About the Role
Join a small industrial robotics team as a foundational senior engineer, owning the robotics software stack for an intelligent work cell. Your work will help automate demanding manufacturing processes, including surface finishing, welding, and coating.
What You'll Do
Own the core robotics software stack for the work cell.
Develop and optimize motion planning, trajectory generation, and control for robot arms.
Integrate cameras, force and torque sensors, and other perception systems into real-time control loops.
Implement industrial safety concepts and fail-safe behaviors.
Lead on-site testing, calibration, and commissioning in industrial environments.
Drive architecture decisions and engineering best practices.
What We're Looking For
At least five years of robotics engineering experience working with real robot hardware.
Strong knowledge of kinematics, motion planning, trajectory generation, and control theory.
Proficiency in C++ and/or Python, plus 3D CAD experience with tools such as SolidWorks or CATIA.
Hands-on experience with industrial or collaborative robot arms, end-of-arm tooling, and associated sensors.
Experience integrating vision and force or torque sensors into real-time robot-control loops, and deploying robotic systems in production environments.
Fluent English; German is a plus. Must be eligible to work in Germany.
Experience in surface-finishing, welding, or coating automation, machine vision or 3D perception, and industrial protocols such as EtherCAT or OPC-UA is valuable.
Compensation & Benefits
Equity participation is available. Visa sponsorship is not available.
Location
On-site in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, five days per week.
