ADVANCED ROBOTICS SENIOR SPECIALIST

Position Summary

Advanced Robotics Specialist aligned with CIM’s Advanced Robotics Program. Focus on developing technologies for one of the following robot categories: 1) Mobile Manipulators, 2) Aerial Vehicles, and/or 3) Humanoids. Domain will be defined based on technical background, experience, preferences and project priorities.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement open, modular robot systems using ROS2 and interoperable software architectures.
• Develop and optimize autonomous navigation frameworks using ROS2, including SLAM, path planning and obstacle avoidance.
• Integrate cutting‑edge platforms (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson, Isaac Sim, Google AI tools) into real‑time robotic control and perception systems.
• Prototype and scale Robot‑as‑a‑Service (RaaS) solutions, focusing on reliability, remote operation and fleet management.
• Contribute to research and innovation projects: author technical reports, contribute to scientific publications, and represent CIM in national/international research consortia.
• Lead and participate in applied research on advanced robotics topics including context awareness, multi‑modal perception and adaptive control.
• Collaborate with CIM’s multi‑disciplinary teams (Additive Manufacturing, Digital Factory, Innovation, Training).
• Support training activities and internal knowledge transfer as robotics competencies grow across CIM.

Requirements / Qualifications

• Master’s Degree in Mechatronics, Robotics, Computer Science or related field.
• Experience with ROS2, Gazebo, NVIDIA Isaac Sim, C/C++, Python, Matlab/Simulink.
• Strong knowledge of robot kinematics, control algorithms, navigation algorithms (e.g., SLAM, visual odometry, map‑based localisation), data fusion algorithms (e.g., EKF) and autonomous systems.
• Familiarity with AI for robotics perception or decision‑making.
• Excellent problem‑solving and teamwork skills.
• Ability to work independently and troubleshoot issues systematically.
• Willingness to always learn.
• Proficiency in Italian and English is required; knowledge of other languages is a plus.

Benefits or What We Offer

• Access to cutting‑edge labs and equipment.
• Innovation‑driven, interdisciplinary and young talented environment.
• Collaboration with academia and industry leaders.
• Mentorship, opportunities for professional growth, and continuous upskilling and reskilling.
• Flexibility (e.g., hybrid/remote policy).
