Robotics Engineer (Remote) — Rex.zone
Join Rex.zone to help teams ship production robotics systems—from prototype to deployment. This remote-first, full-time role supports robotics engineering work across perception, SLAM/localization, sensor fusion, motion planning, control, simulation validation, and reliability testing.
Responsibilities
- Build and maintain ROS/ROS2 nodes for perception, planning, and control
- Implement and tune SLAM/localization and state estimation (sensor fusion)
- Develop motion planning and control loops for navigation and manipulation
- Create simulation-first validation workflows (Gazebo/Isaac Sim) and hardware-in-the-loop tests
- Define test plans, logging/telemetry, metrics, and regression checks to improve safety and reliability
- Optimize runtime performance on Linux edge platforms; profile latency and CPU/GPU usage
- Document interfaces, message schemas, and operational runbooks for field support
Qualifications
- Mid-senior experience delivering robotics software to real hardware deployments
- Strong Python and C++ skills with modern software engineering practices
- Hands-on experience with ROS/ROS2, debugging tools, and Linux development
- Familiarity with autonomy stacks: perception, SLAM, planning, control, and safety
- Comfort collaborating cross-functionally in a remote setting
Nice to Have
- Manipulation experience (IK, grasp planning, trajectory optimization)
- Embedded compute experience (e.g., Jetson) and real-time constraints
- Exposure to robotics MLOps and dataset curation
Compensation
Base pay: $30–$50 per hour (USD), dependent on experience.
