Job description

The Robotics Autonomy Lab In DSO's Robotics Division develops a wide range of robotics autonomy technologies for ground, maritime and aerial aobots. We are looking for Robotics Autonomy Research Engineers to advance the frontier of robotics autonomy in these areas:

• Localisation & Calibration: Sensor-based odometry, SLAM, map-based localisation, decentralised collaborative SLAM, multi-sensor calibration
• Perception: Environment mapping, moving object tracking and trajectory prediction, semantic mapping, scene graphs
• Motion Planning & Controls: Trajectory planning and tracking, reinforcement learning for planning and controls
• Mission Autonomy: Learning of behaviours for a single robot or a multi-robot team/swarm to achieve a given task, decentralised task allocation, planning and scheduling.

People are DSO’s greatest asset. You will get to realise your career aspirations and develop your own niche either as a deep technical expert or a leader in the team. With frequent career dialogues and a robust training and development framework, we will provide you with the necessary development tools for you to reach your potential. You will also be recognised and rewarded through competitive remuneration packages and scholarship opportunities.
