Wuppertal
VollzeitVor OrtSenior

Designing multi-sensor fusion for AMR and drone localization. 8+ years in robotics localization and SLAM required. 30 days vacation, overtime compensation.

Anforderungen

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
  • 8+ years of software development experience in localization, SLAM, or state estimation
  • Proven experience deploying localization systems on robots (AMRs, AGVs, drones, or similar vehicle platforms)
  • Strong theoretical and practical understanding
  • Probabilistic state estimation understanding
  • Sensor fusion understanding (IMU, wheel odometry, LiDAR, vision, GNSS)
  • 2D and 3D SLAM pipelines understanding
  • Hands-on experience with ROS / ROS 2 (message design, lifecycle nodes, parameters, tooling)
  • Experience with real-time constraints, synchronization, and time-sensitive data pipelines
  • Strong Linux systems knowledge and middleware experience (DDS or similar)
  • Ability to produce clear architecture documents, data flows, algorithm explanations, and interface definitions
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to explain complex localization concepts to cross-functional audiences
  • Experience with localization in industrial or commercial environments (warehousing, logistics, manufacturing)
  • Familiarity with functional safety standards relevant to mobile robots (IEC 61508, ISO 13849, ISO 3691-4, ISO 10218)
  • Experience with heterogeneous compute platforms (NVIDIA, Qualcomm, TI, Renesas) and acceleration of perception/localization pipelines
  • Hands-on experience with simulation tools (Gazebo, Isaac Sim, or custom data playback frameworks)
  • Experience handling challenging localization conditions
  • Experience with feature-sparse or repetitive environments
  • Experience with dynamic scenes with moving objects
  • Experience with long-term map maintenance and change detection
  • Exposure to cloud or fleet-level localization concepts (map distribution, versioning, fleet-wide updates)
  • Background in start-up or incubation environments with high ambiguity and fast iteration
  • Experience debugging numerical stability, sensor timing, and real-world estimator failures
  • Familiarity with cybersecurity considerations related to sensor data and localization integrity

Aufgaben

  • Own end-to-end localization and state estimation architecture for AMR and drone platforms
  • Define and standardize localization approaches across platforms
  • Design multi-sensor fusion architectures for accurate, drift-resilient pose estimates
  • Specify integration of localization with perception, planning, control, safety, and fleet systems
  • Set system-level performance targets for localization
  • Partition localization functionality across onboard and offboard compute
  • Lead localization design reviews and technical trade studies
  • Guide algorithm selection and tuning for different environments
  • Provide technical direction to teams implementing SLAM, odometry, sensor fusion, and map management
  • Establish best practices for localization robustness
  • Mentor engineers on localization algorithms, estimation theory, and production-quality implementation
  • Architect localization systems to support safety requirements
  • Define localization-related safety concepts
  • Collaborate with safety engineering on hazard analyses and safety cases
  • Drive strategies for redundancy, observability, and field reliability
  • Define simulation and recorded data replay support for localization
  • Specify simulation needs for testing sensor noise models, environmental variation, and degenerate cases
  • Shape localization validation strategies, regression testing, and performance benchmarking
  • Evaluate and integrate open-source localization frameworks and third-party SDKs
  • Translate customer and operational requirements into localization performance targets
  • Support PoCs, demos, and early deployments by guiding localization setup, tuning, and debugging
  • Influence technical roadmaps and build-vs-buy decisions
  • Engage with ecosystem partners to align technology direction with platform goals
