In this role, you will architect complete robotic systems that transform multimodal sensor inputs - including RGB cameras, depth vision sensors, and force/torque/tactile sensors - into robust autonomous actions. You will work across perception, motor control, embedded computing, AI, and electromechanical systems to create high-performance robotic platforms for real-world applications. This position is ideal for hands-on robotics leaders who have built and deployed robots from concept to field deployment and possess deep expertise in integrating vision, sensing, decision-making, and actuation into a cohesive robotic system., Architect end-to-end robotic systems integrating sensing, perception, planning, and actuation. Lead the development of multimodal sensor fusion solutions combining RGB vision, depth sensing, and force/torque/tactile sensing. Define system architectures for vision-guided manipulation, dexterous robotic hands, autonomous motion, and robot-environment interaction. Partner with AI, controls, firmware, hardware, and mechanical teams to develop real-time perception-to-action architectures. Drive robot hardware/software co-design across sensors, embedded processing, communication networks, motor drives, and actuators. Lead system integration, validation, and field testing of advanced robotic platforms. Mentor multidisciplinary engineering teams and drive alignment across functions. ## Related Videos - [Robots 2.0: When artificial intelligence meets steel](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1452-robots-2-0-when-artificial-intelligence-meets-steel) - [A Brief History of Data Storage](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/974-a-brief-history-of-data-storage) - [Playing Pong on a shoulder press machine](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100140-playing-pong-on-a-shoulder-press-machine) - [Code to Road in < 12 hours](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1082-code-to-road-in-12-hours) - [Robots are coming into the wild!
