Overview

We are looking for a hands-on technical leader to head our Intelligent Audio & Video (IAV) engineering team in Athens. This team drives the control and orchestration layer and collaborates on robotic perception that powers Room Awareness and multi-camera/multi-audio automation inside the Q-SYS Vision Suite.

As Lead Robotics Engineer , you will lead a group of 5–6 engineers, while remaining deeply technical yourself. You will own the architecture and delivery of the next generation of Vision Suite, optimized for multi-room setups, advanced room awareness, and orchestration across multiple cameras and microphones . You will also spearhead the development of a lightweight VisionSuite designed to run efficiently on small Q-SYS Core processors.

This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of intelligent AV, bridging robotics perception and control with professional audio/video systems.

Base Salary Range EUR 60,000 – 105,000

The above reflects the pay range that QSC reasonably expects to pay for this role. This pay range also depends on various factors such as job duties and requirements, relevant experience and skills and geographic location. In addition to the base salary range, QSC offers a comprehensive package including but not limited to health benefits, 401K or Roth retirement plans and generous time off.

We will be accepting applications until a final candidate is identified.

Responsibilities

• Lead and mentor a team of 5–6 engineers , fostering technical excellence, collaboration, and growth.
• Evolve our architecture to support multi-room setups , optimizing room awareness and control logic across diverse spaces.
• Drive multi-camera and multi-audio device orchestration , including PTU control, active speaker tracking, and seamless switching.
• Deliver a lightweight, resource-optimized version of VisionSuite for deployment on smaller Q-SYS Core processors.
• Design, prototype, and review code in C++ and Python , focusing on real-time systems, robotics perception, and control pipelines.
• Collaborate closely with UI, ML, Audio & Video and Platform teams , integrating their outputs into a cohesive IAV system.
• Work with product management and system architects to align technical direction with product roadmap.
• Champion engineering best practices (testing, CI/CD, performance tuning) for robust, production-ready releases.
  
  

Qualifications

• Proven experience as a Senior/Principal Engineer or Technical Lead in robotics, perception, or real-time control systems.
• Strong hands-on skills in C++ and Python , with experience in distributed or embedded real-time architectures .
• Background in robotics control , multi-sensor fusion , or room/device orchestration (ROS experience a plus).
• Deep understanding of system architecture and performance optimization for resource-constrained environments .
• Track record of leading a team (5+ engineers), mentoring, and driving delivery while remaining technically hands-on.
• Excellent problem-solving and system design skills, with a bias for practical, scalable solutions.
• Strong communication skills; able to bridge between product vision, system design, and implementation.
  
  

Nice To Have
