Work from home, from the office, or in a hybrid format that supports focus and collaboration.
ABOUT THE ROLE
In this role, you will work at the intersection of robotics, AI, and real-world hardware – building physical AI and multi-fleet management systems for outdoor vehicles in collaboration with a globally recognized industry leader. You will go beyond simulation into practical application, both developing new capabilities and retrofitting existing equipment with intelligent components.
This is a US-based role with an anticipated base salary range of $108,000–$120,000 annually.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design and develop robotics and industrial software solutions, working with digital twins and real-world hardware systems
- Lead the implementation of process modeling and optimization for continuous, discrete, and event-driven systems
- Drive the development of prototypes and production-ready solutions for robotics and industrial applications
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate intelligent and AI-driven capabilities into existing industrial equipment
- Lead testing, validation, and deployment activities in both simulation and real-world environments
- Guide the design and implementation of automated robotic systems that improve production efficiency, quality, and precision
- Contribute expertise in robotics domains such as control, motion planning, sensing, and decision-making to project delivery
- Mentor engineers, conduct technical reviews, and promote engineering best practices across the team
- Support solution architecture decisions and ensure technical alignment with business and project objectives
REQUIREMENTS
- 5+ years of software development experience in C++, Python, or Julia, including experience with system programming and real-time systems
- Proven experience designing and implementing robotics or industrial automation solutions
- Strong experience modeling continuous, discrete, and event-driven systems
- Hands-on experience with simulation frameworks such as MATLAB/Simulink, Mathematica, Modelica, Ansys, or OpenFOAM
