Founding Robotics Engineer | Field Deployment (m/f/d)

𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗡𝗔𝗫𝗢𝗡

Naxon Robotics deploys swarms of mobile robots, quadrupeds, wheeled robots and drones, for security and industrial inspection. The fleet patrols perimeters, detects anomalies and inspects assets as one coordinated system, covering more ground 24/7, delivering more value and reaching ROI faster than a single robot or a fleet of disconnected ones.

Why now: rising threats to critical infrastructure, too few people in security and industry, cheap and reliable hardware and fast moving AI agents. Hardware is ready. Deployment is not. Every new site is still a months-long expert project, so pilots rarely turn into rollouts. We make deployment repeatable, with swarms and an agentic platform that learns from each site.

Backed by EWOR, TUM VLABs and a robotics founder who built and exited a drone swarm company. Mentored by unicorn founders and Prof. Johannes Betz (autonomous driving and robotics, TUM).

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗥𝗢𝗟𝗘

You make our robots work at the customer. You own what runs on site: bringing up new platforms, mapping the site, tuning, testing and keeping the fleet running.

You also support the rest of the stack (autonomy, perception, platform) wherever a deployment needs it, and feed every lesson back into the product so the next site goes faster. The Autonomy engineer owns the stack. You own what runs at the customer.
