Job Summary
In this role, you will develop perception models for robots, implement sensor fusion, and validate systems in simulations and real-world environments to create interactive robotics solutions.
Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- You will become part of our AI/Perception team and ensure that our robots can see, understand, and interact with dynamic environments inhabited by humans.
- You are responsible for designing deep learning perception models as well as building the entire sensor fusion and perception stack for humanoid and collaborative robots.
- Architecture and design of the complete perception pipeline: from raw sensor data (cameras, LiDAR, IMU, force/moment, joint sensors) through sensor fusion, object detection and tracking, 3D reconstruction, scene understanding, to usable world models for downstream modules (navigation, manipulation, interaction).
- Analyze the state of the art in robot perception and deep learning, and transfer current research findings into real robot systems.
- Design, training, and fine-tuning of neural networks and their deployment in the cloud and on embedded robotics hardware.
- Implement perception software in modern C++ and Python; utilize classical computer vision methods as well as GPU acceleration.
- Build high-performance sensor pipelines and validate your modules both in simulation (e.g., Gazebo, Isaac Sim) and on real robots — always with a focus on safety and robustness.
- Work closely with hardware, control, planning, and manipulation teams: define requirements, integrate sensor hardware, calibrate and optimize systems, develop diagnostic tools and performance monitoring, create documentation, and support CI/CD processes.

Our expectations of you
Education
- Excellent Master’s or PhD degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field.
Qualifications
- Solid background in Computer Vision and Sensor Fusion: 3D Geometry, Multi-View Geometry, Camera/LiDAR/IMU Fusion, Point Cloud Processing (PCL), as well as classical CV libraries (OpenCV).
- Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently as well as in a team.
- Very good spoken and written English skills.
Experience
- 3+ years of relevant experience in building robust perception stacks for dynamic, people-centric environments.
- Strong programming skills in Python or modern C++; experience with CUDA is a plus.
- Practical experience with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow) for perception tasks in robotics; deployment on robotics hardware (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson) is an advantage.
