Job Description

About the role

We are seeking passionate engineers to join our R&D team, focused on AI-driven and knowledge-based applications. The role focuses on developing and translating AI models and algorithms to enhance intelligence for robotic/ automation systems, integrating perception, planning, and control modules into a cohesive system.

You will work closely with a multidisciplinary team of engineers and researchers to develop advanced robotic/ automation solutions that combine machine learning, computer vision, and control systems to achieve autonomous and intelligent automation.

Roles and responsibilities

• Conduct research and develop AI methods for information extraction across diverse data types, including video, image, and text
• Contribute to the design and implementation of knowledge-based applications, such as graph database systems and related software tools
• Translate and optimise intelligent algorithms into robotic/ automation platforms to enhance intelligence- adaptive control and task execution
• Develop and maintain the AI-robot interface, ensuring robust communication between software intelligence and physical systems
• Support prototype development, testing, and validation of robotic/ automation solutions in lab and production environments
• Prepare technical documentation, reports, and presentations for internal and external stakeholders
• Participate in system deployment, commissioning, and field validation of AI-automation systems

Job Requirements

• Strong foundation in AI/ML algorithms and computer vision techniques such as object detection and action recognition, applied to automation in perception, decision-making, and motion planning.
• Fundamental understanding of software engineering practices, including Git/version control and modular code development
• Familiarity with deep learning architecture (e.g. CNNs, Transformers) and knowledge graph technologies (e.g., Neo4j, RDF, or graph databases) will be an advantage
• Proficient in Python, with experience in machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, or Scikit-learn
• Basic understanding of automation systems and mechanical design principles
• Proficiency in one or more of the following areas:
• Robotic manipulation and motion planning (industrial or collaborative robots)
• C++, or ROS (Robot Operating System)
• Reinforcement learning or intelligent control
• Path planning and trajectory optimization
• AI model optimization and deployment for real-time systems

Desirable Skills (Preferred but not required):

• Hands-on experience with robot platforms (e.g., UR, ABB, KUKA, FANUC) or robotic simulation tools (e.g., Gazebo, Isaac Sim, V-REP).
• Experience developing or deploying AI models on robotic/ automation platforms
• Familiarity with industrial automation, disassembly, or intelligent manufacturing systems

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in AI, Mechatronics, Robotics, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• Relevant experience, ideally in manufacturing industry or functions, is preferred
