The role involves designing and developing solutions for various space robots and testing robotics solutions both in simulation and in the real world.

Responsibilities
• Designing and developing solutions for different kinds of space robots (mobile robots, robotic arms, drones)
• Building multiple rapid prototypes as well as production-ready solutions
• Testing robotics solutions both in simulation and in the real world
• Designing automated robotic systems used to increase the production and precision levels within a specific industry
• The scope of activities might not be limited to space domain only
• Performing regular research of the latest trends and modern approaches in the robotics domain (navigation, sensing, decision making, performance of robotic mechanism components or systems, etc.)
• Taking part in pre-sales activities

Skills
• Experienced in architecture and development of application software for flight and ground systems
• Involved in technical pre-sales activities (presentations, workshops, etc.), C-level presentation skills
• Directly experienced writing satellite or spacecraft software
• Experienced in simulation and automation of manufacturing processes such as manufacturing of rockets and rocket components, such as engines, etc
• Experienced in verification, validation, and integration of flight software
• Feeling at home programming in C/C++ and Python for embedded Linux systems
• Experienced in working from requirements to space qualified products being launched into space
• A person with hands-on, can-do attitude, team player, great interpersonal skills, and ability to collaborate effectively
