Robotics Engineer

We are looking for a Robotics Engineer to advance our UAV perception and navigation stack.

You will work on visual-inertial odometry (VIO), sensor integration, and real-time vision systems for autonomous flight in GPS-denied environments.

This role involves deep technical problem-solving - from understanding hardware signals to optimizing algorithms on embedded systems.

Responsibilities

• Develop and improve VIO and sensor-fusion pipelines for UAV navigation
• Integrate camera, IMU, and auxiliary sensors (magnetometer, barometer, GPS)
• Analyze logs, sensor data, and system performance to find root causes and optimize reliability
• Prototype and test algorithms for localization, tracking, and mapping
• Conduct experiments, evaluate drift/error metrics, and validate results in lab and flight tests
• Collaborate with other team members

Must-Have

• 3+ years of experience in robotics or autonomous systems involving computer vision
• Experience designing and validating controlled experiments
• Proficient in Python
• Ability to structure complex problems into measurable, testable components.
• Able to read and understand C++ codebases and make minor modifications when needed.
• Proficiency with OpenCV for image and video processing
• Strong foundation in linear algebra, geometry, and statistics
• Experience working in Linux environments and with Docker containers
• Experience with ROS/ROS2 and real-time data pipelines

Nice-to-Have

• Ability to model real-world systems using math, logic, or simulation to test ideas.
• Understanding of basic concepts in sensor fusion, state estimation, and visual-inertial odometry (VIO)
• Hands-on experience integrating and calibrating multiple sensors (camera, IMU, barometer, GPS).
• Experience with Ardupilot/PX4
• Hands-on work with embedded devices (Jetson, Raspberry Pi 5)

We Offer

• Be part of a hands-on R&D team exploring advancing visual navigation and sensor fusion
• Access to real flight hardware and test environments
• Opportunity to experiment and research
• Flexible, engineering-driven environment focused on results
