Remote Robotics Engineer - ROS2, Autonomy & Simulation

Rex.zone; United States; On-site; USD 41,328 - 68,880; Full time

Job summary

Rex.zone is seeking a remote Robotics Engineer to support US-based engineering teams. You will build and improve production-grade robotics software for autonomous systems spanning perception, localization/SLAM, motion planning, and controls, with a strong focus on reliability, testing, and validation in simulation and hardware-in-the-loop.

You will design and maintain ROS/ROS2 components, integrate sensors, tune SLAM and navigation, implement control algorithms, and contribute to CI/CD,

Qualifications

• Mid-senior experience delivering robotics/autonomous systems in production or advanced prototypes.
• Strong Python and C++ proficiency for robotics software development.
• Hands-on ROS/ROS2 experience (tf, navigation stacks, message definitions, launch tooling).
• Understanding of estimation, coordinate frames, uncertainty, and practical deployment constraints.
• Linux-based development, debugging/profiling, and log-driven troubleshooting.

Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain ROS/ROS2 components for perception, planning, and control.
• Integrate sensors (LiDAR, cameras, IMU, encoders) including calibration, sensor fusion, and time synchronization.
• Build and tune SLAM/localization pipelines and navigation behaviors.
• Implement motion planning (trajectory generation, collision checking, recovery behaviors).
• Develop and tune control algorithms for safe operation.
• Create simulation and validation workflows using Gazebo/Isaac Sim; define metrics and regression tests.
• Establish HIL/field testing, log analysis, incident retrospectives, and reliability improvements.
• Contribute to CI/CD, code quality, documentation, and long-term maintainability.
