ABOUT THE ROLE
Join an engineering and R&D team as a Robotics Engineer focused on autonomous systems. You will build and integrate drone-based robotic systems from prototype through field validation, supporting safe and reliable delivery 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 solutions.
- Program robotics software with ROS or ROS 2 and C++ or Python, and validate solutions in simulation.
- Integrate flight controllers, companion computers, communication links, and telemetry with drone systems.
- Build, troubleshoot, and field-test prototypes, analyzing flight logs and sensor data.
- Collaborate with mechanical, electronics, and software teams on prototype development and deployment.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- At least 2 years of hands-on experience in robotics, UAV systems, or autonomous systems.
- Strong foundations in kinematics, dynamics, control theory, PID, and system integration.
- Proficiency in C++ or Python, ROS or ROS 2, and Linux; familiarity with MATLAB.
- Practical experience with PX4 or ArduPilot, MAVLink, motors, ESCs, batteries, and flight controllers.
- Knowledge of IMU, GPS or RTK, LiDAR, sensor fusion, and GPS-denied navigation.
- Experience with embedded systems, microcontrollers, Raspberry Pi or Jetson, actuators, and hardware debugging.
- Familiarity with CAN, UART, I2C, drone telemetry, simulation, field testing, and flight-log analysis.
- Background 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.
