Staff Engineer, Robot Platform

Devanthro - the Robody Company; München; Vor Ort; EUR 90.000 - 150.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Devanthro is building physical AI for home care robotics, seeking an experienced robotics engineer to architect the on-robot software platform and lead end-to-end integration. You will drive whole-body motion, indoor mobility and functional-safety across a growing fleet, with OTA, observability, and deep hardware/software integration responsibilities.

You bring 5+ years of robotics hardware experience, strong ROS2/Linux/Jetson skills, and ownership mindset to work closely with the CTO and

Qualifikationen

• 5+ years of hands-on experience with robotic hardware.
• Strong background in ROS2, Linux, and Jetson platforms.
• Experience with robot kinematics, dynamics, and navigation.
• Experience with container-based deployment on arm64.
• Proficient in git and CI workflows for robotics/embedded.
• Ability to own work across abstraction levels and communicate across teams.
• Authorized to work in Germany.

Aufgaben

• The robot platform, end-to-end: architect the on-robot software platform (HAL, control integration, process orchestration).
• Motion & navigation: Whole-body motion and indoor mobility.
• Safety & dependability: Own the functional-safety and reliability posture.
• OTA & fleet operations: The OTA and fleet-management backbone - staged rollouts, rollback, remote provisioning, health monitoring across a growing fleet.
• Observability: Instrument the stack (logging, metrics, tracing, black-box recording) across the full fleet.
• Hardware-software integration: Bring-up, calibration and integration of new sensors, actuators and components.

• Work that matters: help millions live with dignity, powered by tech you helped build and deploy
• A front-row seat at one of Europe's most ambitious robotics scale-ups

About Us

Devanthro is building physical AI for every home. We are tackling the ultimate frontier of robotics: bringing robots to real homes, living with real people and doing real work. Our path into the world starts with care for the elderly in their own home - a massive, urgent societal need. Since making history in 2024 with the first humanoid deployed in a private residence, our momentum has exploded. Hundreds of seniors across Germany and Switzerland tested our robots and love them. Now, backed by top-tier investors, our fast-growing team of technologists, operators, company builders and people who care is taking our physical AI from first successful homes to scaled deployments.

If you want to build autonomous robots that escape the lab and ship into unstructured and messy homes, this role is for you.

We are building robots with heart. Come join us.
