Job description

Location: Relocation Required (We encourage applications from the UK, Turkey, Brazil, and Morocco)

Type: Full-Time

Are you a passionate robotics enthusiast or a high-achieving graduate driven by a desire to innovate, evidenced not just by your studies but also by your personal robotics projects? Whether you hold a PhD with hands-on prototyping experience or boast a strong track record as a self-taught robotics hobbyist with competition wins, open-source recognition, or compelling personal projects, we want to hear from you!

Join our client's dynamic engineering team and contribute to the development of next-generation autonomous systems. You'll collaborate with experts on exciting real-world challenges involving AI, motion planning, swarm coordination, and hardware-software integration.

What You'll Do:

• Design and develop software for robotic and autonomous platforms.
• Implement and optimize algorithms for motion planning, control systems, and swarm coordination.
• Integrate sensors, actuators, and embedded systems.
• Work with real-time simulation environments (ROS2, PX4, GAZEBO).
• Contribute to cooperative robotics and multi-agent system projects.
• Collaborate cross-functionally to deliver innovative and rigorously tested robotics solutions.
• Conduct simulations and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing.

What You Bring:

• Option A: A PhD in Robotics, AI, Mechatronics, or a related field with clear evidence of hands-on prototyping gained through both academic work and personal projects.
• OR Option B: A strong portfolio as a self-driven robotics hobbyist with notable achievements (competition wins, open-source contributions, significant personal projects, etc.).
• Proficiency in Python, C++, or MATLAB.
• Solid understanding of robotics kinematics, control systems, and real-time computing.
• Experience with ROS2, PX4, or GAZEBO is a plus.
• Tangible personal robotics projects demonstrating functional outputs are highly preferred.

Soft Skills That Matter:

• Strong analytical thinking and creative problem-solving abilities.
• A proactive approach to learning and adapting in a dynamic environment.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills.
• A keen eye for detail and a commitment to writing clean, efficient code.
