Senior Robotic Systems Engineer

About the Role

Join an industrial robotics team building flexible robotic work cells for demanding manufacturing tasks. You will own core robotics software and help bring systems from development through deployment in real production environments.

What You'll Do

• Own and evolve the work cell's core robotics software stack.

• Develop and optimize motion planning, trajectory generation, and robot control.

• 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 of robotic systems.

• Drive system architecture decisions and engineering best practices.

What We're Looking For

• At least 5 years of robotics engineering experience working with real robot hardware.

• Strong grounding in kinematics, motion planning, and control theory, with hands-on experience generating trajectories for industrial robot arms in production settings.

• Experience integrating vision and force or torque sensors into real-time robot-control loops.

• Proficiency in C++ and/or Python, plus 3D CAD experience with tools such as SolidWorks or CATIA.

• Experience with industrial or collaborative robot arms, end-of-arm tooling, and associated sensors.

• Fluent English; German is a plus.

• Experience deploying robots in industrial environments is important. Background in surface finishing, welding, coating, machine vision, 3D perception, or protocols such as EtherCAT and OPC-UA is beneficial.

• Must be eligible to work in Germany and able to work on-site in Munich five days per week. Visa sponsorship is not available.
