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, youll 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 environmentsespecially those involving occlusions, stacking, or cluttered scenesthis 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, EtherCAT).

  • 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. Youre 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/EtherCAT 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

  • Masters 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

  • Youll 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 roboticsbuilding systems that not only work, but understand the environment.
