Robotics Engineer Jobs Colombia

Robotics Engineer (Remote, Full-Time)

Rex.zone is hiring for a remote Robotics Engineer role supporting US-based engineering teams. You will build and improve production-grade robotics software for autonomous systems spanning perception, localization/SLAM, motion planning, and controls, with a strong focus on reliability, testing, and validation in simulation and hardware-in-the-loop.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain ROS/ROS2 components for perception, planning, and control
• Integrate sensors (LiDAR, cameras, IMU, encoders) including calibration, sensor fusion, and time synchronization
• Build and tune SLAM/localization pipelines and navigation behaviors
• Implement motion planning (trajectory generation, collision checking, recovery behaviors)
• Develop and tune control algorithms (PID, MPC, or classical control) for safe operation
• Create simulation and validation workflows using Gazebo/Isaac Sim; define metrics and regression tests
• Establish HIL/field testing, log analysis, incident retrospectives, and reliability improvements
• Contribute to CI/CD, code quality, documentation, and long-term maintainability
  
  

Required Qualifications

• Mid-Senior experience delivering robotics/autonomous systems in production or advanced prototypes
• Strong Python and C++ proficiency for robotics software development
• Hands-on ROS/ROS2 experience (tf, navigation stacks, message definitions, launch tooling)
• Understanding of estimation, coordinate frames, uncertainty, and practical deployment constraints
• Linux-based development, debugging/profiling, and log-driven troubleshooting
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in logistics/warehouse, industrial automation, manufacturing, agriculture, or field robotics
• Safety and reliability practices (fail-safes, watchdogs, redundancy)
• Docker and CI pipelines; reproducible builds
• Simulation robustness techniques (Gazebo/Isaac Sim plugins, domain randomization)
  
  

Compensation

Competitive hourly pay: $30–$50/hr (based on experience and scope).
