Benefits offered by this job

Equity (VSOP/ESOP)

On-site work in Munich

Job summary

Naxon Robotics in Munich is shaping the future of robotic swarms for security and industrial inspection. You will own on-site deployments, mapping and tuning of fleets including quadrupeds, wheeled robots and drones, while integrating with customer control rooms and existing camera systems.

The role emphasizes hands-on field work with ROS2, C++, and Python, ensuring reliable operation of hardware in real-world environments.

Qualifications

• Experience with ROS2 and real hardware debugging.
• On-site deployments at customer sites in Germany/Europe.
• German B2 and fluent English required.
• Permanent, full-time contract in the Munich area.

Responsibilities

• Bring up quadrupeds, wheeled robots and drones with payloads, sensors and compute.
• Deploy at customer sites: mapping, calibration, tuning and debugging in the field.
• Run edge deployment: Docker, CI, OTA updates, logging and telemetry.
• Tune perception on site: detection, tracking, thermal and night vision.
• Connect robots to existing systems, control rooms, alarm systems and existing cameras.
• Turn every site lesson into repeatable, automated deployment.

Job description

Naxon Robotics deploys swarms of mobile robots, quadrupeds, wheeled robots and drones, for security and industrial inspection. The fleet patrols perimeters, detects anomalies and inspects assets as one coordinated system, covering more ground 24/7, delivering more value and reaching ROI faster than a single robot or a fleet of disconnected ones.

Why now: rising threats to critical infrastructure, too few people in security and industry, cheap and reliable hardware and fast moving AI agents. Hardware is ready. Deployment is not. Every new site is still a months-long expert project, so pilots rarely turn into rollouts. We make deployment repeatable, with swarms and an agentic platform that learns from each site.

Backed by EWOR, TUM VLABs and a robotics founder who built and exited a drone swarm company. Mentored by unicorn founders and Prof. Johannes Betz (autonomous driving and robotics, TUM).

You make our robots work at the customer. You own what runs on site: bringing up new platforms, mapping the site, tuning, testing and keeping the fleet running.

You also support the rest of the stack (autonomy, perception, platform) wherever a deployment needs it, and feed every lesson back into the product so the next site goes faster. The Autonomy engineer owns the stack. You own what runs at the customer.

• Bring up quadrupeds, wheeled robots and drones with payloads, sensors and compute
• Deploy at customer sites: mapping, calibration, tuning and debugging in the field
• Run edge deployment: Docker, CI, OTA updates, logging and telemetry
• Tune perception on site: detection, tracking, thermal and night vision
• Connect robots to existing systems, control rooms, alarm systems and existing cameras
• Turn every site lesson into repeatable, automated deployment
• Has deployed robots in production at real customer sites and kept them running
• Strong ROS2, C++ and Python, and strong debugging on real hardware
• Hands-on with at least one of: quadrupeds, wheeled robots or drones
• German (B2 or higher) and fluent English, for contact with customers

Autonomy stack experience, electronics, 3D printing, field application and customer-facing experience.

• Full ownership of your area, what runs at the customer, and a clear path into leading deployments
• Real robots at real customer sites, from research to working reliably in real world conditions
• Hands on work with cutting-edge robotics, hardware and AI
• Competitive salary and equity (VSOP / ESOP) as a founding team member
• Backing from EWOR and robotics mentors who have built, scaled and exited companies
• A supportive and inclusive team that values ownership and creativity
• Location: Munich or nearby. On-site with the team and the robots
• Contract: permanent, full-time
• Salary range: 70-110k EUR per year, plus competitive equity (VSOP / ESOP)
• Travel: customer sites across Germany and Europe, in short blocks
• Language: German B2 and fluent English required
