We are partnered with a robotics business in the Cambridge area who are developing next-generation autonomous platforms. They are looking for a Perception Software Engineer - SLAM to design and implement software that enables advanced robotic perception and navigation in real-world agricultural environments.

In this Perception Software Engineer - SLAM role, you will:

Design, develop, and test software for autonomous robotics applications, specifically for raspberry-picking robots

Develop ROS2 image pipelines and integrate vision systems

Implement SLAM, mapping, and landmark recognition to navigate complex bush and field environments

Collaborate with electrical, electronics, and software teams to develop world-class systems

Work on motor control loops to ensure accurate robot motion

Interface with cameras using CUDA for high-performance vision processing

Support improvements across robot navigation and environmental interaction

The ideal Perception Software Engineer - SLAM will have:

Strong C++ experience, ideally with a focus on vision systems and image processing

Experience working in Linux or similar development environments

Exposure to SLAM, mapping, and autonomous navigation techniques

Familiarity with ROS2 pipelines, motor control loops, or robotics platforms

CUDA experience is desirable but not essential

This is a fantastic opportunity to join an innovative team building real-world robotic systems. The role offers a competitive salary, flexible working, a collaborative and creative environment, and the chance to participate in profit sharing as the company grows.
