Full Job Description
📋 Description
- • This is a foundational senior engineering hire at an ambitious early-stage robotics startup in Munich.
- • You will own the core robotics software stack for a fully flexible, intelligent industrial robotic work cell designed to automate some of the most demanding manual tasks in industry — surface finishing, welding, and coating.
- • This is a high-ownership, high-impact role where you will shape architecture decisions and drive the system from prototype to real-world production deployment.
- • The role is on-site in Munich, and candidates must already be eligible to work in Germany — no visa sponsorship is available.
- • You will be responsible for developing and optimizing motion planning, trajectory generation, and robot control algorithms.
- • You will integrate perception systems — cameras, force/torque sensors, LiDAR — into real-time control loops.
- • You will implement industrial safety concepts and fail-safe behaviors to production standards.
- • You will lead on-site testing, calibration, and commissioning of the physical system.
- • You will drive software architecture decisions and establish engineering best practices for the team.
🎯 Requirements
- • 5+ years of hands-on experience in robotics engineering, including real-world production or industrial environments (not simulation-only)
- • Proven experience with motion planning and trajectory generation for industrial robot arms (e.g. KUKA, ABB, Fanuc, Universal Robots)
- • Strong proficiency in C++ and/or Python
🏖️ Benefits
- • Base salary: €75,000 – €110,000 per year (depending on experience)
- • Equity participation: Meaningful equity stake — a genuine differentiator at this stage
- • High ownership and direct influence on product and engineering direction
- • Small, focused team pushing the frontier of industrial robotics
