ROLE OVERVIEW
We are looking for an experienced Robotics Engineer to design, develop, and deploy robotic arm-based automation solutions. You will own the ROS2 software stack for our robotic arm platforms, from simulation in Gazebo through to real-world deployment on the shop floor with industrial customers. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role suited to an engineer who enjoys working across the full stack motion planning, integration, and field deployment.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design, develop, and maintain ROS2-based software for robotic arm (cobot) platforms used in variousapplications
- Build and validate simulation environments in Gazebo for motion planning, path validation, and workcell layout before physical deployment
- Integrate robotic arms with vision sensors, end-effectors, and scanning payloads
- Develop and tune motion planning (e.g., MoveIt2)
- Work closely with the computer vision and controls teams to integrate scanning algorithms with arm motion
- Debug and optimize system performance across simulation and real hardware, closing the sim-to-real gap
- Support on-site commissioning, testing, and troubleshooting of deployed robotic systems at customer/OEM facilities
- Contribute to system architecture decisions, code reviews, and documentation for the robotics software stack
REQUIRED SKILLS & QUALIFICATIONS
- 2-6 years of hands-on experience in robotics software development
- Strong working experience with ROS2 (nodes, topics, services, actions, launch/parameter systems)
- Practical experience with Gazebo (or equivalent) for robot simulation and testing
- Experience programming, integrating, or deploying robotic arms/cobots (e.g., Doosan, UR, ABB, Fanuc, or similar)
- Proficiency in C++ and Python for robotics application development
- Understanding of robot kinematics, motion planning, and control (MoveIt2 or equivalent frameworks)
- Experience integrating sensors (cameras, depth/LiDAR sensors) with robotic systems
- Comfortable working in Linux/Ubuntu development environments and using Git for version control
- Willingness to travel for on-site deployment and support at customer/OEM facilities as needed
PREFERRED / GOOD TO HAVE
- Experience with industrial cobots specifically in manufacturing/automotive inspection use cases
- Familiarity with point cloud processing and classical computer vision techniques
- Exposure to fleet management or multi-robot orchestration systems
- Experience with CI/CD or automated testing for robotics software
- Prior experience in a startup or fast-paced product development environment
EDUCATION
B.E./B.Tech/M.E./M.Tech in Robotics, Mechatronics, Mechanical, Electronics, Computer Science, or a related engineering discipline.
