Principal Algorithm Engineer / Robotics Algorithm Lead
Location: Wilmington, MA
Department: Robotics Systems Solution
Role Summary:
Lead the design, implementation, and deployment of state-of-the-art algorithms across the full robotics stack, with a primary focus on Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR), Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), and embedded AI solutions. This position combines deep technical expertise, cross-functional leadership, and a passion for solving complex real-world problems by bridging advanced algorithmic research with large-scale, production-ready systems.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Architect, develop, and optimise SLAM, motion control, path planning, and behavioral decision-making algorithms for AMR and robotics platforms.
  • Lead the integration of multi-modal sensor data (iTOF, RGB, LiDAR, IMU) for robust perception, mapping, and navigation in dynamic environments
  • Drive innovation in embedded Edge AI, leveraging GPU-accelerated frameworks (CUDA, cuVSLAM, RTAB-MAP, ORB-SLAM) and machine learning/reinforcement learning to enhance robot performance
  • Oversee low-level motor control development (position, velocity, torque loops) and system-level AI integration.
  • Utilise and extend 2D/3D simulation platforms (Gazebo, MuJoCo, IsaacSim) for algorithm development, validation, and real-world deployment support
  • Collaborate with systems, mechanical, hardware, and software teams to optimise hardware-software integration and system performance
  • Conduct rigorous testing and debugging in simulation and real-world scenarios; troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues
  • Champion technical documentation, standards compliance, and safety best practices across the team

  • Mentor and develop engineering talent in advanced robotics and AI/ML techniques
  • Proactively engage with customers to translate their challenges into scalable, high-impact solutions; ensure customer success from prototyping through deployment
  • Represent the Robo8cs team in external forums: file patents, publish research, speak at industry conferences, and contribute to open-source projects

Required Qualifications:
  • MS or PhD in Robo8cs, Computer Science, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, or related field
  • 8+ years of experience in robotics algorithm development, with a focus on AMR/SLAM and embedded systems
  • Advanced proficiency in C++, Python, and ROS/ROS2; hands-on experience with TensorFlow, PyTorch, and simulation platforms
  • Proven track record delivering production-grade algorithms and hardware-software solutions in robotics
  • Strong analytical and creative problem-solving skills; hands-on approach to prototyping, testing, and troubleshooting
  • Experience leading and mentoring technical teams; ability to communicate complex ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
  • Demonstrated ability to bridge technical breakthroughs with business value and customer impact

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience with large-scale robotics deployments (industrial, commercial, or field)
  • Prior patent filings, publications, or open-source contributions in robotics/AI
  • Familiarity with safety standards and regulatory requirements in robotics

Why Join Us?
  • Shape the future of autonomous robotics at scale

  • Work on impactful projects with cutting-edge hardware and real-world datasets
  • Collaborate with world-class engineers in a culture that values innovation, autonomy, mentorship, and measurable business impact
  • Competitive compensation, benefits, and professional growth opportunities
