What is the difference between Senior Robotics Engineer Localization vs Robotics Software Engineer?

AspectSenior Robotics Engineer LocalizationRobotics Software Engineer
Required CredentialsBachelor's or Master's in Robotics, Computer Science, or related; experience in localization algorithmsBachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related; programming skills
Work EnvironmentRobotics development labs, field testing, autonomous vehicle companiesSoftware development teams, robotics companies, research labs
Industry UsageAutonomous vehicles, mobile robots, dronesRobotics applications across industries, including manufacturing and service robots

While both roles involve robotics software development, Senior Robotics Engineer Localization specializes in developing algorithms for determining a robot's position within its environment, often requiring expertise in sensor fusion and mapping. Robotics Software Engineers focus broadly on creating software for robot control, perception, and navigation. The localization role is more specialized, whereas the software engineer role covers a wider range of robotics software development tasks.

Job description

Position: Senior Robotics Engineer, Perception/Computer Vision

Location: Warren, Michigan

Duration: 12+Months with possible extensions

Main Skills: Senior Robotic AI-Perception Engineer (AI/ML, perception, computer vision, Python, TensorFlow and/or PyTorch)

About the Role:

We are seeking a Senior Robotics Engineer, Perception/Computer Vision to join our Advanced Development team within the Autonomous Robotics Center (ARC). In this role, you will develop perception features that enable robots with advanced capabilities such as object detection, obstacle avoidance, path optimization, and manipulation. This position combines artificial intelligence and computer vision techniques applied to real-world scenarios in dynamic manufacturing environments.

At ARC, we leverage advanced robotics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to solve complex manufacturing challenges at unprecedented scale. Joining our organization provides the opportunity to work on cutting-edge technologies, contribute to innovation, and collaborate with a diverse team of experts. You will play a key role in advancing our automation capabilities and ensuring our robotic systems remain at the forefront of the industry.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design, develop, and implement perception algorithms for segmentation, scene understanding, object detection and localization, classification, and dynamic tracking.
  • Integrate AI and computer vision algorithms with ROS (Robot Operating System) for real-time deployment on autonomous robots (e.g., mobile manipulators).
  • Design and maintain cloud-based pipelines for data collection, annotation, preprocessing, model training, and evaluation.
  • Collaborate with hardware engineers, software engineers, and domain experts to integrate with mapping, motion planning, and controls.
  • Develop offline tools to test and validate perception models in both simulation and real-world environments.
  • Stay updated with emerging technologies and best practices in robotic perception; lead and participate in academic and industrial collaborations.
  • Generate intellectual property, document results, and publish papers.

Required Qualifications:

  • Passion for robotics and a strong desire to accelerate the application of robotics with AI.
  • Master’s or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field (or Bachelor’s degree with exceptional track record).
  • 3+ years of experience developing and deploying AI/ML, perception, and computer vision (e.g., mono and stereo cameras, RGB-D, event camera, LiDAR) on robotic systems.
  • Proficiency in Python or C++ with hands-on experience in deep learning frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch.
  • Solid understanding of robotics fundamentals, perception and navigation methods (e.g., SLAM, planning), and their typical strengths and shortcomings.
  • Consistently seeks opportunities and embraces challenges to drive self-growth and improvement.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Ph.D. in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Robotics, Computer Vision, or a related research field.
  • Hands-on robotics experience, such as autonomous vehicles (AV), ADAS, or industrial automation systems in manufacturing environments.
  • Experience with robotics frameworks such as ROS/ROS2 (e.g., Nav2, MoveIt).
  • Understanding of CI/CD pipelines and modern software development practices.
