Robotics Engineer

**Key Responsibilities:** 1. Design the whole-body controller that coordinates the mobile base and arm to cover large wall surfaces 2. Develop motion planning and coverage trajectories 3. Implement force/compliance control for steady contact on uneven walls 4. Build kinematics, calibration, and localization pipelines, including hand-eye calibration and base-to-wall registration 5. Integrate the control stack with sensors and actuators and bring it up on real hardware 6. Build vision models to detect wall defects (cracks, pits, uneven patches, missed spots) and trigger rework passes 7. Set up simulation and testing, and run field trials at real construction sites 8. Work with the mechanical and electronics teams on design and integration feedback. **Required Skills:** 1. Bachelor’s or Master’s in Robotics, Mechatronics, Electrical, Mechanical, Computer Science, or a related field 2. Experience with robot manipulators (kinematics, dynamics & trajectory planning) 3. Experience with mobile manipulation or coordinating multiple motion systems (arm plus base, gantry, or similar) 4. Strong programming in C++ and Python 5. Experience with ROS 2 and its control and navigation stack (ros2_control, MoveIt 2, Nav2 or equivalent) 6. Solid grounding in control theory (PID, impedance/admittance control, MPC, or optimization-based control) 7. A track record of getting algorithms running on physical robots
