If you enjoy solving complex robotics challenges using modern C++, ROS2 and real-world control systems, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Be Doing

• Developing modern C++ software for autonomous robotic systems
• Building and maintaining ROS2-based robotic applications
• Working on motion planning, trajectory generation and robot control
• Integrating perception, sensor and vision systems
• Collaborating with software, electronics and mechanical engineering teams

What We're Looking For

• Strong modern C++ experience
• Commercial ROS2 experience
• Robotics, automation or autonomous systems background
• Linux development experience
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills

Nice To Have

• ROS2 Control
• Docker
• Embedded Linux
• Distributed xwzovoh systems
• Computer vision or perception systems

Benefits

• Hybrid working
• Profit share / share options
• Flexible working hours
• Long-term career progression
• Cutting-edge robotics projects
• Collaborative engineering environment
