Lead Engineer - Robotics & Autonomous Systems (m/f/d)

What we offer Work in an international, agile and ambitious team creating the future of autonomous systems Grow your career in  a  expanding and ambitious engineering team Build innovative products using  state-of-the-art  technologies in AI, robotics, and autonomy  Benefit from a steep learning curve and continuous development Enjoy team events and a strong, collaborative culture Your mission Join Autonomous Teaming Solutions and build next-generation autonomous robotic systems for demanding real-world environments. You will take end-to-end technical ownership and responsibility of a mission-critical robotics product where perception, system performance, and reliability directly impact operational success.  Working closely with product leadership, you will translate customer requirements into a technical strategy, define the engineering roadmap, and lead execution from architecture through deployment to delivery.  This is a role for builders with a extreme ownership and focus mindset and braveness to decide. We believe technical leaders should be embedded to the code, challenge assumptions, validate ideas in the field, and lead by example. You won't just define the technical direction, you'll build it alongside your team.  Your Mission  Own the technical vision, architecture and development of a complex autonomous robotics product. Translate operational requirements by customers into clear technical goals and engineering milestones. Define the technical roadmap and drive execution from concept to the field. Make key technical decisions across  perception , sensor  integration  and robotics software applications. Lead by example through hands-on software engineering and system integration. Guide and mentor a multidisciplinary engineering team, fostering technical excellence and ownership. Challenge complexity, prioritize what matters, and focus the team on delivering the next milestone. Validate solutions through real-world testing and continuously improve system performance. Collaborate with other internal tech teams to capitalize on synergies. Report on and evaluate technical challenges and work closely with the CTO on solutions. Your profile At least  5–6 years of experience  building robotics, autonomous or real-time systems. You already build a successful company, product or project in a similar field. Strong experience in robotics  perception , sensor  integration  and system architecture. Excellent C++ skills, with solid experience in  ROS2 ,  Linux  and Python. Hands-on experience integrating sensors such as LiDAR,  cameras  or IMUs. Experience taking complex systems from concept through deployment to product. A hands-on technical leader who enjoys co-creation alongside the team. Extreme ownership mindset with the ability to make pragmatic technical decisions under uncertainty. Excellent communication skills and the ability to drive technical discussions and align and motivate…
