Your Role

Robotics Architecture & Development

· Design and implement robotics software stacks spanning perception, localization, planning, control, and system integration.

· Lead system-level architecture decisions across software, middleware, hardware, and cloud/edge interfaces.

· Optimize performance, latency, power, and memory utilization on CPU/GPU/NPU/DSP-based platforms.

· Contribute hands-on code in C/C++ and Python for robotics and embeded workloads.

· Integrate solutions using ROS 2, DDS middleware, real-time Linux, and RTOS environments.

· Define clean interfaces and modular designs to enable scalability across robot classes (AMRs and Drones).

· Collaborate with hardware teams to influence sensor, compute, and system design trade-offs.

Edge AI & ML Deployment

· Deploy and optimize AI/ML models on embedded and edge platforms using frameworks such as TensorRT, ONNX, OpenVINO, TFLite or comparable runtimes.

· Support model compression, quantization, and acceleration strategies for edge deployment.

· Develop and optimize edge AI pipelines for real-time inference on embedded, edge and heterogeneous compute platforms.

· Evaluate trade-offs between onboard intelligence and cloud-assisted workflows.

Testing, Validation & Production Readiness

· Integrate simulation and testing workflows using Gazebo, Isaac, or similar environments.

· Define and execute validation strategies for autonomy performance, robustness, and safety.

· Support transition from R&D prototypes to production-ready, industrialized solutions.

Your Background

Key ingredients for succeeding in this role are your:

· Master’s degree (or PhD) in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.

· Strong hands-on experience developing robotics or autonomous systems software.

· Proficiency in C/C++ for real-time and embedded applications.

· Solid understanding of robotics fundamentals.

· Experience training, deploying and optimizing AI workloads on embedded and edge AI platforms.
