Senior Software Engineer (gn) Robotics Motion Control

Your mission

At Wandelbots, we want to make programming robotic manipulation faster and easier, whether the robot is an industrial arm on a production line or a humanoid working at a bench.

For that we are looking for your help in building crucial parts of our platform. You will be part of a team working on the core of our product – namely in the control of robotic motion. We are looking for another expert in the field of robot trajectory planning and real-time execution:

• Help us to setup an advanced high real-time feedback control system.
• Enable others to execute policy-based motions and VLAs on top of this.
• Plan collision free, synchronous, optimized trajectories for multiple robots.

The team is working in the complex ecosystem of NOVA, providing a central and widely used set of puzzle pieces. Because of that, bringing flexibility and willingness to learn are highly appreciated as well as cross team communication and work.

Your profile

• You have several years of professional experience as a software engineer in the field of motion control.
• You have experience in analytic-model based or neural network based, high real-time closed loop control systems.
• You have experience in sampling-based, graph-based or optimization-based path planning.
• You are familiar with modern C++ and python and eager to learn software development processes.
• You have basic knowledge with serial or parallel manipulators.
• You have basic knowledge in multi-robot simulation and understand the basic physics behind it.
• You love challenges, solve problems, work in a self-initiated way, happy to share knowledge, and are reliable.
• You are a team player, open, communicative, passionate, and ambitious.
• You are fluent in English, both written and spoken, and you have at least started learning German.

Awesome if you have:

• Experience in sensor fusion based state estimation.
• You understand how to develop scalable high-quality software.
• You have experience with dockerized systems and Kubernetes.
• You can easily define a CI/CD pipeline, including packaging software for Conan or UV/Pip, that also runs test cases (gtest, pytest).
• You have knowledge in the field of VLAs or policy-based motion.

About us

EASY-TO-USE-ROBOTICS FOR EVERYONE

Imagine a world with more room to unleash our unique cognitive strengths at work. A world where all people – whether craftsmans, blue-collars worker or engineers – have access to automation technologies that perform inhuman, monotonous and high-precision tasks much more efficiently than we do.

At Wandelbots, we're fundamentally reshaping the way to work with robots. We eliminate the complexity and develop easy-to-use solutions to speed up automation and empower everyone to work with industrial robots and beyond.

Mission

2017 founded, Wandelbots employs more than 100 people from 14 countries today. From our headquarters in Dresden Germany, we are giving our heart and soul to follow our mission, to empower everybody to easily work with robots.

Our Culture

Wandelbots’ team culture is deeply driven by our purpose and values. We love autonomy, high fives, and every kind of cake. We celebrate team efforts and learning moments. We grow through feedback and honor kindness and empathy. We build waterslides and invent anti-racism campaigns. We are creative, innovative and blessed with a can-do attitude. We truly believe that robots love people, so we just do love them back.
