(Senior) Robotics Testing and Applications Engineer (m/f/d)

About the role Agile Robots SE is a high-tech startup based in Munich. Our mission is to bridge the gap between AI and robotics by developing robotic systems that offer state-of-the-art full-body force sensitivity and world-leading vision intelligence. This unique combination of technologies enables us to provide intelligent, easy-to-use and affordable robotic solutions with safe human-robot interaction. We are a dynamic and innovative software development company dedicated to pushing the boundaries of technology. We specialize in creating cutting-edge solutions that transform industries and redefine user experiences Your Responsibilities Design, develop, and execute structured test plans for robotic components, modules, and fully integrated systems Validate functionality, robustness, and performance of software and hardware in real robotic platforms Develop Python-based test scripts, tools, and automation frameworks to improve testing efficiency and coverage Contribute C++ code when required for low-level testing, tooling, or integration support Analyze robot behavior and system performance, identifying root causes for issues related to kinematics, motion planning, control, perception, or hardware interaction Evaluate and debug complex robotic behaviors such as singularities, joint limit violations, trajectory instabilities, and configuration inconsistencies Work with URDF models, coordinate transformations, and robot descriptions to validate system correctness Support development and refinement of application demos, internal showcases, and customer-facing use cases• Collaborate closely with software, electronics, controls, and mechanical teams to reproduce issues and validate fixes Document test procedures, results, defects, and system performance in a clear and structured manner Contribute to continuous improvement of testing strategies, coverage, and automation infrastructure• Support field tests, prototype validation, demos and integration activities when required Essential Skills Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical field Minimum 5 years of experience in robotics testing, applications engineering, integration, or system validation roles Strong hands-on experience writing Python for testing, automation, data analysis, and robot interaction Experience with C++ is a plus (especially for writing tests, tools, or interfacing with robot drivers) Solid understanding of core robotics concepts, including kinematics, dynamics, singularities, joint limits, URDFs, coordinate transformations, and motion constraints Experiencein testing and validating software and hardware modules in integrated robotic systems Ability to design, execute, and analyze structured test plans — including edge case testing, regression testing, and real-world scenario validation Strong debugging skills across software and hardware layers …
