Job description

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 working closely with the solution team intentionally to design the cell/system flow, working closely with SW and HW to make sure the cell behavior matches the above workflow as well as SOW (Scope of Work). Travel to customer sites should be expected; travel time will be in conjunctions with deployments and can last several weeks at a time. However, travel time is minimal to none when not in deployment.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead the development and implementation deployment layers across our systems.
  • Own end to end system behavior and performance.
  • Bridge the gap between solution, engineering and customer success when it comes to system behavior and performance.
  • Be accountable and collaborate with the deployment team when it’s time to commission OSARO cells.

Requirements

  • 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., * MS or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Robotics, or related field.
  • Experience working in an Agile development environment.

About the company

OSARO delivers best-in-class robotic piece-picking solutions for e-commerce where key challenges include high SKU inventories, complex packaging, and fragile items. In the rapidly evolving world of logistics technology, OSARO offers smarter automation, low-risk business plans, and its signature Hypercare support from exploration to installation. OSARO’s intelligent robots enable goods-to-robot (G2R) use cases, where the greatest gains are yet to be made on the automated warehouse floor. Its machine-learning vision and control software provides the foundation for all its products.

We have a highly international team made up of expert machine learning practitioners and dedicated software and hardware engineers which matches well with the global nature of our business. We are naturally curious, love healthy debate, and respect varying points of view. At OSARO, we strive to be champions for equality. We believe we can serve as a model for diversity in the tech industry by emphasizing policies of nondiscrimination and inclusion at every step.
