Job Description

Robotics Engineer (Montevideo) — Remote (US)

Join Rex.zone to design, implement, and validate robot capabilities for autonomous systems in a remote, full-time role. You will improve navigation and manipulation performance through simulation, on-robot testing, and data-driven iteration, and may contribute to AI/ML training and evaluation workflows.

Key Responsibilities

Build and maintain ROS2 nodes, services, and message pipelines for robotic behaviors
Implement localization and mapping using SLAM and sensor fusion
Develop motion planning and control modules; tune controllers (PID/MPC concepts) for stability
Integrate cameras, LiDAR, IMU, and wheel odometry with calibration and timestamping
Create simulation-based test plans (e.g., Gazebo) and automate regression testing
Define QA metrics (success rate, collision rate, drift, latency) and drive performance improvement
Diagnose field issues using logs/telemetry; reproduce failures and ship fixes with documentation
Support safety validation, edge-case testing, and reliability engineering

Required Qualifications

Mid-Senior experience shipping robotics software/autonomy features
Strong Python and C++ skills
Hands-on ROS/ROS2 experience (launch, TF, nav stacks, bagging, diagnostics)
Understanding of kinematics, control fundamentals, and motion planning
Experience with computer vision/perception and sensor fusion
Strong testing discipline (simulation + unit/integration tests + QA evaluation)

Tools & Workflows

ROS2, Python, C++, Linux, Git-based CI/CD, Gazebo simulation, logging/telemetry, test automation, and structured QA evaluation.

Pay range: $30–$50 per hour.
