What is a remote robotics job?

A Remote Robotics job involves designing, programming, monitoring, or maintaining robotic systems from a remote location. This can include teleoperating robots, developing automation software, or troubleshooting robotic hardware via cloud-based platforms. Remote robotics professionals work in industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, aerospace, and logistics. These roles often require expertise in robotics engineering, programming, and network communications. Advances in AI and IoT have made remote robotics more accessible and crucial for automation and efficiency.

What are some typical challenges faced by professionals in remote robotics roles?

One of the most common challenges in Remote Robotics is troubleshooting hardware and software issues without direct, on-site access, which requires strong analytical and remote diagnostic skills. Professionals in this field often navigate time zone differences and coordinate closely with local technical staff or end users to resolve issues quickly. Effective communication and clear documentation become critical to ensure remote instructions are followed accurately. Additionally, staying up-to-date with evolving technologies and security protocols is essential for maintaining optimal system performance and data safety.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the remote robotics position, and why are they important?

To thrive in Remote Robotics, you need a strong foundation in robotics engineering, computer programming (especially Python, C++, or ROS), and experience with remote system monitoring and troubleshooting. Familiarity with teleoperation platforms, cloud-based control systems, and remote diagnostics tools is essential, with relevant certifications such as CSWA or ROS Developer often preferred. Excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective communication are valuable soft skills for collaborating across distributed teams. These skills ensure you can efficiently design, monitor, and maintain robotic systems from a distance while collaborating with colleagues and clients in dynamic environments.

Can a remote robotics engineer work remotely?

Yes, many robotics engineering roles can be performed remotely, especially those focused on software development, system design, and simulation. However, some tasks requiring hands-on work with hardware or on-site testing may require in-person presence or occasional visits to labs or facilities.

Job description

OverviewToggle is a venture-backed robotics and software company building technology for the construction and fabrication industries, with a globally distributed team across the U.S. and Europe. We have deployed robotic systems in real-world rebar production and are now building a new category of industrial software: automated feature inspection and dimensional verification for high-mix fabrication. We've validated our sensing and verification stack in rebar and are expanding into broader fabrication environments (metal, glass, GFRC, wood), where quality control remains manual and inconsistent. We're looking for a 3D Computer Vision Engineer on a contract basis to help shape software that turns raw 3D scan data into reliable, production-grade measurements and pass/fail decisions in real-world environments.
What you'll do
  • Develop pipelines for:
    • Point cloud processing, filtering, and denoising
    • Scan-to-CAD alignment (ICP + feature-based methods)
    • Feature extraction and primitive fitting (planes, edges, holes, slots, chamfers, fillets)
    • Dimensional measurement, tolerance evaluation, and per-point deviation field computation
  • Translate raw geometry into clear inspection outputs (pass/fail, deviations, annotations)
  • Generate per-point deviation heatmaps for visual review in the 3D viewer
  • Handle calibration, drift, noise, and incomplete data
  • Ensure robustness across materials, lighting, and shop-floor conditions
  • Work directly with QC managers on the shop floor to validate and iterate
  • Ship working software on a short feedback loop prototype, test in the field, harden
  • Support live customer deployments
    • Help define how UI/UX is optimized for operators
    • Contribute to end-to-end workflows, not just isolated algorithms
  • This is primarily a remote contract role, with approximately 20% of working time hands-on at a U.S. or European facility working directly with the 3D camera system to develop and test software against real hardware. Infrequent travel to client sites for system setup and validation is expected as needed.
Who You Are

You think in geometry, not just models, and care deeply about accuracy, robustness, and repeatability. You're comfortable moving from research to production and don't get stuck chasing perfect theoryyou ship working systems, learn from real-world data, and iterate quickly.

Required Skills & Experience
  • Degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or related field
  • Strong experience in 3D computer vision / geometry processing
  • Proficiency in Python; C++ a strong plus
  • Experience shipping production-quality computer vision or measurement pipelines (not just research code)
  • Hands-on experience with:
    • Real sensor data (not just simulated or academic datasets)
    • Point cloud libraries (PCL, Open3D, or similar)
    • Registration (ICP, feature-based alignment)
    • Geometric primitive fitting (RANSAC, circle/cylinder/plane fitting)
    • Sensor calibration and depth systems
Nice to have
  • Inspection, metrology, or manufacturing systems experience
  • Parsing CAD models (DXF, STEP) and aligning scan data to CAD geometry
  • Deployment of systems into production environments
  • Robotics or industrial automation background
Why Toggle
  • Work on unsolved problems in the physical world and built environment
  • Define and build new systems used directly in factory and construction pre-fab production
  • Human centric with a priority on safety and usability
  • High ownership and fast iteration
  • Small, technical, global and collaborative team

Toggle is an equal opportunity employer. We encourage candidates of all backgrounds to apply.
