Robotics Engineer

About the role

Robotics Engineer (Remote, Full-Time) Robotics Engineer jobs in Brasília on Rex.zone focus on designing, building, and deploying robotic systems that integrate perception, planning, and control into reliable real-world automation. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve robot autonomy, simulation-to-real transfer, and system performance across mobile robots, manipulators, and industrial automation stacks.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement ROS2 nodes, message interfaces, and lifecycle-managed components
• Build and tune motion planning pipelines (trajectory generation, obstacle avoidance, navigation)
• Improve localization, mapping, and navigation stacks (SLAM, EKF/UKF fusion, Nav2 configurations)
• Integrate sensors (camera/IMU/LiDAR/encoders) with reliable timestamping and calibration
• Develop simulation environments and test harnesses (Gazebo/Ignition) for simulation-to-real transfer
• Optimize real-time performance through profiling, latency reduction, and robust logging
• Create CI-friendly tests (unit/integration/HIL when available) and clear documentation

Requirements

• Mid-Senior experience building robotics systems in production or advanced prototypes
• Strong C++ and Python experience for robotics software development
• Hands-on ROS/ROS2 experience (TF, URDF/Xacro, rosbag, distributed debugging)
• Knowledge of kinematics, dynamics, control systems, and motion planning fundamentals
• Experience with sensor fusion and state estimation

Skills

• Gazebo/Ignition, Isaac Sim, or similar simulators
• Computer vision (OpenCV, calibration) and/or LiDAR processing
• Embedded Linux, real-time constraints, and hardware interfacing
