(Senior) Robotics Vision & Perception Engineer (m/f/d)

Title: (Senior) Robotics Vision & Perception Engineer (m/f/d) Location: Munich, Germany (Hybrid) [Batch Robotics]( is revolutionizing how robots operate in factories — not through rigid programming or teaching by human demonstration, but with smart perception and AI intelligence. We are a team of 4 motivated people with +25 years of experience in industry and robotics. Our mission is to make robots smarter and more flexible, enabling batch-size-1 automation for surface treatment economically. Our technology helps factories in Europe to remain competitive with intelligent robotics. We are now looking for a **Robotics Vision & Perception Engineer (m/f/d)** with technical excellence and entrepreneurial drive to join us in developing the next generation of AI-driven robotic systems! ## Tasks * **Multi-Camera & Sensor Fusion:** Architect, integrate, optimize and evaluate multi-camera vision and other sensor hardware perception systems. This includes developing robust multi-sensor calibration, synchronization, and visual-inertial or multi-modal fusion strategies that withstand environment variability and industrial noise of factories. * **Data Pipelines & ML Ops:** Build end-to-end data pipelines spanning real-world vision and sensor (e.g. force, structured light, laser scanners) data ingestion, dataset management, and synthetic data generation via simulation tools. * **3D Perception & Shape Reconstruction:** Design, implement, and optimize computer vision and perception sensor software algorithms and ML systems to automate the generation of a digital twin of the workspace and workpiece under real-world factory constraints. * **Factory Integration:** Deploy trained models into low-latency, production-grade robotics systems, ensuring real-time inference and seamless communication of the perception stack with robot control and policy pathways. * **Evaluation & Industrial Robustness:** Run permanent, rigorous evaluation experiments, failure mode analyses, and benchmarking against accuracy and latency thresholds to guarantee fail-safe operation on the physical factory floor. ## Requirements * **Research Background:** Master’s degree in CS, Engineering, or a related field, alongside 3+ years (Senior: 10 years) of industrial experience or a completed Ph. D. in computer vision. You are capable of transferring new research papers in working code and can optimize for industrial-grade reliability. * **Core Technical Stack:** Deep, hands-on experience with 3D point cloud data and geometric libraries (e.g. Open3D), working with concepts like geometric registration, shape reconstruction, spatial queries, and surface segmentation. * **Coding Excellence:** Strong proficiency in Python with agentic programming; CUDA, C++ and/or Rust is an advantage. * **Hands-On Attitude:** Proven track record of deploying industrial vision systems and handling noisy, temporal, or large-scale data. Comfortable deploying systems on-site in the field yourself and continuously improving the hardware-software perception stack. * **Soft Skills:** Entrepreneurial drive, solution-oriented mindset, high agency and the ability to take direct responsibility in a fast-paced startup environment. ## Benefits * **Impact:** The unique opportunity to rethink industrial automation for batch-size-1 with cutting-edge AI to maintain European manufacturing sovereignty. * **Growth:** Challenging tasks and impactful projects alongside experts in a high-growth VC-funded startup. * **Ownership:** opportunity to actively shape the company's technical direction; potential shares in the company. * **Environment:** A modern, central workspace in Munich with a collaborative, international culture. Want to shape the future of industrial robotics? We look forward to meeting you!
