Robotics Software/Hardware Engineer

As a Robotics Software Engineer at N Robotics, you’ll work at the core of our autonomy stack. Designing and developing software that makes our robots move, perceive, and interact safely in the real world.

You’ll take ownership across the full software lifecycle : from concept and algorithm design to real-world deployment on our robotic platforms.

Your work will span motion planning, perception, sensor fusion and navigation, integrating directly with our hardware and testing in the loop.

You’ll collaborate with a cross-functional team of mechanical, electrical and systems engineers to create tightly integrated robotic solutions.

This role is ideal for someone who wants to own code that runs on real robots , move fast in a hands-on environment and help shape the foundations of a deep-tech robotics company from the inside out.

Design and develop advanced software for robotic control systems, including motion planning, perception, and navigation.

• Implement and optimize algorithms for real-time data processing, sensor fusion, and autonomous decision-making.
• Collaborate closely with hardware engineers to integrate software with robotic components, actuators, and sensors.
• Build and maintain ROS 2 nodes, APIs, and supporting software infrastructure.
• Develop tools for data capture, visualization, simulation, and CI/CD pipelines (simulation and hardware-in-the-loop).
• Stay current with emerging robotics technologies, frameworks, and software engineering practices.
• (Strong programming skills in Python, C, and C++, with at least 3 years of experience in ROS (1/2) and Linux environments.

Experience with real-time data processing, sensor fusion, and autonomous control algorithms.

Commitment to software quality, including testing, and CI/CD workflows.

Independent, hands-on problem solver with a high degree of initiative and responsibility.

You thrive in startup chaos and you don’t wait for perfect specs; You communicate openly, challenge ideas (including your own), and learn fast from real-world data.

We’re an ambitious deep-tech startup rethinking mobile robotics. Your code runs on real robots - not months later, but as part of short, hands-on build-test cycles.

Fully equipped lab and shop (3D printers, CNC mills, test rigs) plus quiet focus areas. Supportive, respectful team culture with regular team events and 30 days of vacation.

Competitive salary, great tools and the autonomy to shape how we build.

Send your CV or LinkedIn profile with 2–3 lines on why this role excites you.

Optional but helpful: a brief note on a perception/SLAM project you shipped (goal, stack, your contribution, result) and links to code/papers/demos if available.

We’re a Berlin deep-tech startup building mobile robots that move safely and reliably in the real world. Our core focus is legged mobility and robust, field-ready systems from prototype to production.

We work hands-on, fast and on-site in Berlin.
