Job Description WHAT YOU WILL DO Manage the electronic and network-layer integration of multi-component systems (LiDARs, thermal cameras, and telemetry sensors) into single-board edge computers (NVIDIA Jetson AGX Thor/Orin). Configure and program embedded microcontrollers (ESP32, STM32) to ensure seamless hardware-layer execution and control. Select, test, and deploy appropriate hardware adapters, signal converters, and power interfaces (e.g., PoE, serial converters) to link diverse hardware blocks. Establish and configure low-latency data and video streaming links from cameras to onboard systems, defining and verifying exact data outputs, formats, and frame rates. Configure and maintain onboard local networking architecture (switches, local routing, IP assignments) and low-level communication protocols (ESP-NOW, MQTT, Serial/UART, gRPC) dedicated to robot device telemetry. Troubleshoot protocol conflict issues and signal drops between hardware endpoints and edge servers in the lab. WHAT YOU WILL NEED 3–5 years of hands-on experience as an Electronics, Embedded, or Hardware Integration Engineer. Solid experience with networking connections (LAN, switches, routing) and integrating hardware components via adapters/converters. Strong knowledge of how hardware components communicate and how to extract/verify raw data streams from sensors and IP cameras. Proficiency with microcontrollers (ESP32, STM32) and low-level protocols (ESP-NOW, MQTT, UART). Fluency in both Greek and English to ensure seamless local teamwork and documentation. High autonomy, a strong builder mindset, and the practical ability to troubleshoot complex physical-layer setups under laboratory conditions. NICE TO HAVE Previous experience working directly within a robotics R&D environment or UAV manufacturing. Familiarity with NVIDIA container toolkits or how edge devices interface with simulation platforms (NVIDIA Omniverse / Isaac Sim). Basic scripting skills (Python, Bash) for hardware diagnostic automated routines. WHAT IS THERE FOR YOU Compensation: upper-quartile for the Greek market; On-site work in the Athens office; AI-native environment: real challenges in the AI and Robotics sphere, possibility to work with the technologies from the top-tier companies (with a unique opportunity to work directly with state-of-the-art electronics, sovereign compute infrastructure, and world-class hardware components from global leaders like NVIDIA); Growth: Possibility to get training from the Robotics companies Culture: engineering-first, high autonomy, low bureaucracy – your ideas shape the company's AI direction.
