Robotics Engineer

Robotics Engineer (Remote, US)

Rex.zone is hiring a Remote Robotics Engineer aligned with the San José robotics market. You will support end-to-end robotics engineering across perception, planning, and control with a strong focus on simulation testing, QA evaluation, log analysis, and safety validation to improve real-world system reliability.

What You Will Do

• Build and maintain robotics software components in C++ and Python
• Integrate sensors (camera, IMU, LiDAR) and perform sensor fusion
• Develop and tune motion planning, control loops, and autonomy behaviors
• Run simulation experiments and hardware-in-the-loop style tests where applicable
• Define acceptance criteria, create repeatable test harnesses, and track metrics
• Analyze logs, trajectories, and edge cases to reduce failure rates and improve coverage
• Contribute to dataset review and training-data quality for learning-based components
• Write documentation, test plans, and runbooks for production-grade deployment
  
  

Required Qualifications

• Mid-senior experience delivering robotics systems
• Strong C++ and Python skills
• Experience with ROS2 (nodes, topics, transforms, lifecycle) or equivalent middleware
• Knowledge of kinematics/dynamics, control systems, motion planning, and SLAM/localization concepts
• Ability to design tests, debug from logs, and communicate engineering tradeoffs
  
  

Preferred

• Computer vision for robotics (calibration, tracking, detection)
• Simulation tooling, CI for robotics builds, telemetry/profiling
• Safety validation, fault injection, reliability engineering
• Evaluation protocols and labeling/guidelines compliance for data workflows
  
  

Compensation

Hourly pay range: $30–$50/hr (USD), based on scope, impact, and alignment to role requirements.

How To Apply

Apply via Rex.zone and include a resume plus a concise summary of robotics projects (navigation, manipulation, perception, controls). Share links to code or technical write-ups if available.
