Our engineering team is changing gears to meet the growing needs of our customers. The team works closely with some of the premier enterprise customers, solution developers and system integrators in Japan to build state-of-the-art robotics solutions by leveraging rapyuta.io, our cloud robotics platform, and the surrounding ecosystem. Our forte is multi robot collaboration and distributed decision making, and our mission is to build products that help our customers create robust, scalable and flexible collaborative robots solutions. We are looking for passionate problem solvers with experience in any of the fields of swarm robotics, Game AI, multi robot route planning, constraint programming or traditional distributed systems.
In this role, you will own key components of our distributed intelligence stack. You will be designing, implementing, testing and maintaining:
- the global and local behaviour controllers that govern the decision making for the fleet of autonomous AMRs.
- the global path planners and executors that control AMR traffic.
- different task allocation strategies and their optimizations.
- our production grade open source distributed intelligence framework, ALICA.
In addition, you will be expected to:
- mentor juniors in their day to day deliverables.
- do architecture and code reviews for the fellow teammates.
- contribute to core team processes and to company-wide efforts
