Robotics Engineer, Autonomous Systems

Job description

ABOUT THE ROLE Join an engineering and R&D team building autonomous robotic systems for drone-based delivery. You will take systems from prototype through integration and field validation, helping support safe and reliable operations. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Design and integrate robotic mechanisms, sensors, actuators, controllers, and drone payload systems. - Develop control, navigation, path-planning, and obstacle-avoidance capabilities. - Program robotics software with ROS or ROS 2 and C++ or Python, and validate systems in simulation. - Integrate flight controllers, companion computers, communications, and telemetry with drone systems. - Build, troubleshoot, and validate robotic systems in the field, including analysis of flight logs. - Collaborate with mechanical, electronics, and software teams to develop and deploy prototypes. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - At least 2 years of hands-on experience in robotics, UAV systems, or autonomous systems. - Knowledge of kinematics, dynamics, control theory, PID, and systems integration. - Experience with ROS or ROS 2, Linux, and C++ or Python; MATLAB familiarity is useful. - Experience with PX4 or ArduPilot, MAVLink, flight controllers, motors, ESCs, and batteries. - Familiarity with IMU, GPS or RTK, LiDAR, sensor fusion, and GPS-denied navigation. - Embedded systems experience with microcontrollers, Raspberry Pi or Jetson, actuators, and hardware debugging. - Knowledge of CAN, UART, I2C, and drone telemetry, along with hands-on prototyping and field testing. - A degree in robotics, mechatronics, electrical engineering, aerospace, computer science, or a related field. - Computer vision, machine learning, SLAM, Gazebo, Webots, CAD, or BVLOS experience is a plus.
