Robotics Engineer
We’re looking for a Robotics Engineer to join a project building a full robotics stack for an AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle), working directly on-site with our client. This isn’t a purely remote software role — we’re looking for someone comfortable across the full spectrum of robotics development: simulation, navigation, localization, behaviors, and tooling, while also getting hands-on with the physical robot in the field. Role requires working on-site in the Munich area, 3 days/week from the start.
Essential functions
Contribute to the development of a full robotics stack, covering simulation, navigation, localization, robot behaviors, and internal tooling.
Perform testing and tuning of complex navigation systems directly on the AGV, on-site.
Work together with the client’s fleet manager on the robot’s perception stack.
Diagnose and resolve hardware, networking, and embedded electronics issues on the robot in real time.
Potentially manage a team and its resources as the project scales.
Participate in the design and implementation of solutions for challenging customer and R&D problems.
Travel for 1–2 week periods for on-site deployments when required.
Pass on your passion for technology and professionalism to your peers.
Qualifications
Strong experience (+4 years) with ROS or ROS2
Strong experience (+4 years) coding in modern C++ (17+) and Python 3
Working knowledge of networking and electronics (important for the field-facing side of this role)
Experience with Docker / containerized applications
Degree (BSc, MSc, or PhD) in Computer Science, Engineering, Robotics, or a related field
Hands-on experience working with real robots (not just simulation)
Can independently tackle mid-sized software development tasks across the stack (simulation, navigation, localization, behaviors, tooling)
Are comfortable in technical discussions and can propose solutions
Solid technical English, spoken and written
Availability to travel for 1–2 week deployments when needed
Are open to eventually taking on team/resource management responsibilities as the project grows
Would be a plus
Full-stack development experience
Experience with robotics simulation (Gazebo, NVIDIA Omniverse, or similar)
System administration experience
Contribution to open source projects
An active membership of a robotics/tech community or have done public speaking on technical topics
Good level of Spanish
We offer
Opportunity to work on bleeding-edge projects
Work with a highly motivated and dedicated team
Corporate social events
Professional development opportunities
Well-equipped office
