Software Engineer Industrial Robot Control

Skills

About the Role

You will develop C++ control software for industrial robot arms, including kinematics, trajectory generation, compliance control, and multi-body coordination. You will tune controllers on physical hardware, profile real-time performance, automate software and hardware tests, participate in code reviews, and evaluate emerging control methods.

Requirements

• Degree in computer science, control engineering, mechatronics, or a related engineering field.
• One to three years of professional C++ development experience, or equivalent relevant academic or project work.
• Working understanding of robot kinematics and dynamics.
• Background in control engineering, including exposure to parameter identification and controller tuning.
• Working proficiency in modern C++, including thread-safe and exception-safe code.
• Comfort with Linux build, test, and debugging toolchains.
• Ability and willingness to troubleshoot physical robotic hardware.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop C++ software for the robot control stack, including kinematics, trajectory generation, and compliance control.
• Support parameter identification and controller-gain tuning on physical hardware.
• Profile control software and maintain required timing margins.
• Write automated software tests and define hardware testing procedures.
• Validate control software hands-on with robotic hardware.
• Participate in code reviews and provide feedback on code quality.
• Investigate and evaluate emerging robotic control methods and algorithms.

Benefits

• Corporate Benefits Program covering health, mobility, and learning for €100 net per month.
• Modern office facilities with a rooftop terrace.
• Free drinks and fruit.
• Regular company events.
