Warehouse Robotics Engineer

Warehouse Robotics Engineer (Remote, Full-Time) Rex.zone is hiring a Warehouse Robotics Engineer to design, deploy, and improve autonomous warehouse robotics systems (AMRs, robotic picking support, and fleet orchestration). You will build production-grade autonomy software and validation workflows using simulation, telemetry, and structured field testing to improve throughput, safety, and order accuracy.

Key Responsibilities

• Own core robotics capabilities: mapping, localization, SLAM, motion planning, and obstacle avoidance in warehouse environments
• Improve perception and sensor fusion pipelines for robust navigation in dynamic aisles and mixed human-robot traffic
• Build and maintain ROS2-based components, interfaces, and tooling for bring-up, telemetry, and remote debugging
• Develop simulation and test harnesses to reproduce edge cases and validate releases before field deployment
• Optimize fleet behavior: task allocation, traffic management, congestion control, and recovery behaviors
• Define and track metrics: route efficiency, localization accuracy, intervention rate, and mean time to recovery
• Collaborate with safety/compliance partners to implement and verify safety systems and fail-safes

Required Qualifications

• Mid-Senior experience shipping robotics/autonomy software to production environments
• Strong proficiency in Python and/or C++ with practical debugging skills in distributed systems
• Hands-on experience with ROS/ROS2 and message-driven architectures
• Solid fundamentals in SLAM, localization, motion planning, and controls for mobile robots
• Experience with sensors: LiDAR, depth cameras, IMU, wheel odometry; calibration and time synchronization
• Ability to build reliable software under real-world constraints (latency, noise, failure modes, hardware variance)

Preferred Qualifications

• Warehouse automation/logistics robotics experience (WMS/WCS integration)
• Computer vision for detection, tracking, or industrial pose estimation
• Fleet management and multi-robot coordination/traffic control strategies
• Simulation platforms (Gazebo, Isaac Sim, Webots) and CI for robotics testing
• Functional safety practices and risk assessments for human-robot collaboration

How To Apply Apply via Rex.zone with your resume and a brief summary of your production robotics experience (navigation stack, SLAM approach, planners, sensor suite, and test strategy). Include links to repositories, publications, or demos when possible.
