Job Description

Join Rex.zone to design, build, test, and improve production-grade robotic systems across perception, localization/SLAM, motion planning, and control. You will validate performance in simulation and on real robots while improving reliability, latency, and safety.

What You Will Do

  • Design and implement robotics software modules in ROS/ROS2
  • Build perception pipelines using computer vision and sensor fusion (camera/LiDAR/IMU)
  • Develop localization, mapping, and navigation stacks (SLAM, path planning)
  • Tune and validate control loops for stability and tracking performance
  • Integrate hardware drivers and timing-critical components
  • Create simulation scenarios and run sim-to-real validation
  • Define test plans, logging, debugging workflows, and performance metrics

Required Qualifications

  • Mid-senior experience building robotics systems in production or advanced prototypes
  • Strong Python and C++ skills for robotics development
  • Hands-on ROS/ROS2 expertise (nodes, topics, services, TF, rosbag)
  • Knowledge of state estimation and sensor fusion concepts (EKF/UKF)
  • Ability to debug distributed systems using logs, traces, and profilers
  • Understanding of safety considerations, failure modes, and field reliability

Preferred

  • Experience with Gazebo, Isaac Sim, MuJoCo, or similar simulation tools
  • Familiarity with embedded systems and real-time constraints
  • Exposure to CI/CD, automated testing, and reproducible builds for robotics

Compensation

Competitive hourly base pay: $30–$50 per hour (USD), depending on experience.
