Job Description

Join Rex.zone to build and support robotic and autonomy features for mining operations connected to Peru-based programs. You will focus on perception, navigation, remote operations, telemetry readiness, and reliability engineering to improve safety, uptime, and productivity.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own autonomy/robotics features from prototype through field rollout and operational readiness
  • Integrate ROS2 nodes, vehicle interfaces, and perception pipelines (LiDAR/cameras/radar)
  • Build evaluation harnesses for navigation, obstacle detection, and localization performance
  • Define data capture plans, telemetry KPIs, and monitoring dashboards for field performance
  • Conduct root-cause analysis on incidents, regressions, and reliability issues
  • Coordinate computer vision annotation and sensor fusion ground-truth workflows; enforce data quality and guideline compliance
  • Contribute to safety cases, hazard analysis, and safety systems engineering reviews
  • Document procedures for remote operations, validation, and maintenance

Required Qualifications

  • Mid-senior experience in robotics, autonomy, or industrial automation
  • Strong programming skills in Python and/or C++
  • Hands-on experience with ROS2, SLAM/localization, perception, and sensor fusion
  • Familiarity with calibration, time synchronization, and field data logging
  • Ability to design experiments, interpret metrics, and communicate tradeoffs

Preferred Qualifications

  • Mining equipment autonomy or off-road robotics experience (haul trucks, drills, loaders)
  • Experience with continuous validation, drift detection, and telemetry monitoring
  • Exposure to GNSS/INS integration and geospatial systems

Compensation

Competitive hourly pay: $30–$50 per hour (USD), based on skills and experience.
