Job summary

Upplands Brohus is seeking a Founding Robotics Perception Engineer in London (Remote) to lead hand tracking, motion reconstruction, and capture-device software integration. You will set the technical standards for 3D trajectories by turning raw camera data into accurate, verifiable motion datasets for robotics teams.

You will build end-to-end pipelines, integrate SDKs and sensors, and establish quality flags and benchmarks to ensure data accuracy.

Qualifications

• Deep spatial understanding of 3D camera geometry, camera-IMU calibration, coordinate transforms, temporal tracking, and multi-view reconstruction.
• Hands-on experience with 3D hand tracking, visual odometry, SLAM, or pose estimation using real-world camera and sensor recordings.
• Strong production programming capabilities in Python (along with C++ and GPU inference where required) backed by practical deep learning implementation skills.
• Exceptional ability to separate model errors from sensor faults, isolating physical discrepancies, dropped frames, and timestamp drift.

Responsibilities

• Build, refine, and maintain production pipelines for 3D hand tracking from egocentric video and gripper trajectory reconstruction from UMI recordings.
• Integrate camera streams, IMUs, and device SDKs into the collection software, ensuring flawless handling of spatial calibration, coordinate frames, timestamps, and units.
• Develop diagnostic tools to detect occluded hands, lost tracks, motion drift, coordinate discrepancies, dropped frames, and timestamp misalignments, applying automated quality flags for data review.
• Compare motion estimates against physical reference standards, quantify error and coverage, and maintain automated regression tests to confirm that pipeline changes genuinely improve data accuracy.
• Test and benchmark newly purchased cameras and capture hardware on representative tasks, evaluating baseline signal quality and reliability prior to wider operational deployment.
