Vom Konzept her ähnlich wie ein ros2_control Hardware-Interface, eine OROCOS RTT-Komponente oder ein Vendor-SDK-Adapter - nur deutlich vertikaler integriert.\n\nMiddleware Wiring für deine Plattform: Typischerweise arbeitest du mit ROS 2 Launch Graph + ros2_control YAML + DDS QoS auf Plattformen mit Standard-Middleware; mit OROCOS RTT Pipelines auf Plattformen mit Hard-RT-Control-Loops, die über die ROS 2 Callback-Timings hinausgehen; oder mit Apex.OS auf SIL/PLd-zertifizierten Setups (Industrial MM). Dazu kommen Sensor-Topic-Verdrahtung und ObsAssembler-Integration - unabhängig von der Middleware. Du arbeitest eng mit dem Robotics Middleware Engineer an der übergreifenden Architektur.\n\nOperational State Machine: BOOT → HOMING → OPERATIONAL → FAULT → E-STOP → RECOVERY für deine Plattform, inkl. aller Transition Guards, Entry/Exit-Actions und Timeout-Handling.\n\nMode Switching: Auswahl aktiver Controller, Absicherung von Mode-Wechseln, sichere Mode-Ein-/-Austritte sowie ein Gravity-Compensation-Only-Modus.\n\nPower-On/Off-Sequenzen: Boot-Reihenfolge, Aktivieren/Deaktivieren der Drives in der richtigen Reihenfolge, Orchestrierung des Homing-Prozesses und kontrolliertes Shutdown.\n\nWatchdog & Fault Management: Klassifizierung von Fehlern (recoverable vs. sicherheitskritisch), Auswahl von Recovery-Maßnahmen und Eskalation bis zum E-Stop.\n\nRobot-Level Health Monitoring: Aggregation von Diagnosen, Joint-Zuständen, Temperaturen, Grenzwertnähe und Kommunikationslatenzen.\n\ngRPC Server Implementation: Mode-Commands, State-Abfragen, Fault-Acknowledgement sowie Streaming von Joint States, Betriebszuständen und Diagnosen.\n\nProto Message Co-Ownership: Gemeinsame Verantwortung für die Robot-Control-API (Protobuf) mit dem Platform Architect und dem Robot Client SDK Engineer.\n\nPlatform Integration Test Suite: End-to-End CI-Testabdeckung in Simulation (MuJoCo / Isaac Sim) und auf echter Hardware.\n\nAuf was können wir uns freuen\nStarkes C++ - moderne Features (C++17 oder neuer), Realtime-sichere Patterns und sauberes Memory-Handling.\n\nState Machine Design Erfahrung für komplexe Robotik-Systeme: klare State-Trennung, Transition Guards, Fault Handling. Erfahrung mit hierarchischen State Machines (Boost.SML, sc::statechart, BehaviorTree.CPP oder vergleichbar).\n\ngRPC und Protobuf: Implementierung von API-Servern, Streaming RPCs und backward-kompatible Weiterentwicklung von Protos.\n\nErfahrung mit Robot-Abstraction-Layern aus der Praxis - über einen der folgenden Wege (kein Framework ist ein Muss): ros2_control Hardware-Interfaces (Jazzy oder Humble); MoveIt2 Hardware-Anbindung; OROCOS RTT für Hard-RT Pipelines; Apex.OS auf realer Plattform; Vendor SDKs wie Franka, UR, KUKA, ABB etc.; oder eigene interne Abstraktionslayer aus früheren Projekten.\n\nErfahrung, eine echte Roboterplattform End-to-End zum Laufen zu bringen - nicht nur Simulation. Gutes Gefühl für Hardware-Integration: Timing-Annahmen, Sensor-Kalibrierung, Fault-Szenarien.\n\nNice to Have\nHands-on mit mehr als einem der oben genannten Abstraction-Ansätze - Multi-Stack-Erfahrung beschleunigt dein Onboarding.\n\nROS 2 (Jazzy oder Humble) in der Praxis - aktuell der häufigste Middleware-Stack bei NEURA.\n\nOROCOS RTT Erfahrung, wenn Hard-RT-Anforderungen es notwendig machen.\n\nApex.OS Kenntnisse für die SIL-zertifizierte Industrial-MM-Konfiguration.\n\nCluster-spezifische Tiefe:\nMobile Manipulator: Nav2 oder vergleichbarer AMR-Stack, Docking-Zyklen, optional PROFINET\n\nLegged: Floating-Base State Estimation, Gait Controller Integration, Fall Detection\n\nCobot: ISO 10218 / ISO/TS 15066\n\nErfahrung mit mehreren Robotik-Plattformen (State-Machine-Logik für zwei oder mehr Systeme umgesetzt).\n\nFTA oder FMEA für State-Machine-Design in der Robotik.\n\ngRPC-Gateway oder REST/gRPC Bridging für kundennahe APIs.\n\n* Hinweis zur internen Stack-Erfahrung: Direkte Erfahrung mit NEURAs interner RAL ist kein Muss. Der Einstieg erfolgt über den Code - nicht über Vorwissen. Wenn du vergleichbare Erfahrung mitbringst, findest du dich dank der bestehenden Patterns schnell zurecht, egal aus welcher Middleware-Welt du kommst.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4376,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"German","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Robotics AI","Collaborative Robots (Cobots)","Humanoid Robots"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-13T02:53:41Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":15,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.407,"p_room":0.36,"age_days":148,"expected_fill_days":84,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:tail","crowd:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-28T05:59:10Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/neura-robotics-robot-platform-engineer-mensch","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/neura-robotics-robot-platform-engineer-mensch.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-28T15:39:51Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":18447,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-29T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":48149},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=48149"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fneura-robotics-robot-platform-engineer-mensch"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fneura-robotics-robot-platform-engineer-mensch"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fneura-robotics-robot-platform-engineer-mensch"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/neura-robotics-robot-platform-engineer-mensch\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fneura-robotics-robot-platform-engineer-mensch"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":2414476}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"neura-robotics.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":2414476},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
