Role Overview
Rex.zone is hiring a
Robotics Engineer
for a
remote
,
full-time
position supporting distributed engineering teams targeting Mexico City job search intent. You will design, build, and deploy robotic systems spanning perception, planning, and control, with a focus on reliability, safety, and real-world performance.
Key Responsibilities
-
Design and implement robotics software components using ROS/ROS2, C++, and Python (nodes, services, messages, lifecycle modules)
-
Develop and tune motion planning and control systems (e.g., PID/MPC), trajectory generation, and state estimation
-
Build perception pipelines (camera/LiDAR/IMU), sensor calibration, sensor fusion, SLAM, and localization
-
Validate in simulation (e.g., Gazebo) and on hardware; close sim-to-real gaps with testing, logging, and root-cause analysis
-
Optimize latency and resource usage (CPU/GPU) and meet embedded/real-time constraints where required
-
Drive engineering best practices: code reviews, CI, reproducible builds, and reliability metrics
Required Qualifications
-
Mid-senior experience shipping robotics/autonomy features into production environments
-
Strong C++ and Python skills with modern debugging/profiling practices
-
Hands-on ROS/ROS2 architecture experience and message-based system design
-
Robotics fundamentals: kinematics, dynamics, control theory, estimation, SLAM/localization, planning
-
Experience with sensors (cameras, LiDAR, IMU, encoders) and robust perception/sensor fusion
-
Proven ability to diagnose failures from logs/telemetry and improve robustness under real-world noise
Preferred
-
Nav2, MoveIt, planners/controllers; learning-based perception and deployment
-
Embedded Linux, hardware bring-up, motor drivers, industrial protocols
-
Safety/fault detection, redundancy strategies, fleet telemetry, OTA updates
Compensation
Base pay range:
$30–$50 per hour
(USD), depending on skills and experience.
How To Apply
Apply on Rex.zone with your resume and a short summary of robotics systems you have shipped (robot type, autonomy stack, sensors, and outcomes). Include links to relevant code, demos, publications, or simulation projects.
