What is the difference between Urgently Hiring Robotics Engineer Localization vs Robotics Software Engineer?

AspectRobotics Engineer Localization
Primary FocusDeveloping and implementing localization algorithms for robots
Required SkillsRobotics, sensor fusion, SLAM, programming (C++, Python)
Work EnvironmentResearch labs, robotics companies, industrial settings
CertificationsRobotics certifications, computer vision, embedded systems

While both roles involve robotics and programming, a Robotics Engineer Localization specializes in localization and mapping algorithms, whereas a Robotics Software Engineer focuses on developing software for robot control and systems integration. The localization role emphasizes sensor data processing and spatial awareness, making it distinct in its technical scope.

Job description

Your Impact at LILA

Lila's Autonomous Science Platform is building a closed-loop, AI-driven scientific facility, and inter- and intra-cell transport in the AISF is a critical bottleneck on that path. We're bringing on a Robotics Engineer on a temporary basis to help unblock it.

Sitting on the Next Gen Robotics team and based at Alewife, you'll work hands-on across the robotics stack - physical hardware and simulation - to integrate, tune, and debug systems that have to run reliably in production. The work spans ROS2 development, motion planning, and real-world hardware integration, with upstream science projects (including 1023-009-GRIDv1) gated on what you ship. This is a 3-month contract with potential to extend and potential to convert to full-time based on performance and ongoing need.

What You'll Be Building

  • Develop ROS2 nodes, launch files, and message/service/action interfaces to support inter- and intra-cell transport workflows
  • Bring up and integrate physical robotic systems - including arms, AMRs, or mobile manipulators - into the AISF environment
  • Build and maintain simulation environments in Isaac Sim and/or Gazebo to de-risk hardware deployments before they hit the floor
  • Debug hardware and software integration failures end-to-end: kinematics, calibration, timing, and sensor issues
  • Contribute domain depth in motion planning, navigation, localization, perception, or sensor fusion as the team's needs evolve
  • Document configurations, failure modes, and operating procedures so the team can scale and maintain what you deploy

What You'll Need to Succeed

  • Bachelor's degree or higher in Robotics, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field, or equivalent hands-on industry experience
  • Strong experience with ROS2: node development, launch files, message/service/action interfaces
  • Solid understanding of robot kinematics - forward/inverse kinematics, Jacobians, transforms
  • Proficiency in at least one robotic simulation platform: NVIDIA Isaac Sim and/or Gazebo
  • Demonstrated experience working with physical robots - robotic arms, AMRs, and/or mobile manipulators
  • Depth in at least one of: motion planning (MoveIt2, trajectory generation), autonomous navigation (Nav2), localization (SLAM, AMCL), perception (object detection, depth sensing), or sensor fusion (IMU, LiDAR, camera integration)

Bonus Points For

  • Experience deploying robotic systems to production or field environments
  • Strong Python and/or C++ in a ROS2 context
  • Ability to debug hardware/software integration issues independently
  • Experience in lab automation or scientific environments
