The Role

We’re looking for a motivated Senior Robotics Software Engineer (m/f/d) to join our software team who'll create cutting-edge, unmanned ground vehicles for governmental and civilian applications. In your day-to-day work, you’ll design efficient and scalable software systems to enable seamless communication, collaboration, and performance optimisation across robotic devices.

To join our team, you should be excited to

• Design and implement robotic software architectures to ensure robust device communication and optimise system performance;
• Develop and integrate software solutions for sensors, actuators, and electronic systems in robotics applications;
• Define and optimise communication protocols (e.g., CAN, Ethernet, wireless) for secure and reliable data exchange;
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration of hardware and software components;
• Establish best practices for modular and scalable software development in robotics;
• Conduct rigorous testing and validation to ensure the performance, reliability, and security of robotic systems;
• Provide technical documentation to support knowledge sharing and streamline development processes;
• Mentor and guide team members in adopting architectural principles and best practices.

Your Profile

• Over 5 years of hands-on experience in robotics software development;
• Proficient in C++ with extensive experience using ROS2 (Robot Operating System);
• Deep understanding of robotic systems architecture, including sensors, actuators, embedded computing platforms, and real-time system constraints;
• Well-versed in communication protocols such as CAN, Ethernet, TCP/UDP, and serial interfaces;
• Strong background in Linux environments, containerization with Docker, and implementation of modern CI/CD pipelines;
• Proven problem-solving and debugging skills, particularly in systems involving hardware-software integration;
• Bachelor’s degree, Master's degree or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field;
• Fluency in English is required and German is nice to have.
