Senior Robotics Engineer

Location: Vadodara, Gujarat, India

Experience: 2–5 Years (2–3 Years Mandatory)

Type: Full-time | On-site

At Wastefull Insights, we’re building robots that solve a very real problem—waste. Based in Vadodara, our team works on AI-driven sorting systems that combine computer vision, automation, and robotics to make waste management smarter and more efficient.

This isn’t theoretical work—you’ll see your code and designs running on real machines, handling real-world challenges every day. We’re a small, fast-moving team where ideas matter more than hierarchy, and everyone gets their hands dirty solving problems.

If you enjoy building things from scratch, experimenting, and working on meaningful problems that impact sustainability, you’ll fit right in.

As a Senior Robotics Software Engineer, you will lead the design and deployment of advanced robotic systems, working across perception, control, and full system integration.You will be building AI-powered sorting systems deployed on industrial robotic lines at facilities.
