Qualifications

• Degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
• Proficient Python software development used by other engineers.
• Hands-on ROS 2 integration and debugging on physical robots.

Responsibilities

• Robot integration: integrate trained AI models with single-arm and dual-arm robots through ROS 2 and maintain the runtime that runs them on hardware.
• Application development: build robot applications on top of the AI stack, including agentic workflows that chain AI models and robot skills into multi-step tasks.
• Tool interfaces: build UI, API, and CLI tools such as dataset viewers, training dashboards, and benchmark viewers.
• End-to-End testing: build test suites that run real user workflows from data through training to inference, including stress tests with messy data and limited compute.
• Release readiness: maintain nightly regression runs on the reference workflows and run reliability checks before demos and open-source releases.
• Documentation: write and maintain the documentation customers and partners use to adopt the tooling.
• Backend services: experience building backend services and APIs, for example with FastAPI or gRPC.

Job description

Robotics Software Engineer (m/f/d) AI Tools & Integration

The AI Teams at Agile Robots are looking for a Robotics Software Engineer (m/f/d) AI Tools & Integration, who will integrate AI models with robot hardware and build the applications and tooling around them. Customers and partners reuse this stack through open-source releases, so it has to keep working with messy data, limited compute, and real hardware.

Responsibilities

• Robot Integration: Integrate trained AI models with single-arm and dual-arm robots through ROS 2, and maintain the runtime that runs them on hardware.


• Application Development: Build robot applications on top of the AI stack, including agentic workflows that chain AI models and robot skills into multi-step tasks.


• Tool Interfaces: Build UI, API, and CLI tools such as dataset viewers, training dashboards, and benchmark viewers.


• End-to-End Testing: Build test suites that run real user workflows from data through training to inference, including stress tests with messy data and limited compute.


• Release Readiness: Maintain nightly regression runs on the reference workflows and run reliability checks before demos and open-source releases.


• Documentation: Write and maintain the documentation customers and partners use to adopt the tooling.


• Engineering Background: Degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field, or equivalent qualification plus professional experience building comparable software systems.


• Python Engineering: Professional experience building and maintaining Python software that other engineers depend on.


• ROS 2 Integration: Hands-on experience integrating and debugging software on physical robots through ROS 2.


• Containers & CI: Hands-on experience with Docker and CI pipelines such as GitHub Actions for reproducible builds and releases.


• Testing: Hands-on experience designing integration and end-to-end test suites and debugging failures across the full stack.


• Backend Services: Experience building backend services and APIs, for example with FastAPI or gRPC.

Beneficial Skills

• C++ Development: Experience writing C++ for robot-side or performance-critical code.


• Agentic Systems: Experience building applications that combine language or vision-language models with robot skill execution.


• Frontend Development: Working experience with React or Next.js for building data-heavy interfaces.


• ML Workflows: Working understanding of how training and inference pipelines for robot learning models fit together.
