Warehouse Robotics ROS Engineer

About The Role Rex.zone is hiring a Remote, Full-Time Warehouse Robotics ROS Engineer to build, integrate, and operate ROS/ROS2-powered autonomous mobile robots (AMRs/AGVs) in real fulfillment and distribution environments. You will own production-grade robotics pipelines from simulation to on-robot deployment, with a focus on safe navigation, reliable localization, and scalable fleet operations.

What You Will Do

• Design and maintain ROS2 nodes/packages for mapping, localization (SLAM), navigation, and mission execution
• Integrate sensors (LiDAR, cameras, IMU, wheel encoders) and debug timing/TF issues using logs and rosbag
• Tune Nav2/navigation stack concepts: costmaps, planners, controllers, and recovery behaviors for warehouse constraints
• Validate changes in simulation (Gazebo/Isaac Sim) and deploy safely to physical robots
• Improve reliability: reduce interventions, increase uptime, and speed recovery from failures via telemetry/runbooks
• Collaborate on fleet management and integrations with warehouse systems (WMS/ERP), coordinating with ops and safety

Required Qualifications

• Mid-Senior experience shipping robotics software to production environments
• Strong C++ and Python with hands-on ROS/ROS2 development
• Practical knowledge of SLAM/localization, motion/path planning, and mobile robot navigation
• Comfort with Linux tooling, Git, containers, and automated testing/CI workflows

Preferred Qualifications

• MoveIt/manipulation planning (where applicable), behavior trees/state machines, multi-robot coordination
• DDS tuning, observability for robotics, docking/charging behaviors, and industrial safety considerations

Pay Base hourly rate: $30–$50/hr (USD).

Workplace: Remote . Employment type: Full-Time .

How To Apply Apply via Rex.zone and highlight ROS/ROS2 packages you built, real robot deployments, navigation/localization tuning outcomes, and examples of complex debugging (TF, sensor fusion, timing).
