Lead Robotics Engineer
Location: Bengaluru (On-site) | 5-day work week
Compensation: ₹40–60 LPA (Cash) + ₹0–20 LPA (ESOPs) — stretchable for exceptional candidates
About the Role
We are looking for a Lead Robotics Engineer to lead a team of 4–5 engineers building the core navigation, manipulation, and software systems that power our autonomous robots. This is a hybrid managerial + individual contributor role — you will set technical direction while remaining hands-on in solving hard robotics problems.
Must-Haves
- Minimum 8 years of industry experience
- Strong robotics background is a must
- Solid experience and fundamentals in ROS is a must
- Experience and knowledge in navigation and manipulation preferred
- Robot learning experience is a plus
- Simulation experience is optional (nice-to-have)
What You'll Do
- Lead and mentor a team of 4–5 robotics engineers, driving technical roadmap and execution
- Design, build, and maintain ROS-based robotics software stacks for navigation and manipulation
- Work closely with AI, perception, and hardware teams to integrate autonomy stacks into deployed robots
- Drive design decisions balancing performance, reliability, and safety for real-world construction site deployment
- Own end-to-end delivery — from prototyping and simulation testing to on-site validation
- Stay hands-on with coding, debugging, and system-level problem solving alongside managing the team
Pay: ₹4,000,000.00 - ₹6,000,000.00 per month
