Job description

Robotics Engineer - R&D Department

You will push the limits of robotic manipulation to streamline manufacturing. We want someone with a research-driven mindset who thrives on pick-and-place and pick-and-assemble challenges. Your day is all about designing clever algorithms, motion planning across multiple degrees of freedom, and making robots hit their marks with speed and precision.

What To Expect

• Design and build motion control systems for robotic manipulators focused on pick-and-place and assembly.
• Integrate and calibrate sensors, controllers, and actuators for rock-solid perception and manipulation.
• Develop vision systems and algorithms for object recognition and pose estimation.
• Create and fine-tune pick-and-place and pick-and-assemble algorithms with smart collision avoidance and optimal path efficiency.
• Run kinematic and dynamic analyses to guarantee safe and accurate moves.
• Teach robots and run advanced simulations to validate new deployments.
• Program robots using Yaskawa, ABB, KUKA, or go deep with C/C#/C++ and Python.
• Document everything: reports, code, set-up manuals.

What You’ll Bring

• Master’s or Ph.D. in Electrical, Mechanical, or Computer Engineering or equivalent, with solid industry experience.
• Deep research background in robotic manipulator kinematics, dynamics, control, and motion planning.
• Proven chops in writing and deploying your own pick-and-place or pick-and-assemble algorithms.
• Strong grasp of multi-DOF motion planning, from RRT and OMPL to MoveIt! and SBPL.
• Hands-on with industrial robot arm controllers, sensor integration, and work-cell setups.
• Sharp with gripper mechanisms, computer vision, and AI-driven trajectory planning.
• Familiar with object detection and segmentation frameworks like YOLO, Faster R-CNN, or Mask2former.
• Comfortable with reinforcement learning and simulation platforms such as MuJoCo, Gazebo, and Isaac Sim.
• Bonus points for patents, publications, or specialist certifications in robotics and automation.

This is for someone who loves algorithms and can make robots dance with every degree of freedom.
