Your mission & challenges

• Technical roadmap: You own the technical roadmap for perception, mapping and navigation, from research prototypes to production on real robots.

• Build & lead the team: You hire a team of perception, SLAM and navigation engineers, mentor them and support each person’s growth.

• Multi-sensor perception: You drive perception across multiple sensors (RGB-D, stereo, LiDAR, IMU, wheel odometry), including calibration, time synchronisation and sensor fusion.

• SLAM, localisation & map management: You lead the development of SLAM, localisation and map management (2D/3D, semantic and long-term maps, multi-session mapping, map updates in changing environments).

• 3D scene understanding: You own object detection, segmentation, pose estimation and scene representations (occupancy, voxel, mesh, neural fields) that feed manipulation and planning.

• Navigation: You drive global and local path planning, obstacle avoidance, navigation around dynamic and human obstacles, and whole-body motion in cluttered spaces.

• Real-time performance: Together
