Robotics Perception Architect

SoftServe; Deutschland; Vor Ort; EUR 110.000 - 160.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

SoftServe is embarking on a long-term collaboration with a globally recognized industry leader to advance physical AI and multi-fleet management for outdoor vehicles, bridging robotics, AI, and real-world hardware beyond simulation.

You will define architecture for perception systems, integrate CV, SLAM, localization, and lead teams through design reviews while optimizing latency and accuracy in safety-critical environments; fluent German is required for client interactions and onsite work.

Qualifikationen

• 8+ years of software development in C/C++ and Python, with 4+ years in lead or architect roles.
• Hands-on AI-based robotics perception, CV, and agentic systems in production environments.
• Strong command of ML frameworks and robotics tooling: TensorFlow, PyTorch, OpenCV, ROS/ROS2, object detection, segmentation, tracking, and Point Cloud/RGB-D processing.
• Solid experience with SLAM, localization, mapping, motion planning for mobile platforms, and trajectory planning for robotic arms using MoveIt.
• Practical knowledge of simulation and synthetic data generation tools such as Isaac Sim, Blender, or Genesis.
• Experience deploying AI and CV models to production, including MLOps, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring for complex systems.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure) and Unix/Linux environments.
• Strong mathematical foundation with the ability to design and implement efficient algorithms and software architectures.
• Fluent German for communicating with clients, leading meetings and workshops, onsite visits, and supporting pre-sales activities.

Aufgaben

• Define and own end-to-end architecture of robotics perception systems, covering sensor selection, data pipelines, and real-time processing workflows
• Design scalable, modular perception solutions integrating computer vision, sensor fusion, AI/ML, Physical AI, and localization across edge and cloud environments
• Collaborate with clients and cross-functional teams to translate business requirements into architecture blueprints, roadmaps, and technology decisions
• Establish AI/ML strategies for perception, including model selection, data lifecycle management, and deployment aligned with performance requirements
• Integrate perception components into broader robotics systems — navigation, manipulation, planning — ensuring clean interfaces and interoperability
• Drive performance optimization by balancing latency, accuracy, and resource constraints in real-world and safety-critical conditions
• Lead engineering teams through design reviews, mentoring, and architectural standards enforcement across the full delivery lifecycle
• Explore emerging technologies, validate new approaches, and build reusable accelerators that strengthen the robotics consulting practice
