Jobs in Switzerland
We are hiring a Robotics SWE
⏰ Start date: ASAP
📍Zürich, Switzerland (on-site, remote not possible)
🦾 Full-time (100%)
💼 Your role
Deploying robots means more than training the latest policy. As a robotics SWE, you will work across the stack and define how developers, operators, and customers interact with our product. You know that a hardware abstraction layer and subsystem APIs are the foundation to a system in which a growing team of engineers can contribute without slowing down and that doesn't break when hardware changes. You value delivering a polished product just as much as building a reliable, maintainable system.
What you'll be doing:
Develop the robotics stack from low-level drivers and behavior trees to health management and software configuration
Implement data and telemetry ingestion from the robots to the cloud
Build internal tools such as a teleoperation interface, robot fleet management, and data dashboard
Build classical robotics autonomy pipelines such as 3D mapping, localization, and autonomous navigation
Drive CI/CD pipelines, test frameworks, and developer tooling. You will establish practices ranging from memory safety to architectural guidelines
🤖 You
What you should have:
3+ years in a professional SWE environment, preferably in Robotics, Automotive, or Aerospace
Strong modern C++ experience and experience in Python
Solid fundamentals of Linux such as systemd, time synchronization, schedulers and networking fundamentals (TCP/UDP)
Experience in debugging complex issues using core dumps, debuggers (gdb), and application profiling (perf, ftrace)
Experience in test automation (unit tests, integration tests)
Worked on embedded platforms and sensor integration
These skills are a plus:
Experience in Rust, ROS2, or Zenoh
Experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and simulation-in-the-loop (SIL) testing
Experience with NVIDIA Jetson
Experience in common robotics algorithms (SLAM, pointcloud processing, control theory, computer vision)
As the first dedicated robotics SWE, you will have a massive impact on our engineering culture. As the team grows, you can remain a high-impact generalist and work across all layers of abstraction or specialize and lead individual subsystems.
Don't worry if you don't hit every check-mark. We value engineers who care about building great products and can learn to get things working. Just give it a go and apply.
