About the role

Robotics Application Engineer working with intelligent robotics to enhance manufacturing capabilities. Responsible for customer deployments from integration to sign-off in live production environments.

Responsibilities

Work on real robots, not prototypes
Take ownership of customer deployments from integration through to sign-off
Solve engineering challenges across robotics software, system integration, and field performance
Be involved across the full lifecycle - from understanding customer requirements to delivering robust, production-ready systems on-site
Contribute to how we improve and scale deployments over time
Develop and customise robotic behaviours for customer deployments by extending existing platform components (e.g. behaviour trees)
Implement missing functionality and resolve complex software and system integration issues critical to successful deployments
Perform advanced troubleshooting, debugging, and root-cause analysis across robotics software, hardware, networking, and system integrations in live production environments
Diagnose and resolve deployment-critical issues across manipulation, motion planning, perception, and execution pipelines
Perform hands-on integration, validation, and stress testing on real robotic hardware
Integrate systems using ROS2 across the full execution pipeline, from perception and motion to PLC interfaces
Own deployment readiness, including technical sign-off, delivery planning, and effort estimation
Collaborate with Field Deployment, AI, and Simulation teams to ensure smooth execution
Contribute to documentation, deployment processes, and engineering best practices

Experience developing robotics software using ROS2 and simulation frameworks (e.g. Isaac Sim or similar)
Strong programming skills in Python
Experience working with robotic manipulators, end-effectors, and real-world robotic manipulation systems
Experience designing robot behaviours using behaviour trees or similar frameworks
Strong troubleshooting and debugging skills across distributed robotic systems, including software, hardware, and integration issues
Experience diagnosing and resolving complex deployment issues in production robotic environments
Experience supporting or delivering production-grade robotic systems in the field
Ability to collaborate across teams and communicate clearly in technical contexts
Ability to work within real-world constraints, timelines, and cross-team dependencies
Experience documenting systems and managing issues through to resolution

High exposure: Work directly with founders and leadership on decisions that shape the company’s trajectory
Career acceleration: Develop deep, end-to-end expertise across robotics software, system integration, and real-world deployments - with clear pathways into technical leadership, deployment strategy, or broader ownership across the robotics stack
Real impact: Own and deliver customer deployments end-to-end, with your work directly determining system performance, reliability, and successful go-live in production environments
