How is it like to work at Perceptyne?

At our core, we like to build things, we evangelize great ideas, and we are grounded.

At Perceptyne, we greatly value these dichotomies:

• Having experience while not losing a first principles approach.
• Having a large vision while not losing attention to detail
• Working on disruptive tech while hitting the market ASAP

Work Description

As a Robotics Research Engineer, you will be involved in building the software stack for Perceptyne’s Humanoid / Semi-Humanoid . Your work will span research, design and development of algorithms for motion planning and control. You shall develop scalable software architectures for deploying Humanoid/Semi-humanoid robots in the real world with focus on reliability and speed. You will be joining a fast-paced startup where your contributions will directly shape the product and the future of robotic manipulation -expect challenges, learning, and growth.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop motion planning and control algorithms for dual arm dexterous robots.
• Develop and maintain scalable software that can be deployed in real world.
• Optimize software for real-time performance.
• Test and verify algorithms and software on physical robots and simulations.
• Diagnose and resolve issues in complex, cross-domain systems.
• Engage in wide range of tasks across the robotics-system ranging from conducting research, testing & benchmarking algorithms, developing software, hardware system

setup and software deployment.

• Stay up-to-date with the recent advancements in the fields of Robotics and be able to translate them to software for testing and prototyping.

Requirements

• Bachelor's / Master’s degree in Computer science/ Electrical/Electronics/Communications/Instrumentation Engineering.
• 3+ years of experience in developing software for robots (Experience working on manipulators is a plus).
• Excellent C++ and Python programming skills. Real world experience writing multi-threaded applications is a plus.
• Hands-on experience with ROS/ROS 2 and frameworks such as Moveit, Nav2 etc.
• Hands-on experience with planning frameworks like OMPL.
• Hands-on experience with sensors like Depth Cameras, Lidars etc.
• Strong fundamentals in Robotic Manipulation (Kinematics, Jacobians, Dynamics, Trajectory Generation etc.), AMR (Mapping, Localization, Navigation etc.) and Strong foundational understanding of mathematical concepts including matrix operations, transforms, coordinate frames etc.
• Strong fundamentals in physics, with a well-developed intuitive understanding of core principles.

Qualities we value

• Passion for Robotics and AI, with a deep curiosity for solving real-world problems.
• Strong bias for action - you don’t wait for perfect conditions to execute.
• A proactive, go-getter attitude with a willingness to take initiative and drive projects forward.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively across cross-functional teams.
• Relentless problem-solving drive, with the grit and attitude to break down and overcome challenges that initially seem insurmountable.
