Senior Robotics Algorithm Engineer (gn) (Trajectory Optimization)

Imagine a world with more room to unleash our unique cognitive strengths at work. A world where all people – whether craftsmans, blue-collars worker or engineers – have access to automation technologies that perform inhuman, monotonous and high-precision tasks much more efficiently than we do. At Wandelbots, we’re fundamentally reshaping the way to work with robots. We eliminate the complexity and develop easy-to-use solutions to speed up automation and empower everyone to work with industrial robots and beyond. 2017 founded, Wandelbots employs more than 100 people from 14 countries today. From our headquarters in Dresden Germany, we are giving our heart and soul to follow our mission, to empower everybody to easily work with robots. Wandelbots’ team culture is deeply driven by our purpose and values. We love autonomy, high fives, and every kind of cake. We celebrate team efforts and learning moments. We grow through feedback and honor kindness and empathy. We build waterslides and invent anti-racism campaigns. We are creative, innovative and blessed with a can-do attitude. We truly believe that robots love people, so we just do love them back.

Join us as a Senior Scientific Software Engineer , where you will be part of a team working with customers on building automation applications. Your objective will be building intelligent path generation solutions, for example based on vision input. This can range from rather use-case-specific process paths, to more generic safe-move-to-home or intelligent scan pose calculations. This will become even more complex once we add a work-piece-positioner into the equation. The longer-term goal is to generalize these experiences and extract building blocks as new features for our platform. Your main responsibility will be to develop intelligent path generation solutions for robotics applications, using vision-based inputs to create process paths, safe motion strategies, and scan pose calculations. You will design and evaluate optimization algorithms , process point clouds , and implement vision-based robotic guidance . Additionally, you will generalize solutions into scalable platform features to enhance our robotics software. Your role includes writing and debugging high-performance Python software , setting up CI/CD pipelines for testing and deployment, and collaborating closely with the team. As an experienced developer, you will also mentor junior colleagues and contribute to knowledge sharing within the team.

The language requirements for this position are: German – Basic skills, English – Native speaker . What we expect you to bring to the table is a pragmatic sense for solving problems in ways that are as simple as possible, yet as complex as necessary. You know when to use the full weight of mathematical abstractions and optimization, but also when a simple hack will do the trick. You also don’t shy away from mentoring younger, less experienced colleagues. Requirements What you need You love challenges, solve problems, work in a self-initiated way, and are reliable. You have a strong mathematical background with a focus on linear algebra, numerical optimization, statistics, and related areas. You are capable of designing and evaluating optimization algorithms. You possess a thorough understanding of data structures, paired with strong algorithmic and logical thinking. You have experience in processing point clouds, implementing vision-based robotic guidance, or defining mathematical solutions for robotic motion. You have several years of experience building software with Python, including a deep understanding of how to profile and debug complex Python applications. You have no trouble defining a CI/CD pipeline generating test and release containers, that also runs tests. You are a team player, open, communicative, passionate, and ambitious. You are confident in the use of software design patterns and are able to communicate about them. You enjoy learning and are happy to share knowledge with your colleagues. You are fluent in English, both written and spoken, and you have at least started learning German. You are awesome if You love robots. You have worked with them with ROS or other robotics frameworks before, and you show a strong interest in practical robotic problems in regards to robotic applications and safety. You have knowledge in fields related to Computer Vision. You possess experience with applying signal processing, machine learning algorithms or computational geometry Knowledge of JAX or other GPU accelerated frameworks. You have a deep understanding of how to develop scalable high-quality software. You can think outside of the box to find the best solution, engaging others along the way.
