About this role
As a Senior Robotics Engineer at PickNik Robotics, you'll be our go-to expert for getting robot arms to do real work in the real world. You'll own manipulation solutions end-to-end on MoveIt Pro (http://picknik.ai/pro): motion planning, IK, reachability, collision avoidance, and grasping. You’ll help integrate the surrounding hardware and tune each arm until it executes the customer's task reliably and within cycle-time. You'll work directly with customers to take their toughest manipulation challenges from concept to deployment, on robots around the world (and in outer space!).
Am I a good fit?
- You love robotics and have a passion for creating the next generation of robot software
- Are excited to be part of a team of robotics experts
- Should work efficiently, be ready to learn, and have great attention to detail
- Desire to contribute to robotics projects solving big problems
- Ability to collaborate with teams around the world
REQUIREMENTS
- Bachelors in Robotics, Computer Science, a related robotics-focused field, or equivalent industry experience
- 6+ years of professional work experience
- ROS knowledge and experience with ROS hardware integration
- Proven track record of innovation in applying algorithms and advancing robotics
- Understanding of motion planning, control, perception, and simulation
- Demonstrated ability, either through previous projects, advanced education/research, and/or knowledge of the robotics field
- Be able to travel approximately every other month to customer sites & conferences. Less than 20% of the time.
- Live in the Boulder/Denver area and have the ability to be in-office at least 3 days per week.
Some preferred skills/experience:
- MoveIt, Nav2, Mujoco, diffusion policy or other embodied AI libraries, PCL, OpenCV, or other robotic libraries are advantageous
