Job Description

About The Role

Rex.zone is hiring an Automotive Robotics Engineer focused on automotive-grade autonomy and automation. You will design, integrate, and validate robotics software spanning perception, localization/SLAM, motion planning, and closed-loop control, using simulation and real-world logs to improve reliability and safety under production constraints.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and optimize robotics components for perception, localization, planning, and control
  • Develop sensor fusion and tracking pipelines; improve calibration and time synchronization
  • Implement SLAM/localization approaches and evaluate drift, loop closure, and map quality
  • Create motion planning behaviors; tune controllers for comfort, stability, and safety constraints
  • Establish evaluation metrics, regression tests, and scenario-based validation in simulation and replay
  • Collaborate with embedded, test, and safety stakeholders to meet automotive process expectations

What Success Looks Like

  • Measurable improvements in autonomy KPIs (tracking accuracy, localization error, intervention rate)
  • Strong test coverage and reproducible benchmarks for model and algorithm changes
  • Production-minded implementations respecting real-time requirements, latency, and robustness

Preferred Experience

  • ROS/ROS2 nodes, message design, and real-time debugging
  • Computer vision and multi-sensor fusion (EKF/UKF, factor graphs, tracking filters)
  • Simulation tooling (Gazebo/Ignition, CARLA, Webots) and log-replay evaluation
  • Working knowledge of safety validation, fault handling, and deployment constraints

Workplace

This role is Remote . The “Monterrey” keyword aligns with search intent and domain context while day-to-day collaboration is remote-first.

Apply with a resume highlighting shipped robotics features, benchmarks, and ownership; include code samples/publications if available.
