Robotics Engineer Jobs Uruguay

RemoExperts; United States; Remote; USD 41,000 - 69,000; Full time

Job summary

Rex.zone is hiring a mid-senior Robotics Engineer to build, integrate, and deploy reliable robotic systems across perception, localization/SLAM, planning, and control. You will develop ROS/ROS2 software, integrate sensors, and validate performance in simulation-first workflows with scheduled hardware integration/testing windows.

Key responsibilities include owning software components, sensor calibration, control loop tuning, SLAM evaluation, and building test harnesses in Gazebo/Ignition.

Qualifications

• Mid-senior experience building robotics systems in production or advanced prototypes.
• Strong C++ and Python on Linux.
• Hands-on ROS/ROS2 experience (TF frames, nav stack concepts, launch systems, messages).
• Robot kinematics, coordinate frames, and motion planning fundamentals.
• SLAM/localization and sensor fusion (e.g., EKF/UKF).
• Debugging distributed robotic systems (logs, bag files, profiling, latency analysis).
• Docker and CI-friendly workflows.

Responsibilities

• Own robotics software components for perception, localization/mapping, planning, and control.
• Integrate and calibrate sensors (LiDAR, cameras, IMU, encoders) and implement time sync/filtering/sensor fusion.
• Develop and tune control loops (PID/MPC as applicable) for navigation/manipulation/actuation.
• Implement and evaluate SLAM/localization (drift, loop closure, recovery behavior).
• Build simulation and test harnesses (Gazebo/Ignition or equivalent) to reproduce field issues.
• Define performance metrics (latency, accuracy, reliability) and drive continuous improvement.
• Support hardware bring-up, embedded interfaces, and field debugging procedures.
• Document architecture, interfaces, and operational runbooks.
