Remote Robotics Engineer — ROS2, SLAM & Perception

Rex.zone; Colorado; On-site; USD 85,962,240 - 143,270,400; Full time

Job summary

Rex.zone is hiring a Mid‑Senior Robotics Engineer to build and deploy robot software for real‑world automation. This is a fully remote, full‑time role focusing on ROS/ROS2 development, SLAM/localization, perception, sensor fusion, motion planning, and field validation to improve reliability and safety.

You will design and implement robotics software components, build sensor pipelines (LiDAR, camera, IMU), develop SLAM solutions, tune parameters, and run field tests.

Qualifications

• 3+ years in robotics software engineering, autonomy, or adjacent embedded/real‑time roles.
• Strong C++ and Python on Linux; debugging, profiling, and performance optimization skills.
• Hands‑on ROS/ROS2 experience (TF, message types, rosbag/logging, lifecycle management).
• Working knowledge of SLAM/localization and practical deployment constraints.
• Perception and sensor fusion fundamentals (EKF/UKF, feature tracking, point cloud processing).
• Ability to work remotely with clear written communication and disciplined issue tracking.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement robotics software components for perception, localization, planning, and control using ROS/ROS2 nodes and services.
• Build and maintain pipelines for sensor ingestion (LiDAR, camera, IMU, wheel odometry) plus calibration and synchronization.
• Develop SLAM and localization solutions, tune parameters, and validate performance in changing environments.
• Implement motion planning and trajectory generation with safety and real‑time constraints.
• Create simulation and HIL test suites; run field tests and convert logs into actionable fixes.
• Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, and product teams to translate requirements into reliable robot behaviors.
• Define acceptance criteria, write documentation, and enforce coding standards and CI/CD quality gates.
