Robot Perception/ML Engineer (f/m/d) Autonomous Mobile Robots

About This Opportunity

Our talent team is representing a confidential robotics organization based in Munich. They are seeking an experienced Robot Perception/ML Engineer to develop and deploy advanced perception systems for autonomous mobile platforms. This is an exciting opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology that enables navigation and manipulation in complex industrial environments.

Responsibilities

• Develop and improve perception models for autonomous mobile robots, including object detection, obstacle classification, and free-space estimation
• Drive data-centric machine learning by scaling automated labeling, leveraging fleet data, and closing the sim2real gap through synthetic data and simulation-based evaluation
• Own model performance by defining benchmarks, tracking key metrics, and continuously improving real-world and benchmark results
• Deploy and validate perception models within a ROS-based robot software stack, ensuring reliable performance on real vehicles
• Collaborate closely with navigation, controls, and fleet software teams to deliver robust perception capabilities that enable autonomous operation

What We're Looking For

• 2–5 years of professional hands-on experience in robotics perception, computer vision, or machine learning
• Strong Python skills; experience with C++ is a plus
• Hands-on experience training and evaluating neural networks (PyTorch or similar frameworks) with a data-centric approach to improving model performance
• Practical experience with synthetic data, simulation for ML, auto-labeling, active learning, or domain adaptation
• Rigorous approach to model evaluation and understanding of how to measure real-world performance effectively
• Familiarity with ROS and Linux-based development environments
• Pragmatic engineering mindset with a focus on shipping, measuring, and iterating
