Job description

We are seeking a full-time Senior Robotics Software Engineer to enhance the performance and efficiency of our robot control stack—integrating advanced perception systems and adaptive decision‑making algorithms—to empower industrial robotic arms with the autonomy required for diverse, high-precision pick‑and‑place applications. You will lead the motion planning and control systems development at OSARO, optimizing our software architecture and code to deliver deterministic, real‑time performance.

This role is ideal for candidates who are passionate about engineering solutions that bridge advanced robotics and real‑time control, take full ownership of their work, and thrive in a challenging, collaborative environment.

This role involves travel to customer sites, travel time can range from 10‑20% (3‑6 weeks a year).

What You'll Be Doing

  • Direct the development of motion planning and control systems for industrial robotic arms, with a focus on high‑precision, pick‑and‑place operations.
  • Design and implement robust software interfaces with industrial robotic arms to achieve deterministic, real‑time performance.
  • Lead technical design discussions and code reviews with an emphasis on real‑time performance, and system robustness.
  • Collaborate with robotics and controls engineers to design, implement, and validate advanced control algorithms.
  • Create reliable, production‑grade code aimed at near‑term deployment, with a focus on performance, robustness, and scalability.
  • Research and develop cutting‑edge control strategies to continually improve the performance, robustness, and versatility of our robotic systems.
  • Traveling to customer sites to manage software deployments.

Experience and Skills You'll Need

  • BS in Computer Science, Robotics, or related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in robotic control development, including experience with :
  • Developing and tuning control frameworks for robotic applications.
  • Trajectory optimization, kinematics, and motion planning for multi‑axis robots.
  • Expertise in Rust or C++ with a proven ability in software design, architecture, and developing complex, real‑time, multi‑process systems.
  • Hands‑on experience with industrial robotic arms, including direct development with low‑level hardware controllers.
  • In‑depth knowledge of robotic system design, integration, debugging, verification, and testing, particularly for industrial robotic manipulators operating in demanding, real‑time environments.
  • Background working with robotic sensors (e.g., cameras, force sensors, grippers) involving sensor integration, calibration, or real‑time data processing.
  • Bonus if you have

  • MS or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Robotics, or related field.
  • Experience implementing algorithms for generating collision‑free, time‑optimal trajectories for robotic manipulators.
  • Experience working in an Agile development environment.
  • More About OSARO
