrial robot controllers, and 3D vision sensors.

• Lead the design and implementation of a ROS 2-based dual‑arm control architecture (nodes, topics, services, actions, lifecycle) that supports coordinated and independent arm motions.
• Define interfaces and APIs for motion planning, perception, and gripper/tool management.

• Develop, tune, and deploy advanced motion planning and manipulation algorithms using Move It 2 for dual‑arm coordination (bimanual tasks, handovers, collision‑aware trajectories).
• Configure and maintain the kinematic models, planning scenes, and controllers for multiple robot arms and end‑effectors.
• Ensure safe, efficient trajectory generation in cluttered and dynamic environments.

• Design and integrate 3D perception pipelines (point clouds, depth maps, 3D sensors such as Photoneo Pho Xi, Real Sense, ZED) for robust object detection, pose estimation, and scene understanding.
• Fuse perception outputs with the planning scene to enable dual‑arm, multi‑gripper manipulation strategies (e.g., grasp selection, re‑grasping, handover).

• Write clean, efficient, production-quality C++ and Python code within the ROS 2 ecosystem (ament, colcon, , Move It 2 plugins).
• Establish and maintain CI/CD pipelines, code reviews, unit/integration tests, and documentation for the dual‑arm system.

Master's degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
