Trainee Robotics Engineer Localization information

What is the difference between Trainee Robotics Engineer Localization vs Trainee Robotics Engineer Control?

AspectTrainee Robotics Engineer LocalizationTrainee Robotics Engineer Control
Required CredentialsDegree in Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or related field; basic programming skillsSimilar educational background; focus on control systems and programming
Work EnvironmentResearch labs, development centers, field testingDevelopment labs, simulation environments, real-time testing
Industry UsageUsed in autonomous navigation, mapping, and sensor integrationApplied in motion control, system regulation, and automation

Both roles involve working with robotics and require similar educational backgrounds. Localization focuses on enabling robots to understand their position in space, while control emphasizes managing robot movements and behaviors. The choice depends on whether the focus is on positioning and mapping or on controlling robot actions.

Job description

ICON is looking for a Senior Robotics Software Engineer to join our Software team in Austin, TX. As a Senior Robotics Software Engineer, you will help develop and maintain robotic control software for all of ICON's robotic systems. You will be responsible for developing high-performance C++ software to drive complex arm motions, integrating real-time sensor data, and ensuring reliable motion planning. This role is based at ICON's Austin, TX headquarters, and will report to the Director of Embedded Software Engineering.
RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Design, develop, and optimize high-performance C++ software for controlling and coordinating large-scale robotic arms.
  • Develop robust motion planning and trajectory generation algorithms to safely navigate industrial arms through complex workspaces.
  • Implement real-time sensor fusion and state estimation algorithms (using sensors like IMUs, LiDAR, etc.) to improve arm localization and end-effector precision.
  • Program robotic arm motions in coordination with other systems.
  • Develop and maintain simulated environments and automated test frameworks to support continuous integration and system verification.
  • Lead system integration and validation efforts across hardware and software.
  • Participate in architecture decisions for controls and electrical systems, including component selection and standardization.
  • Participate in design & code reviews to maintain consistency and high-quality output.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
  • Masters Degree or higher in Software Engineering, Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of professional experience in robotics software development.
  • Expert-level proficiency in modern C++ (17 or newer) and Python within a professional robotics software development environment.
  • Deep foundational understanding of robotic arm kinematics (forward and inverse), multi-body dynamics, and motion planning.
  • Hands-on experience with robotic platforms, sensors, actuators, localization, perception, and control systems.
  • Practical experience designing and optimizing sensor fusion and state estimation algorithms (e.g., Kalman Filters).
  • Strong knowledge of autonomy algorithms, robotics frameworks (such as ROS), and simulation environments.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • Experience programming industrial robots in high-level languages.
  • Experience in formal control theory and linear algebra.
  • A general understanding of how to manage redundant kinematic chains or stabilize dynamic systems.
  • Proven track record of delivering products to end users and production environments.
  • Familiarity with hardware design, prototyping, and manufacturing processes.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and a strong analytical mindset to identify issues, propose innovative solutions, and make data-driven decisions.
  • Ability to earn trust, maintain positive and professional relationships, and contribute to a culture of performance.
