About the role
Robotics Engineer Jobs in Quito (Remote, Full-Time) Design, integrate, and deploy robotic systems that combine perception, control, and autonomy. You will ship production robotics capabilities from simulation to real hardware, improving performance, safety, and reliability through metrics-driven iteration and strong engineering practices.
Key Responsibilities
- Own robotics software components and deliver measurable improvements to robot behavior and uptime
- Develop ROS/ROS2 nodes and packages for perception, planning, and control
- Implement and improve SLAM/localization and sensor fusion pipelines
- Integrate and calibrate sensors (LiDAR, cameras, IMU) and manage coordinate frames
- Validate in simulation (e.g., Gazebo/Ignition) and on real hardware; support sim-to-hardware workflows
- Build automated tests, logging/telemetry, debugging tools, and regression test suites
- Tune controllers and motion behaviors; optimize real-time performance and reliability
- Contribute to safety and operational readiness reviews; collaborate across distributed teams
Required Qualifications
- Mid-Senior experience building and debugging robotics systems
- Strong C++ and Python skills
- Practical ROS/ROS2 development experience, including tooling, launch, and debugging
- Background in at least one: localization/SLAM, motion planning, or control systems
- Familiarity with Linux environments, networking concepts, testing, and code review workflows
- Clear documentation and effective remote communication
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with Nav2, MoveIt, OpenCV, PCL, Eigen, and common robotics middleware patterns
- Experience with perception stacks (detection/tracking) and camera/LiDAR calibration
- Embedded/edge compute experience (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson, ARM) and performance profiling
- Exposure to CI/CD, fleet telemetry, and deployment support for real-world robotics
Compensation & Work Arrangement Remote, FULL_TIME role. Hourly base pay range: $30–$50/hr .
Pay varies by experience and scope.
How To Apply Apply via Rex.zone and highlight shipped robotics work (ROS2 packages, sensor integration, reproducible tests, and simulation-to-hardware validation) with metrics such as navigation success rate, localization accuracy, latency, and failure recovery behavior.
